About Cypermethrin Insecticide
About Cypermethrin Insecticide
How Cypermethrin Works | Dual-Action Neurotoxic Mode of Action
Cypermethrin belongs to the class of synthetic pyrethroid insecticides, specifically designed to mimic the natural pyrethrins extracted from chrysanthemum flowers—but with improved stability, potency, and residual effect.
Once applied, Cypermethrin works by targeting the insect nervous system. It disrupts the normal function of voltage-gated sodium channels in nerve cell membranes. These channels are responsible for sending electrical signals through the insect’s body. When cypermethrin binds to these channels, they remain open longer than normal, causing:
- Uncontrolled nerve firing
- Muscle spasms and paralysis
- Rapid insect death
Two Routes of Entry: Contact and Stomach
Cypermethrin delivers its insecticidal effect in two ways:
- Contact Poisoning: Insects that come into direct contact with treated surfaces absorb the active ingredient through their exoskeletons. This leads to immediate knockdown, even in flying pests like mosquitoes and flies.
- Stomach Poisoning: Insects that chew on treated plants or surfaces ingest the compound, resulting in quick systemic disruption of motor function and feeding behavior.
This dual action increases the likelihood of killing even small or partially exposed pests.
Fast Knockdown. No Systemic Absorption.
- Insects exposed to cypermethrin often become paralyzed within minutes, stop feeding, and die within hours.
- Unlike systemic insecticides, Cypermethrin does not move inside the plant, making it ideal for surface-targeted pests.
- Its action is contact-based, ensuring pests that rest or feed on treated foliage, walls, or grain surfaces are eliminated.
This fast, non-systemic neurotoxic action makes cypermethrin pesticide an excellent choice for situations requiring quick knockdown and short re-entry intervals.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is Cypermethrin insecticide used for?
Cypermethrin is a fast-acting insecticide used to control a wide range of pests in agriculture, stored grain protection, public health, and household pest control. It effectively targets aphids, beetles, caterpillars, thrips, mosquitoes, flies, and cockroaches, among others.
Q2: What does Cypermethrin kill?
Cypermethrin kills both chewing and sucking insects, including:
- Bollworms, cutworms, beet armyworms
- Aphids, whiteflies, leafhoppers
- Rice stem borers, thrips
- Mosquitoes, flies, ants, and roaches
It works by disrupting the insect nervous system, causing paralysis and death within hours.
Q3: How does Cypermethrin work?
Cypermethrin affects the sodium channels in insect nerve cells, causing prolonged nerve excitation. This leads to muscle spasms, loss of coordination, and insect death. It acts through contact and ingestion.
Q4: What is the recommended Cypermethrin dosage per litre?
For most field applications using 10% EC:
- Use 1–1.5 ml per litre of water for general crop protection
- For heavy infestations, increase to 2 ml per litre
Always follow the product label and adjust according to pest pressure and crop sensitivity.
Q5: How long does Cypermethrin last after application?
Cypermethrin typically provides residual control for 1–3 weeks depending on:
- Weather (sunlight and rainfall may shorten persistence)
- Surface (porous vs. non-porous)
- Pest pressure
In protected indoor spaces, its effectiveness may last longer.
Q6: Is Cypermethrin safe for humans and animals?
When used according to instructions:
- Low toxicity to humans and warm-blooded animals
- Always wear protective gear during application
- Highly toxic to fish and bees—avoid spraying near water bodies or during crop flowering
Q7: Can Cypermethrin be mixed with other pesticides?
Yes. Cypermethrin can be tank-mixed with many fungicides and insecticides like imidacloprid, mancozeb, or carbendazim. However, always conduct a jar test first to confirm physical compatibility and avoid mixing with alkaline substances.
Q8: Will Cypermethrin cause resistance in insects?
Like all insecticides, repeated use without rotation can lead to resistance. To prevent this:
- Rotate with insecticides from other classes (e.g., neonicotinoids, organophosphates)
- Do not exceed recommended application frequency

Q7: Can Cypermethrin be mixed with other pesticides?
Yes. Cypermethrin can be tank-mixed with many fungicides and insecticides like imidacloprid, mancozeb, or carbendazim. However, always conduct a jar test first to confirm physical compatibility and avoid mixing with alkaline substances.
Q8: Will Cypermethrin cause resistance in insects?
Like all insecticides, repeated use without rotation can lead to resistance. To prevent this:
- Rotate with insecticides from other classes (e.g., neonicotinoids, organophosphates)
- Do not exceed recommended application frequency
