Cypermethrin (Ref: OMS 2002) |
Last updated: 14/11/2024 |
(Also known as: cypermethrine) |
SUMMARY |
Cypermethrin is a broad-spectrum insecticide. It has a low aqueous solubility and is volatile. Whilst its chemical properties suggest that it should not leach to groundwater it has been detected. It is considered a serious marine pollutant. It is moderately persistent is soils but is likely to degrade moderately fast in water systems under daylight conditions. It is moderately toxic to mammals and there is some concern regarding its potential to bioaccumulate. Whilst it is an irritant, no serious human health issues have been identified. It is highly toxic to most aquatic species and honeybees. It is moderately toxic to earthworms but there is little risk to birds. |
Data alerts |
The following alerts are based on the data in the tables below. An absence of an alert does not imply the substance has no implications for human health, biodiversity or the environment but just that we do not have the data to form a judgement.
