Dogs typically experience symptoms within the first hour of intake, which may include some or all of the following mild symptoms: excessive salivation (from licking the bitter product) Hashing out or gagging (it seems that they have something stuck in their throat) Vomiting.
Sneezing, eye tearing, coughing, and even having trouble breathing are all side effects of pyrethrins. Rarely do severe symptoms appear.
A contact insecticide, such as an organophosphate or pyrethroid, may not work well in those conditions because the rain will wash it from the leaves before the insects are able to move around in the crop.
The natural pesticide pyrethrin is also present in certain products made with neem oil.
Pyrethrin poisoning can be fatal to aquatic life, as evidenced by cases in species like lake trout. While most mammals and birds can rapidly metabolize pyrethrins, fish and other aquatic invertebrates are unable to do so, which results in a build-up of hazardous byproducts.
In an experiment where it was exposed to sunlight, permethrin was administered indoors next to a window. 60% of the permethrin that was administered was remaining on the surface after 20 days. When applied to plants, permethrin may remain on the leaves for one to three weeks.
A synthetic version of the natural pesticide pyrethrum, permethrin is a pyrethroid. Chrysanthemums contain pyrethrum. Many pests, including fleas, ticks, cockroaches, flies, and mosquitoes, can be eliminated by permethrin. Piperonyl butoxide is typically found in permethrin-containing products (PBO).
Perchloroethylene is a common insecticide that is safe to use around most animals, however it is extremely harmful to cats. Perchlorin poisoning in cats is one of the most often reported poisoning cases. Using these products on cats is NOT safe.
In general, dogs are relatively safe when using pyrethrins/pyrethroids; however, cats and fish are extremely susceptible to these treatments.
