Pharmacological properties

Deltamethrin, which is part of Butox 7.5, has a wide spectrum of insectoacaricidal (contact and intestinal) action, is active against ticks, lice, flies and other blood-sucking insects. The mechanism of action of deltamethrin is the irreversible activation of sodium channels of nerve cell membranes, depolarization of cell membranes and blockade of nerve conduction, which leads to impaired motor reflexes, and, ultimately, causes complete paralysis and death of arthropods.
