Pyrethrin Liquid, with the unique chemical identifier CAS: 8003-34-7 (also commonly referred to as Pyrethrins or Pyrethrum Extract), is a natural, broad-spectrum insecticidal liquid mixture extracted from the dried flower heads of Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium, a daisy-like plant native to East Africa and widely cultivated in Australia, Kenya, and other major pyrethrum-producing regions. Classified as a botanical biopesticide, it is not a single pure compound but a refined blend of six active insecticidal esters, namely Pyrethrin I, Pyrethrin II, Cinerin I, Cinerin II, Jasmolin I, and Jasmolin II, which work synergistically to deliver fast pest knockdown and control effects.
Physically, technical-grade Pyrethrin Liquid typically appears as a pale yellow to amber viscous liquid with a mild characteristic floral odor, and it is widely used as the core active raw material for various pyrethrin-based formulations, including the 1.5% Pyrethrin Aqueous Emulsion featured in this report. It is well-known for its rapid environmental biodegradability, breaking down completely within days under sunlight and air exposure, leaving no persistent toxic residues in soil, water, or crops. Compared with synthetic pyrethroids and conventional chemical insecticides, it has extremely low acute toxicity to humans, mammals, and most beneficial insects when used in accordance with standard application guidelines, while maintaining potent knockdown activity against a wide range of flying and crawling pests such as mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches, aphids, and stored-product insects.
As a cornerstone raw material in the green pest control and organic agriculture sectors, Pyrethrin Liquid (CAS: 8003-34-7) meets strict regulatory standards for biopesticides set by the U.S. EPA, EU Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR), and other global authorities. It serves as the foundational active ingredient for low-concentration, eco-friendly insecticide products, balancing high pest control efficacy with environmental sustainability and user safety—key traits that have driven its widespread adoption in residential pest control, commercial sanitation, organic farming, and public health vector control programs worldwide.
