Some common examples of insecticides are pyrethroids (e.g. permethrin), organophosphates (e.g. malathion), carbamates (e.g. carbaryl), and neonicotinoids (e.g. imidacloprid). These insecticides are used to control pests on crops, in homes, and for public health purposes.
Herbicides come in many forms. There are activity herbicides like contact and systemic. There are use herbicides like pre-plant incorporated, pre-emergent and post-emergent.
N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide
Also known as DEET
This is the common pesticide used to kill mosquitos during the summer.
A herbicide is a compound that is toxic to plants. Examples of herbicides are Aim EW, Finale, Trimec 899 Broadleaf Herbicide and AllDown Green Chemistry Herbicide.

Nicotine is a poison commonly found in insecticides and tobacco. It is a highly toxic substance that can be harmful to humans if ingested or inhaled in large amounts.
Inorganic insecticides are synthetic chemicals that are not derived from living organisms. They typically contain compounds like sulfur, arsenic, or fluoride, and work by directly affecting the nervous or respiratory systems of insects. Examples include boric acid, diatomaceous earth, and silica gel.
Brand names of neonicotinoid insecticides include imidacloprid, clothianidin, thiamethoxam, and acetamiprid. These insecticides can impact bee populations by harming their nervous systems, affecting their ability to forage, navigate, and reproduce. This can lead to decreased bee populations and overall health.
Common side effects of household insecticides on human health include skin irritation, eye irritation, respiratory problems (such as coughing or difficulty breathing), and headache. Prolonged exposure or misuse of insecticides can potentially lead to more serious health issues such as neurological effects or organ damage. It is important to follow safety guidelines and use insecticides in a well-ventilated area to minimize health risks.
