Which product is known for being a synthetic pyrethroid?

Demon is known for being a synthetic pyrethroid, which are a class of insecticides modeled after natural pyrethrins but with enhanced properties. Synthetic pyrethroids are designed to be more stable and effective, particularly for controlling a broad range of pests in various environments. They work by targeting the nervous system of insects, leading to paralysis and eventually death.

In contrast, the other products listed fall into different categories. Malathion is an organophosphate insecticide that functions differently, primarily affecting the enzyme systems in insects. Hexaflumeron is a unique chemical compound that does not belong to the synthetic pyrethroid family. Avert, while used for pest control, is a specific formulation that may contain different active ingredients depending on the product, and it is not classified as a synthetic pyrethroid. Understanding these distinctions helps clarify why Demon is recognized specifically for its synthetic pyrethroid properties.
