Deltamethrin is a pyrethroid ester insecticide. Deltamethrin plays a key role in controlling malaria vectors, and is used in the manufacture of long-lasting

some aerosols as a Cypermethrin substitute in developing countries. Deltamethrin, dibromovinyl derivative of pyrethrin Dimefluthrin Esfenvalerate Etofenprox

populations have evolved resistance to insecticides. Seong et al., 2010 find deltamethrin resistance provided by an allele – L925I – of the voltage gated sodium

York City bed bugs have been found to be 264 times more resistant to deltamethrin than Florida bed bugs due to mutations and evolution. Products developed
