For over 20 years, the Pyrethroid Working Group has been the recognized authority for research and information regarding pyrethroid-based pesticides. As the leading manufacturers of pyrethroid pesticides, we work with federal, state and local regulators to ensure our products are used properly.
Pyrethroids are synthetic chemicals based on naturally-occurring pyrethrins, found in chrysanthemums.
Our ongoing programs include Apply Responsibly, a stewardship program aimed at helping gardeners to use pesticides properly.
Additionally, we are actively engaged in educating pest management professionals and promoting the responsible use of pyrethroid pesticides through the program PWG2PMP.
We appreciate your interest and hope that you will find this information beneficial to your understanding of pyrethroids.
