Usage

What is Fipronil?

Fipronil is widely used as an insecticide and acaricide. It is a non-systemic insecticide commonly employed to control various insects and arthropods such as ants, cockroaches, fleas, ticks, beetles, and others. Fipronil is effective against many pests because it disrupts their nervous system function, leading to paralysis and death.

Fipronil is also a common ingredient in products designed to control fleas and ticks on pets, often found in flea collars, sprays, spot-on treatments, and shampoos for dogs and cats. Its mode of action involves killing fleas and ticks on pets through contact or ingestion, thereby protecting pets from flea and tick infestations.
