A study of some insecticidal properties of a new pyrethroid, permethrin, showed that it was a highly effective insecticide at contact, superior in this respect to neopinamin for German cockroaches, houseflies and bedbugs and superior to sumithrin for German cockroaches. Combinations of permethrin with neopinamin displayed synergism. The most active combination contained permethrin and neopinamin in a ratio of 9:1. This combination surpassed in insecticidal activity the most effective combination of sumithrin with neopinamin.
