- Fipronil is an insecticide for broad spectrum that damages
the central nervous system of insects by blocking the passage of ions
of chlorine by the receptors GABA and glutamate chloride
channels (GluCl), components of the central nervous
system.
- This causes the over-excitation of the muscles and
nerves of infected insects, causing them to death.
- Fipronil is
used in fire ant baits,
cockroach baits and gels, flea products for
dogs and cats, ant baits and gels, termite control products, turf and
golf course products, and agricultural
products.
- Fipronil
is marketed under the trade name Regent for use against major
lepidopterous and orthopterous pests on a wide range of field and
horticultural crops and against coleopterous larvae in soils.
- According to a
review of fipronil’s environmental fate conducted by researchers from
the University of Greenwich and a group of other United Kingdom research
institutes, fipronil is “persistent” in soil.
- It
is also employed for cockroach and ant control under the trade names
Goliath and Nexa including in the US, where it is also used against
pests of field corn, golf courses and commercial turf (trade name Chipco
Choice).
- It
has been used under the trade name Adonis for locust control in
Madagascar and in Kazakhstan.
- Due to slow
absorption of fipronil
through the gut, symptoms of intoxication may
be delayed several
hours to one day.
- Direct contact
to the skin or eyes may occur while applying fipronil products.
- Pets may be
exposed to fipronil by products that are applied to their skin for flea
and tick treatments.
- People may also
be exposed to fipronil when applying flea and tick products. It may also
be possible to swallow fipronil if the hands are not washed following
skin exposure.
- Exposure to
fipronil can be limited by reading the pesticide label and following all
of the direction.
