Permethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide that acts by interfering with the normal functioning of insect nervous systems. It primarily affects sodium channels in nerve cells, prolonging the opening of these channels and leading to hyperexcitation of the nervous system. This disruption results in paralysis and ultimately death of the insect. Permethrin is often used for its effectiveness against a wide range of pests, including mosquitoes and ticks.
