Permethrin and its associated end-use products : consultation document.: H113-27/2017-18E-PDF
"An evaluation of available scientific information has determined that under the proposed conditions of use, the human health and environmental risks estimated for permethrin meet current standards for most uses. As a requirement for the continued registration of permethrin, new risk-reduction measures are proposed for certain commercial-class end-use products registered in Canada. Additionally, the following uses are proposed for cancellation due to lack of data to assess their risks to human health: use in mushroom houses; application using foggers and hand-held mist sprayers/blowers; application of domestic-class products using foggers, hand-held mist sprayers/blowers. Permethrin is a broad spectrum synthetic pyrethroid insecticide. It is registered for use on a wide range of crops including grains and oilseeds, legumes, horticultural crops, mushroom houses, ginseng, greenhouse and field grown ornamentals as well as tobacco. It is also registered for use on livestock, companion animals, forestry and woodlots, feedlots, termite treatment, pet premises, kennels, indoors and outdoors of homes, agricultural, commercial and institutional building, military clothing, mosquito netting and to soil around honey bee hives"--p. 1, 2.
