Metofluthrin is a pyrethroid used as an insect repellent.^[1] The vapors of metofluthrin are highly effective and capable of repelling up to 97% of mosquitoes in field tests.^[2] Metofluthrin is used in a variety of consumer products, called emanators, for indoor and outdoor use.^[3]^[4] These products produce a vapor that protects an individual or area. Effectiveness is reduced by air movement. Metofluthrin is neurotoxic, and is not meant to be applied directly to human skin.^[5]
