Piperonyl butoxide

[Radagast]

Anyone familiar with this compound?
I bought it in a can of raid spray in combination with pyrethrin, the only form of the latter I could find.
From what I gather it’s not ULTRA toxic to humans, though I do plan to have it off my leaf before I harvest it.

The literature that I can find seems to suggest a very low human toxicity for both permethrin and piperonyl butoxide.

It’s quite safe for humans at the pesticide level. IIRC it’s not even a pesticide, rather it inhibits the some of the resistive mechanisms insects use to survive certain poisons, so you can have an effective product with lower concentration of the active pesticide.

I wouldn’t purposely smoke it, but I wouldn’t worry too much.

Sounds good, thanks all.
