It does not possess the rapid "knockout “power of pyrethrum, but weight for weight its eventual killing power is greater. It is finding increased commercial use in household sprays (mixed with pyrethrum), in fruit sprays, and in cattle dips; the powdered root is also much used for dusting purposes.enhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/Journal ContributionDerrisInsecticidesCattleDippingdoi.org/10.1080/03670074.1940.11664046
