Pyrethrin and Permethrin are Not the Same Thing

Recently i noticed a client is treating her cat for fleas with a spray that contains both Pyrethrin and Permethrin. Pyrethrin is safely used for feline flea control, while permethrin is toxic to cats, and can be deadly. Safe flea control depends on knowing the difference. Read this article. It has great info. I have helped treat many cats for Permethrin toxicity. It's not pretty .. http://www.suite101.com/content/pyrethrin-and-permethrin-are-not-the-same-thing-a146310
