Thank you very much Stephen. -----Original Message----- From: pestlist@googlegroups.com <pestlist@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Stephan Biebl Sent: Thursday, September 21, 2023 1:44 AM To: pestlist@googlegroups.com Subject: [PestList] AW: Use of Raid on Bontanical
Cheri, the pest control in Europe, had used chlorpyrifos a long time in the past with products like DURSBAN, EMPIRE (Dow) etc. But since 2008 the use of chlorpyrifos is not allowed as biocide here in Europe. My experience with chlorpyrifos (Empire 20 from DOW) was e.g. against bed bugs with a half-life with minimum 6-12 month. The brand RAID Spray (today as international products from SC JOHNSON and founded as PARAL in Germany) nowadays has modern active pyrethroid substances for short half-life against flies and wasps or longer half-life against other insects. The internet says, Raid insect-spray is used since 50 years and in the 70´s there were substances like DDT or Lindan inside the bottles. So it´s not sure, which substances were used in the 80´s.

I can not find any information about active ingredients they were using in the 80's. If you call them tell them who you are and where you are from and why you want to know they will probably get back to you with an answer. I have done that with companies before and they have been very helpful. There will also probably be a petrol base in there as well. JTV Joel Voron Colonial Williamsburg Foundation Conservation Dept.
