Excellent but, psst, you forgot to explain how the
antidote works. |
|
| |
The way I understand it (which may be not at all..) most insecticides are acetylcholinesterase blocking chemicals (basically nerve gas for insects). So perhaps Atropine would be the preferred antidote? |
|
| |
Not sure we want to make spraycans of atropine available to the general public... |
|
| |
...Does this rag smell like belladonna to you? |

But that's how it works: "Pssssst." |

[AusCan], if I did but have a hat, I would doff it to
you. |

|
| |
Most insecticides for domestic use are synergised pyrethrins. |
|
| |
Quite simply, the antidote is a carefully engineered pyrethrin antagonist, such that the original chemical is non-toxic and the breakdown products of the reaction between the antidote and the pyrethrin are also benign. |
|
| |
Small amounts of atropine and other beneficial compounds such as pralidoxime chloride, amyl nitrate and an number of proprietary molecu;es are included in the blend. |
|
| |
As far as I know, neither molecules nor earthly insects have either colons or semicolons. |
|
| |
That may be true but mosquitoes and wasps are still
aggressive, biting arseholes. |
