I have been doing research and found that this chemical is being put in preventatives for flea and tick used on dog and cats. this drug has proven to be quite potent and causes severe allergic reactions in cats and dogs some have even died from it I've attached in many links that will hopefully guide you in the right direction of putting how toxic this can be To domesticated pets and humans alike thank you.
