Síntomas:

Síntomas de intoxicación con piretrina:

  • Pulmones y vías respiratorias
    • dificultad respiratoria
  • Sistema nervioso
  • Piel
    • irritación
    • enrojecimiento o hinchazón

Síntomas de intoxicación con organofosfatos o carbamato:

Nota: puede ocurrir una intoxicación grave solamente con la manipulación del organofosfato sin guantes o por no lavarse las manos poco después de su exposición, ya que se pueden absorber grandes cantidades a través de la piel, a menos que la persona esté protegida. Se pueden presentar rápidamente una parálisis potencialmente mortal o la muerte.

Síntomas de intoxicación con paradiclorobenceno:

Nota: las bolas de alcanfor con paradiclorobenceno no son muy tóxicas. Éstas han reemplazado los tipos de naftalina y alcanfor más tóxicos.
