Pyrethroid compounds formulated with the insect repellant DEBT were responsible for numerous deaths in cats and dogs in the past decade. Pyrethroids interfere with sodium channels in nerves causing them to fire repetitively. Clinical signs of pyrethroid poisoning in small animals include ataxia, excitement, and muscle fasciculations and tremors. There is no antidote for pyrethrin poisoning, but symptomatic treatment, such as decontamination procedures and sedation, usually results in full recovery.

The compounds iridomyrmecin (1) and iridodial (2) serve as defensive compounds in ants of the genus Iridomyrmex. Nepetalactone (29), from Nepeta cataria, Lamiaceae, is insecticidal. Eisner (1964) demonstrated that this compound is repellent to 17 out of 24 insect species studied. Nepetalactone also has been reported to have hallucinogenic properties in humans. Nepetalactone and a similar compound, boschni-alactone (40) from Boschniakia rossica (Orobanchaceae), have attractive activity toward cats (Herout, 1970) (Fig. 20.9). These compounds occur free, in contrast to most iridoid compounds.

Dogs, cats, and horses are plagued by eas and ticks. One to two drops of citronella or lemongrass oils added to the shampoo will repel these pests. Alternatively, 4-5 drops of cedarwood oil and pine oil is added to a bowl of warm water, and a bristle hairbrush is soaked with this solution to brush the pet down with it. Eggs and parasites gathered in the brush are rinsed out. This is repeated several times. This solution can be used similarly for livestock after adding citronella and lemongrass oils to this mixture.
