This dataset contains data of permethrin residues on adult mosquitoes and adult butterflies following their exposure to ultra-low volume (ULV) sprays containing permethrin. The dataset also contains toxicity information for permethrin; first for adult mosquitoes and adult butterflies following their exposure to the ULV sprays, and for adult mosquitoes exposed during toxicity tests to determine median lethal dose levels (LD50).
