VACOR

Pyriminil was used formerly as a rodenticide in products such as DLP 787 as a 10% house mouse tracking powder or Vacor. It is now banned in the United States and Europe for use as a rodenticide and is listed as an extremely hazardous substance by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Toxic effects of pyriminil include neurotoxicity and pancreatic beta-cell death, which, if not immediately lethal, will lead to prolonged autonomic dysfunction and permanent insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in most species, including humans.
