Hi there. Human exposure to deltamethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid pesticide can occur through inhalation, ingestion and dermal routes of eye and skin contact. Each of these paths can lead to acute health effects. Acute doses can cause convulsions, ataxia, dermatitis, diarrhea, tremors and vomiting. You would need to consult a neurologist for evaluation of your symptoms and if the pesticide has been absorbed. Hope this helps. Take care.
