Hi,
Does anyone know how exactly ethyl Acetate kill insects? is it a poison? suffocating? or else...
I ask because most of the insects are stunned quickly by it but some insects, if taken out from the killing jar, somehow revived and looks healthy again. So I guess the ethyl doesn't do any permanent damage if not applied too long?
