To be honest the most common ingredient in indoor pesticides is a  pyrethroid compound such as the Transfluthrin in acana carpet and fabric killer .
If you are spraying commercially be aware that Anyone using a professional pesticide must either have a recognised specified certificate (previously known as a 'Certificate of Competence').  Sellers of agricultural pesticides for professional or industrial use must have a certificate of competence from the British Agrochemical Standards Inspection Scheme Ltd. No licence is required to sell or store pesticides for other uses
If you want to use the chemspec chemicals you have to complete their certificate of competence. If you want something stronger/different then you can always do a complete course with killgerm.
