How Nuvan ProStrips Work Nuvan ProStrips contain dichlorvos, also known as DDVP. This active ingredient is a powerful enzyme inhibitor that targets an insect's central nervous system. It's infused into a plastic strip and forms a vapor once the ingredient comes into contact with the air. The DDVP releases slowly over time, providing a constant level of treatment in the target area. Although DDVP is highly toxic to insect pests, it poses little risk to people and pets such as cats and dogs.
