Will pyrethrum kill hookworms in grass?

Pyrethrum is primarily used as an insecticide and is effective against a variety of pests, but it is not designed to kill hookworms, which are parasitic worms. Hookworms typically reside in the soil and are not affected by pyrethrum, as it targets insects rather than parasitic helminths.
