I can not find any information about active ingredients they were using in the 80's. If you call them tell them who you are and where you are from and why you want to know they will probably get back to you with an answer. I have done that with companies before and they have been very helpful. There will also probably be a petrol base in there as well. JTV Joel Voron Colonial Williamsburg Foundation Conservation Dept.

Do not click links, open attachments or take action unless you know the contents are safe] I recently found out about the use of Raid on botanical collections in our museum from the mid-80s. Does anyone or has anyone worked on collection materials treated with Raid? Do you have any information you can share with conservation community as this is a health and safety concern?
