The invention relates to a synergy insecticidal composition containing dinotefuran and pyrethrin pesticide and purpose thereof. The synergy insecticidal composition contains main effective components of dinotefuran and pyrethrin pesticides. The pyrethrin is one selected from efficient cypermethrin, cyhalothrin, cyhalothrin, bifenthrin, alphacypermethrin, deltamethrin, fenvalerate, cypermethrin, fenpropathrin, silafluofen, efficient cyhalothrin and ethofenprox. The dinotefuran and pyrethrin are in a mass ratio of 0.1-80:0.1-50. The insecticidal composition can generate efficient synergism, overcome and delay resistance of insects and expand control spectrum, and has fast insecticidal speed and reduced drug usage cost. The insecticidal composition of the invention can be used for controlling homoptera insects of aphid and whitefly, etc. and has an effect obvious better than that of a single dose.
