Chemical pesticides or insecticides with complex structures are highly abundant in the biosphere and have inevitable side effects on farmland, natural resources, and human health. Deltamethrin is the most popular and widely used pesticide that disrupts the cellular calcium channels. In the present study, isolated strains of bacteria were examined to determine the ones that were capable of degrading deltamethrin. Different species of bacteria were evaluated in terms of the capability to degrade deltamethrin. It is important to note that Streptomyces rimosus was able to degrade up to 200 mg/L deltamethrin concentration and could be grown in mineral salt medium agar containing deltamethrin to be used as a source of carbon and energy. The results demonstrated that there is a diversity of deltamethrin‐degrading bacteria in agricultural soil ecosystems. The application of these bacteria, especially S. rimosus, might be used as a bioremediation technique to decrease pesticide contamination of the ecosystem.
