Bifenthrin is a synthetic pyrethroid, a class of man-made pesticides comparable to the natural pesticide pyrethrum which is made out of chrysanthemum flowers. Members of the pest control business often refer to pyrethroids as the insecticide that is “safe as chrysanthemums”, although bifenthrin has been found to be moderately toxic to birds and highly toxic to fish. However, bifenthrin is not harmful to your pets when it is dry. Bifenthrin is also safe to use in your yard or garden, because it cannot be absorbed by plant foliage.

Mode of Action

Like many other insecticides, bifenthrin manages insects by paralyzing the central nervous system upon contact and ingestion.

Effective in controlling over 75 different pests!
