Uses
Bifenthrin is used regularly as an insecticide to target red imported fire ants. Other target
species are aphids, worms, ants, gnats, moths, beetles, grasshoppers, mites, midges,
spiders, ticks, yellow jackets, maggots, thrips, caterpillars, flies, and fleas (#EPA). It is often
used in orchards, nurseries, and homes (#CDPR). Agriculturally, it is registered for use on
greenhouse ornamentals and cotton (#EXTOXNET). It is used extensively on some crops,
including corn. Roughly 70% of all US-grown hops and raspberries are treated with
bifenthrin
