Bifenthrin (Ref: FMC 54800) |
Last updated: 23/10/2024 |
(Also known as: bifenthrine; biphenthrin; biphentrin; biphenate) |
SUMMARY |
Bifenthrin is a pyrethroid insecticide used to control a range of pests. It has a low aqueous solubility and is volatile. There is a low risk of groundwater contamination based on its chemical properties and it is not persistent in soil. There are some concerns about bioaccumulation and the pesticide shows a high oral toxicity to mammals as well as being an endocrine disrupter and a neurotoxicant. It is toxic to birds, most aquatic organisms, honeybees and earthworms. |
