Bifenthrin（Cat No.:R046436）is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide widely used in agriculture and pest control. It functions by disrupting the nervous system of insects, primarily through prolonged activation of sodium channels, leading to paralysis and death. Bifenthrin is highly effective against a broad spectrum of pests, including ants, termites, and beetles, yet exhibits low toxicity to humans and mammals when used properly. It is moderately persistent in soil due to its low water solubility and strong binding to organic matter. Bifenthrin is commonly applied in crop protection, turf maintenance, and structural pest management.
