Bifenthrin is a soil insecticide / termiticide with a proven long performance history. Soil insecticides are a tried and tested method of controlling insect pests. A soil insecticide is a chemical barrier which retards or temporarily eliminates termite access to a structure. Basically, there are two ways in which a soil insecticide can be considered effective:

• Toxicity - the termites are killed by the insecticide in the soil.
• Repellency - the termites actively avoid the area containing the insecticide.

Bifenthrin is an APVMA registered chemical soil barrier Termiticide. It is environmentally safe when applied in accordance with the product label. The chemical soil barrier involves treating the soil at the base of a building. This deters termites traveling through the soil to get to the timbers of the structure above. Trenching, drilling and rod injection are performed to ensure the chemical barrier is positioned at the right depth, total building perimeter coverage is required.
