What Is Bifenthrin 100 g/L SC Used For?

This product is mainly positioned for professional termite and residual pest-control programs.

It may also be evaluated for crawling insects, adult flying pests, turf pests, mites, ornamental pests, and selected agricultural uses where local registration supports application.

Termite Management

Bifenthrin 100 g/L SC can be used in registered subterranean termite programs.

Potential professional uses may include:

• Pre-construction soil treatment
• Post-construction termite treatment
• Building perimeters
• Foundation areas
• Service penetrations
• Approved soil barriers
• Poles, posts, or structures where registered

Termite control depends on creating and maintaining the approved treatment zone. Gaps, disturbed soil, untreated access points, or incorrect application can reduce barrier performance.

This page does not provide construction details, soil injection rates, or treatment volumes. Termite work must be carried out by trained professionals according to local regulations and the approved label.

Crawling Pests

Depending on registration, target pests may include:

• Ants
• Cockroaches
• Spiders
• Fleas
• Ticks
• Wasps
• Other approved crawling or resting pests

Applications may focus on cracks, harbourages, entry points, external walls, perimeter areas, and other approved treatment surfaces.

Flying Pests

Bifenthrin may support professional control of adult mosquitoes, flies, biting midges, or other registered flying pests.

Its role is generally based on direct spray contact or exposure to treated resting surfaces. It should not be promoted as a general larvicide for open water.

Turf and Ornamental Pests

Registered directions may include lawn armyworms, sod webworms, ants, weevils, beetles, mites, and other approved turf or ornamental pests.

The product may fit commercial lawns, parks, sports areas, landscaped sites, nurseries, and ornamental channels where local registration allows use.

How Does Bifenthrin Work?

IRAC Group 3A Mode of Action

Bifenthrin is an IRAC Group 3A synthetic pyrethroid.

It acts on voltage-gated sodium channels in the insect nervous system. Normal nerve impulses cannot shut down correctly, causing repeated stimulation.

The control process can be explained simply:

1. The pest contacts the spray or treated surface.
2. Bifenthrin affects sodium channel function.
3. Nerve signals become uncontrolled.
4. Movement and feeding decline.
5. Paralysis and death follow.

Bifenthrin is not a systemic insecticide. Its performance depends mainly on direct contact and contact with treated surfaces.

Direct Contact Activity

Fresh spray deposits can affect insects when droplets reach the pest directly.

Direct-contact performance depends on:

• Spray coverage
• Pest location
• Treatment timing
• Equipment calibration
• Surface conditions
• Approved application rate

Hidden pests may escape treatment when sprays do not reach their harbourages.

Residual Surface Activity

Bifenthrin can remain active on approved treated surfaces for a period after application.

Pests may be exposed when they cross or rest on these areas. Actual residual performance depends on:

• Surface type
• Sunlight
• Rainfall
• Cleaning
• Dust
• Temperature
• Application quality
• Local label conditions

A fixed residual period should not be promised for every structure or market.

Target Pest Directions

Pest Direction	Main Commercial Role	Registration Boundary
Subterranean Termites	Professional soil and structural treatment	Specialist registration required
Ants and Cockroaches	Residual surface pest management	Treatment-site dependent
Spiders and Wasps	Approved exterior or structural treatment	Follow local label
Mosquitoes and Flies	Adult contact and resting-surface treatment	Not a universal vector-control claim
Fleas and Ticks	Approved turf or surface programs	Market dependent
Turf Pests	Lawn and recreational-area protection	Pest dependent
Mites	Miticide direction	Crop or site dependent
Agricultural Pests	Selected crop programs	Local registration required

Subterranean Termites

Termites may enter structures through soil, cracks, joints, service lines, or untreated gaps.

Professional treatment normally begins with site inspection. The applicator must identify structural risks, soil conditions, termite activity, and possible entry routes before selecting the approved treatment method.

Ants and Cockroaches

Ants and cockroaches often use protected cracks, wall gaps, drains, utility areas, and perimeter routes.

Effective control combines approved residual treatment with sanitation, exclusion, moisture management, and removal of food sources.

Mosquitoes and Flies

Adult mosquitoes and flies may rest on shaded walls, vegetation, structural surfaces, or other protected areas.

Treatment should focus on approved resting sites without contaminating water, food-handling surfaces, or sensitive environments.

Fleas, Ticks, and Turf Pests

Fleas, ticks, armyworms, webworms, and other registered turf pests may require good surface coverage and correct treatment timing.

Thatch depth, irrigation, mowing, pest stage, and environmental conditions can affect field performance.

Professional Application Areas

Buildings and Commercial Facilities

Potential registered sites may include:

• Warehouses
• Commercial buildings
• Industrial facilities
• External walls
• Building perimeters
• Approved cracks and harbourages
• Other professional pest-control sites

Applications must follow access restrictions, ventilation requirements, surface limitations, and re-entry instructions.

Termite Protection Systems

Professional termite programs may include pre-construction or post-construction soil treatment where approved.

Continuous treatment coverage is essential. Soil movement, renovation, construction work, irrigation, and landscaping may affect the treated zone after application.

Turf and Ornamental Programs

Bifenthrin 100 g/L SC may support professional pest management in:

• Commercial turf
• Parks
• Sports areas
• Landscape sites
• Nurseries
• Ornamental plants

The crop or site, pest, application method, and rate must be included on the approved label.

Selected Agricultural Programs

Agricultural directions should remain secondary on this page.

Depending on registration, Bifenthrin may be used in cotton, sunflower, vegetables, fruit crops, or other approved markets.

It may support cotton pest-control programs where the target pest and application method are registered.

In sunflower markets, it may also fit selected sunflower pest-management programs where local use is approved.

Application Guidance

Match the application method to the registered pest, site, and treatment surface.

Important application points include:

• Confirm that the pest and treatment site are registered.
• Inspect the area before treatment.
• Identify pest harbourages and movement routes.
• Ensure complete coverage of approved surfaces.
• Maintain continuous termite treatment zones.
• Use calibrated equipment.
• Mix the SC formulation thoroughly.
• Maintain sufficient agitation during application.
• Avoid treatment methods not permitted by the label.
• Conduct a jar test before unfamiliar tank mixtures.
• Prevent spray drift and runoff.
• Follow re-entry and access restrictions.
• Rotate with effective non-Group 3A products.

SunAgro does not recommend one global dilution table. Rates, treated volumes, application methods, residual expectations, and re-entry periods vary by market and use site.

SC Formulation Features

What Does SC Mean?

SC means suspension concentrate.

Fine Bifenthrin particles are suspended in a liquid formulation. They are not completely dissolved as they would be in a soluble concentrate.

The product should be mixed and agitated according to label instructions.

Why 100 g/L SC Has a Clear Market Position

The 100 g/L SC specification provides a professional liquid format for dilution and application.

Potential commercial advantages include:

• Convenient liquid measuring
• Lower dust exposure than powder formulations
• Practical pumping and mixing
• Suitability for approved soil and surface treatments
• Clear concentration for registration evaluation
• Established professional pest-control positioning

SC should not automatically be described as odor-free, solvent-free, or safer than every EC. These claims require formulation-specific evidence.

Formulation System	Fine particles suspended in liquid	Active ingredient dissolved in solvent
Tank Behaviour	Requires suspension management	Forms an emulsion in water
Agitation	Important	Product dependent
Solvent Direction	Usually lower-solvent positioning	Solvent-based formulation
Storage Focus	Sedimentation and redispersibility	Emulsion and solvent stability
Market Fit	Professional surface, soil, turf, and termite channels	Established agricultural and general insecticide channels
Final Selection	Registration, surface, equipment, and market dependent	Registration, crop, equipment, and market dependent

SC is not automatically better than EC.

The appropriate formulation depends on:

• Local registration
• Treatment site
• Application equipment
• Surface compatibility
• Formulation stability
• Odor expectations
• Packaging requirements
• Distributor preference

Bifenthrin vs Other Group 3A Pyrethroids

Bifenthrin, Beta-Cyfluthrin, Deltamethrin, and Lambda-Cyhalothrin all belong to IRAC Group 3A.

They may have different concentrations, formulations, pest labels, and commercial positions, but they share the same main mode-of-action group.

Item	Bifenthrin 100 g/L SC	Other Group 3A Pyrethroids
IRAC Group	Group 3A	Group 3A
Main Action	Sodium channel modulation	Sodium channel modulation
Portfolio Position	Residual pest and termite programs	Product-specific contact or residual programs
Formulation	SC	SC, EC, CS, EW, or other formulations
Rotation Relationship	Same Group 3A	Same Group 3A
Selection Basis	Pest, site, residual role, and registration	Pest, crop or site, and registration

Rotating only between different Group 3A pyrethroids is not a true mode-of-action rotation.

Group 3A Resistance Management

Do not depend only on Bifenthrin or other pyrethroids for repeated pest control.

Resistance-management measures include:

• Rotate with effective products from different IRAC groups.
• Do not rotate only between pyrethroid brands.
• Do not treat Deltamethrin, Beta-Cyfluthrin, or Lambda-Cyhalothrin as different-group partners.
• Avoid unnecessary calendar treatments.
• Use the approved application rate.
• Ensure complete coverage.
• Monitor changes in pest sensitivity.
• Review local mosquito or agricultural resistance information.
• Combine chemical treatment with sanitation and exclusion.
• Use physical, structural, or biological measures where practical.

For termite and structural programs, treatment quality and barrier integrity are also critical. Increasing the rate cannot correct poor placement or untreated gaps.
