Beware of Bifenthrin! 🪲 Here's what you should know:
Bifenthrin is a common insecticide used professionally and privately to reduce the insect population in the area in which it is spread. Bifenthrin can be found in many different forms, including granules, sprays, and aerosols. This insecticide is often seen in fire ant baits and can be purchased at most hardware or lawn and garden stores. Dogs are very sensitive to bifenthrin and can develop vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, weakness or difficulty walking, tremors, and seizures. Always be mindful of what is being sprayed in or around your yard and keep all lawn and garden supplies secured from your pet. If your pet is demonstrating signs consistent with a bifenthrin exposure or you suspect an exposure has occurred, contact Pet Poison Helpline and seek immediate veterinary care.
