Would using Bifen LP as a perimeter treatment around my home provide adequate protection? Would I be better off using a liquid insecticide? The perimeter of my home is all non-porous landscaping with the exception of the driveway and a walkway to the front door. I also have kids and pets. Would one product be safer?
Both the liquid and granules would be fine to use in areas where kids and pets may enter after the applications have completely dried, typically after 4-6 hours. For perimeter barrier applications we typically suggest using a liquid because it is more versatile. You can spray on the ground, a band around the bottom of the house, around doors and windows and other areas where pests may try to enter the structure and then apply Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules further out in the lawn.
