Also, is it safe to eat eggs or chickens that have consumed Bifen IT treated foliage?
Bifen I/T is used in poultry housing and facilities as long as the chickens are removed from the area while you treat them. You should still be able to use it in their grazing areas with no issue since they are not actually feeding on the grass/potential seeds placed out but on the insects in that area after everything has dried. If you have any concerns with the Bifen I/T usage, another option that is safe to use in grazing areas is Essentria All Purpose. You still have to remove the chickens during the application but once dry is safe to return just like the Bifen IT. Neither product should have any effect on their eggs at all as long as you are following usage instructions.
