Bistrifluron is an insecticide of the benzoylurea class.[1] It is used to control chewing insects such as aphids, whiteflies, caterpillars, and termites.[2][3][4] It is not highly toxic to mammals, but bioaccumulation may be a concern.[2] It has a low level of toxicity to birds and moderate to high toxicity to most aquatic animals, honeybees, and earthworms.[2]
