The only product we know of that is safe for honey bees once dry is Mavrik Perimeter. In theory, if you keep Hi-Yield Bug Blaster II Bifenthrin Granules as close to the ground as possible during evening applications and immediate watering in will certainly reduce the chance of pollinators being affected. However any surface that chemical is on is one that could kill a bee or butterfly or other beneficial if it lands on or touches it. This would be the same risk with most insecticides on the market. The biggest focus is trying to avoid getting any of the product on blooms or primary landing/resting spots.
