    Q
    Approximately how long does it take Suspend Polyzone kill a wasp?
    A

    The kill time for Suspend Polyzone varies. It is a residual product so it will not kill if sprayed directly. Suspend will kill wasps and other insects over a period of several hours after they contact treated areas. It will leave a residual that will last up to 90 days, both indoors and outdoors.

    Q
    Can I use Suspend Polyzone in my flower bed to kill aphids and mealybugs?
    If not, is there something you carry that will do this?
    A

    Suspend Polyzone is labeled for controlling aphids and other pests on plants and in flower gardens, but it does not specifically list mealybugs on the label so we cannot say for certain it will control them. However the Suspend SC which is just the non-polymer version of Suspend Polyzone does list both aphids, mealybugs and hundreds of other similar pests on the label.

    Q
    I want to put barrier around my home for spiders, ants and giant flying cockroaches.
    What is best spray solution?
    A
    We would recommend using Suspend Polyzone. It is a very good general insecticide that can be broadcast across your lawn and sprayed indoors. Suspend Polyzone features a proprietary polymer layer that protects the active ingredient from weather, irrigation and mechanical abrasion. This controlled release formulation, which resists erosion, ensures your treatment will continue to control targeted pests for up to 90 days outdoors. This does need to be applied with a pump sprayer. Indoors, you will spray around the baseboards and cracks and crevices. Outdoors, you will spray around the perimeter of your home, in the lawn, etc. Make sure you spray the product in areas where the spiders are so that they can come in contact with it.

    Q
    We are replacing our current pest control company,
    I currently have service with Terminix and pay almost $400 per year. I would like to do my own pest control. My service with termini is labeled "exterior general pest control". Can you help me know what I should use?
    A
    For general pest control, we would recommend a product called Suspend Polyzone. It is a very good general insecticide that will last for up to 90 days outdoors. It features a proprietary polymer layer that protects the active ingredient from weather, irrigation and mechanical abrasion. You will use 0.25 to 0.75 fl. oz. per gallon of water. This can be used around the perimeter of the home outdoors. It can also be used indoors as a crack and crevice treatment.

    Q
    Is Suspend Polyzone a good choice for spider or bee problems?
    I need the best priced (preferably under 40 bucks) concentrate pesticide that I can spray around the perimeter of the house and should I happen to encounter a nasty spider or bee, spray them and they immediately go down. I'm more concerned about having spider knock down for the nasty types of spiders.
    A
    Suspend Polyzone is a very good product that will last about 90 days outdoors. It is not a contact kill so it will take time in order to kill the pests. This can be used indoors as well, around the baseboards, cracks and crevices. Outdoors, it can be used on brushes, trees, flowers, broadcast across your lawn, etc. It cannot be sprayed on any type of edibles. If you are looking for a faster knockdown, we would recommend mixing this product with ExciteR Insecticide.

    Q
    What is the difference between Suspend Polyzone and Demand CS?
    A

    The biggest difference between Demand CS and Suspend Polyzone is the residual they have outdoors. Suspend Polyzone was designed with special time release polymer coating to hold up in heat, cold, and irrigation for up to 90 days. Demand CS will last approx 30 days.

    Q
    What is the heat tolerance for Suspend Polyzone?
    Here in Texas it can get hot and breaks down quicker.
    A

    Suspend Polyzone is formulated to last longer than other pesticides in heat, sunlight, and other extreme weather. There is not a specific temperature requirement or limit for applying it outdoors, as long as temperatures are over freezing. We recommend spraying in the morning or evening when temperatures are cooler for your own comfort and since pollinators are less active during those times. You can retreat at 30, 60, or 90 days intervals depending on pest pressure and rainfall.

    Q
    I am looking to get rid of cutter bees.
    These cutter bees have ruined my St Joseph Roses and just about every other rose bush in my back yard. How can I get rid of them? All my plants are ornaments also with the exception of two new Ponderosa Lemon Trees.
    A
    Unfortunately, insecticides really are not effective on these bees since they only cut the leaves and do not chew on them. This article has a few non-chemical suggestions to help reduce damage to desirable plants.
