    Q
    We have springtails and silverfish and have used suspend SC. Is there anything stronger?
    We used to use diazinon granules and they worked. Can we purchase it anywhere?
    A
    Unfortunately, Diazinon was banned by the EPA years ago and is no lonnger available or manufactured.  Suspend SC is one of our best sellers and is considered one of the best there is.  Springtails are very tricky to treat though.  Springtails breed from moisture areas around the house, and unless you find the source of the problem it does not matter how much you spray, they will still reproduce and continue to be a problem.  Please read our How To Get Rid of Springtails article from our website for some ideas and suggestions.

    Q
    On a "true" log home what is best in the treatment of cluster flies...Suspend SC or Cypermethrin?
    The home is in northern NH. I think I should spray all the logs real soon as cooler nights are around the corner. I try to keep up with caulking around the doors and windows as well as between the logs. Any other suggestions?
    A
    Suspend SC is considered to be better for outdoors than cypermethrin because it will last much longer than cypermethrin does outdoors.  Cypermethrin does have a stronger initial knockdown, but will break down much quicker in UV light and heat than Suspend.  Typically Cypermethrin will only give about 30 days of protection whereas Suspend SC can give 60 to 90 days before needing to be re-applied.

    Q
    Does Suspend kill butterflies?
    A

    Butterflies are insects and will be affected by an insecticide like Suspend and any other product the same way the target pests like ants and spiders would be. The best way to reduce the chance of the Suspend affecting the butterflies and beneficial insects is to spray later in the day when they are not active and are back in their homes/nests, and try to avoid blooms of flowers and plants they would be using for pollenation. Most structural insects you would be targeting are not going to be landing in the same places they would be so it helps keep you from doing as much damage.

    Q
    How do you clean a sprayer after making an application of Suspend SC?
    such as Neem or Miracle grow?
    A

    It is best to triple rinse any equipment used to make an application of an insecticide such as Suspend SC? prior to using the sprayer for any other chemical application.  Simply use warm water to rinse out the tank and spray through the wand.  Repeat this 3 times prior to adding new chemical to the sprayer.  You could also use a tank cleaner such as Monterey Spray Tank Cleaner.

    Q
    Has anyone used Suspend SC to control stinkbugs?
    These pests are a big problem in Pennsylvania and the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia. Also, spreading to Maryland and the D.C. area.
    A

    Suspend SC is a very popular product for stink bugs and widely used by our customers.  The key to stink bug control is to treat in the fall when the stink bugs normally look for entry into a home.  Even more important is to make sure there are no cracks around windows or under doors.  You should seal all cracks and holes with caulk or other suitable material to prevent entry from stink bugs and other pests during the fall and winter.
