    Q
    Will Suspend SC discolor wood floors?
    I have used Suspend for a very long time and never had an issue. One of my clients claims that I discolored her wood floors. Can this chemical actually discolor the wood floors?
    A

    Suspend SC is a water-based insecticide for which we do not typically hear complaints about any sort of staining or visible residue if the product has been diluted and applied properly. There are many factors that could cause finish to change on flooring. We would recommend contacting the manufacturer, Bayer, for more information about this concern. You can reach them at 800-331-2867.

    Q
    Does Suspend SC really kill bed bugs?
    A

    While Suspend SC is labeled for bedbugs and some still use it for that pest, there are some known resisitance issues with it, so it is not commonly recommended.   You may want to look over our Bed Bug Guide for more information on treating and preventing this pest.

    Q
    What is the best product to use to get rid of German roaches. I would prefer a spray.
    A
    We really recommend using more than one product to eraciate roaches.  You could our German Roach kit. The German Roach Control Kit is perfect for roach control problems in homes, apartments, and similar small treatment areas. This kit is designed specifically to treat infestations that have been Identified as German Roaches but it will treat other common roaches, as well.

    Q
    Will Suspend SC by Bayer kill grass hoppers?
    if not what will?
    A
    Yes Suspend SC will kill grasshoppers. The Suspend SC product label states that you should use 0.4 to 0.6 fl oz/1000 sq. ft  for outdoor control in your lawn (The amount of water you use it mainly up to you, but you should use at least 2 gallons per 1,000 sq ft). Indoors you should .50 - .75 ounce per gallon of water. Spray under appliances, under furniture, in cracks and crevices around baseboards, door frames and window frames and around areas where utilities (cables, pipes, wires) enter into the structure.

    Q
    I'd like to spray the yard with Suspend at the same time as the weed control. Is it safe to mix this with Trimec or Drive?
    A

    When looking to tank mix products like an insecticide and herbicide together, you want to follow the most restrictive labeling of the two and be sure that anywhere you may be looking to get insect control is not close to any desirable vegetation like bushes when its mixed with your weed control product. For lawn pests like ants, millipedes, and fleas it would be safe to mix the two so long as you keep the herbicide away from any plants it could harm around the lawn if drift were to occur. In those areas we would recommend only using the Suspend by itself.

    Q
    How long do I have wait after spraying with Suspend SC and mopping?
    A

    Suspend SC when used as directed on the product label is only applied along baseboards and in cracks and crevices inside.  It would not be applied across entire floors where you would mop.  Only a small amount would possibly be on the floor along the edges of the room after you have sprayed and you should avoid mopping these areas as it will remove the product and the residual it leaves that keeps killing insects.

    Q
    Can Suspend SC be used for flea treatments indoors as a broadcast?
    I have ordered ultracide but have been very impressed with suspend SC outside and would love to use it inside for my flea issue. I have read prior testimonials and on certain websites that suspend SC can be used as a broadcasting agent for fleas indoors.
    A

    Per the Suspend SC product label: For control of carpet beetles, fleas and ticks indoors, apply as a coarse, low pressure crack and crevice spot treatment to problem areas and infested habitats. Do not treat entire floor, carpet or floor coverings. Do not apply as a space spray. Application to furniture should be restricted to areas where prolonged contact by humans will not occur. Care should be taken to limit spot treatment to pet beds and infested floor coverings.

    The Ultracide you ordered is a fantastic option for indoor broadcast treatments as it has a knock down and residual as well as an IGR within the can. Be sure to vacuum at least every other day to stimulate egg hatch and pull up any live or dead adults and feces.

    Please see our Flea Treatment Guide for more tips and information.
