  • Asked by Rick from Howard, Colorado
    09/05/2016
    Q
    Will Suspend SC kill bark beetles that are killing my pine & cedar trees here in Colorado?
    A

    Suspend SC will not kill Bark Beetles. Bark Beetles are very hard to treat for as they get into the vein of the tree. Our best recommendation is to cut down and chip the tree. Then you can apply Permethrin SFR to uninfested trees to protect them.

  • Asked by Ron from Modesto, Ca
    07/29/2016
    Q
    Can there be resistance issues after 4 years of using Suspend SC for roach control?
    Has a resistance developed? Please recommend a different insecticide. Problem appears to be coming from the neighbors because it is always at the perimeter of the property, none in the house, but it may be approaching.
    A

    We recommend rotating between insecticides at least once a year to prevent resistance issues. Even though Suspend SC is an effective product, after 4 years of continuous use, it is possible that resistance has been developed. There is a variety of products you can rotate to, Temprid SC, Suspend Polyzone, Talstar P, and Phantom Termiticide/Insecticide, just to name a few.

  • Asked by Kori from Kentucky
    11/08/2015
    Q
    Am I using Suspend SC correctly for bedbugs?
    I ordered Suspend SC a few weeks ago, it has not helped with our bedbugs. The infestation is not tgat bad but we live in an apt and I believe our neighbor has them. Our sons are both allergic to bug bites, what can we do different, or are we doing something wrong?
    A

    Suspend SC used to be the go to product for bed bug control. However, there have been signs that some strains of bed begs have become resistant to it since it has been used so much. Still, bed bug control has much better success if you use a variety of products. Our bed bug kits have many products that are considered the top bed bug control products and our kits also come with full instructions. They have a very high success rate with our customers and your best chance of eliminating a bed bug infestation. Also, even using the best products it will take time to eliminate the entire problem at hand. Theres no way of knowing just how many are there and it can take weeks to even a few months to get rid of every last one depending on the level of infestation and how thorough you are being with your weekly retreatments. If your neighbor has them, that should not be affecting your apartment unless they are heavy in the other unit, you have brought something from their unit into yours to allow them to spread, or unless they are doing improper treatments in their unit to cause them to spread.

    You can go over all the proper steps it takes to effectively eliminate bedbugs by browsing the how to videos and step by step instructins in our guide.

  • Asked by Mario from Conroe. Tx
    09/07/2015
    Q
    Is Suspend SC effective to eliminate German roaches?
    A

    Suspend SC is labeled to eradicate roaches including German roaches that come into contact with the treated areas. This should not be the only product used for treatment. We recommend that you incorporate an insect growth regulator (IGR) and a professional roach bait gel (in areas that are not treated with Suspend SC). Please take a few moments to review our treatment article, How to Get Rid of Roaches Article, for more helpful information.

  • Asked by Ed from Ma
    07/28/2015
    Q
    Can I apply Suspend SC or Suspend Polyzone with a backpack powered mistblower? Why or Why not?
    A

    We contacted Solo and they said that any herbicide or insecticide (including Suspend SC and Suspend Polyzone) can be used in the Solo Mist Blower 451. So any product that would be diluted with water in the tank will work fine.

    Q
    Is Suspend SC too thick to use with a hose-end sprayer?
    I cannot get Suspend SC to work with my hose end sprayer.
    A

    Yes, Suspend SC may be used in hose-end sprayers. Be sure to check the instructions for the hose-end sprayer that you are using as some hose-end sprayers require water to be added to the resevoir with the insecticide, while other hose-end sprayers do not. Make sure to shake the Suspend SC well prior to use.

  • Asked by Cory from Irmo, Sc
    09/12/2014
    Q
    I purchased Talstar P and absolutely love it. Should I purchase another product and alternate?
    I was wondering if the insects would develop an immunity over time to the Talstar P. If so what product should I buy to use every other time, altering with Talstar P?
    A

    We appreciate your business!

    It is possible that certain strains of bugs could build up a resistance to certain products. Alternating products would be a good idea. We would recommend using Suspend SC. It works the same way as Talstar P, but it has a different active ingredient. It can be used indoors and outdoors. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    Q
    Suspend SC or Cyzmic CS
    Hi, I had this pest control company and they were using Suspend SC and Cyzmic CS around the house. Not sure about the difference between the two but I want to do it myself now. Do I need to buy and use both at the same time or will one product will get the job done? Thanks
    A
    Both Suspend SC and Cyzmic CS are great general purpose pest control products and treat many of the same types of insects. Depending on the particular type of insect(s), one might be betther than the other. We recommend hat you make sure that the pest(s) you are treating for are on the product label and mix accordingly as instructed. Typically, you are able to get the same results with either the Suspend SC or Cyzmic CS. There would not be a reason to use both. Pleae let us know if you have any further questions.

    Q
    Will Suspend SC kill bed bugs?
    A
    Suspend SC will kill most strains of bed bugs. However, we do not recommend Suspend any longer. There are resistant strains of bed bugs Suspend will not kill. This is why we recommend one of our Bed Bug Kits.

  • Asked by Robert from Chesapeake, Va
    06/25/2014
    Q
    Can Suspend SC be used to control ticks? If so, at what mixing ratio?

    Suspend SC is labeled for treating ticks outdoors. You should mix 1.5 fluid ounces per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft.
