Cyzmic CS Micro-encapsulated Insecticide and Suspend Polyzone are comparable in terms of how long they can last on outside surfaces, up to 90 days and are labeled for the same pests. The differences is in the active ingredient and the formulation. Cyzmic is micro-encapsulated which means each drop of active is encased in a small capsule that insects contact and pick on and they rupture to get a direct hit of the active. Polyzone contains a polymer that helps it stick to surfaces better for the longer residual. Either would be good to use, but CS products tend to work better on harder to kill insects such as scorpions and spiders since they actually pick it up and get the hit of active.

Spray the areas outside the home where the nest was found and surrounding surfaces, and if any have made their way in the home during this process you can use the Cyzmic around baseboards and crevices and window and door frames.
