    Q
    Scion versus Suspend Polyzone
    I heard about Scion at an annual cch class on mosquitos for our state. I love the results of Suspend Polyzone but the price is crazy. What are your thoughts of rotating these two every 6-7 weeks for my customers in Indianapolis? Last few years I have been using Suspend Polyzone and rotating with Talstar Pro. Example July 4th and Labor day Suspend Polyzone all the other apps would be Talstar pro.
    A

    Both Scion Insecticide and Suspend Polyzone provide excellent control of mosquitoes and other listed insects. We do suggest alternating products to avoid insect resistance every few years

  • Asked by Demetrius from Jacksonville Nc

    Q
    Which is better for spiders, Scion or Onslaught FastCap? And can you mix the 2 together?
    A

    Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion Insecticide would give you a faster knockdown than Scion as it has Exponent brand synergist.  You not mix 2 insecticides together, it does not make either work better and can actually have a negative effect in making an area highly repellent where insects will avoid the area and neither can do their job of killing.
