    Q
    Will Suspend Polyzone kill powder post beetles?
    I have a log home and I'm looking for a product that will protect my Log's from wood boring insects
    A

    Suspend Polyzone is labeled to apply where the false powderpost beetles have been found/seen. It is not for structural protection or long term control in the wood. We recommend Boracare instead because it will penetrate the wood completely and will remain active for the life of the wood.

    Q
    Is Suspend Polyzone used against scorpions?
    A

    Suspend Polyzone can be used for scorpions.  Per the product label: Treat areas where scorpions may hide. Treat known or suspected harborages on and around exterior walls. Apply spot treatments into cracks, crevices, weep holes or other access points into hollow block walls or masonry veneer. Spray around and beneath stones and along rocky areas. Scorpions will often harbor beneath the bark on trees, so inspect these areas and treat as required. When possible, remove piles of debris and building materials near the exterior wall that can harbor the pests. Apply a perimeter treatment to the exterior walls and adjacent soil. You may treat around piles of firewood, but do not treat firewood with this product

    Q
    Suspend Polyzone a repellent?
    How can it be a repellent when it kills, elaborate more on this? A true repellent repellent, This product kills.

    Suspend Polyzone is considered a repellent because insects can detect it. This does not mean they are truly repelled from the area they can just choose to avoid it as they know something is there. They must contact the treated area to be effected by the product though

  • Asked by Oscar from Ft. Worth, Tx

    Q
    Is Suspend Polyzone a good choice for spider or bee problems?
    I need the best priced (preferably under 40 bucks) concentrate pesticide that I can spray around the perimeter of the house and should I happen to encounter a nasty spider or bee, spray them and they immediately go down. I'm more concerned about having spider knock down for the nasty types of spiders.
    A
    Suspend Polyzone is a very good product that will last about 90 days outdoors. It is not a contact kill so it will take time in order to kill the pests. This can be used indoors as well, around the baseboards, cracks and crevices. Outdoors, it can be used on brushes, trees, flowers, broadcast across your lawn, etc. It cannot be sprayed on any type of edibles. If you are looking for a faster knockdown, we would recommend mixing this product with ExciteR Insecticide.

  • Asked by Lee from Tennessee

    Q
    Can Suspend Polyzone be mixed with Demon WP for outdoor use?
    I want to mix Suspend Polyzone with Demon WP for outdoor insect control. Can I mix these two insecticides?
    A

    You cannot mix Demon WP with Suspend Polyzone.  Both of these products are synthetic pyrethroids, so there would be nothing to gain by mixing these products together. Making a pesticide too strong can actually backfire. Areas that are treated with this overly concentrated spray will be repellent and insects will simply avoid the treated areas prolonging the infestation.

    Q
    What is an all around good outdoor product to treat the exterior of 6 adjoining rental units?
    I was looking at Suspend SC.
    A

    Suspend SC is an excellent product and should give you great results.  It controls a wide variety of crawling, flying, turf, and ornamental pests found in and around households, including, but not limited to, ants, bed bugs, beetles, boxelder bugs, chinch bugs, fleas, mosquitos, pantry pests, roaches, and spiders. 

    If you are treating outdoors, you may want to consider using Suspend Polyzone.  It features a proprietary polymer layer that protects the active ingredient from weather, irrigation and mechanical abrasion. This controlled release formulation, which resists erosion, ensures your treatment will continue to control targeted pests for up to 90 days outdoors. It also stays right where you put it, so if you want to increase the effectiveness of your treatments, put the science of Suspend Polyzone to work for you.

    Q
    Is Suspend Polyzone pet friendly/odor free?
    I have been using RAID to kill roaches that have infiltrated our hallway since a new tenant moved in next door to me. I spray every morning and evening - and then because I have COPD, my lungs hurt and I get asthma attacks.
    A

    Suspend Polyzone is safe in homes that have children and pets if used as directed on the product label. They should not be in the treated area during application and when the surfaces are wet. They can re-enter when completely dried. The scent has a sweet characteristic, mild odor that eventually dissipates. We recommend that you do not spray with any liquids if your lungs hurt and you have asthma attacks and COPD. We recommend that you apply a professional roach bait gel such as the Maxforce bait stations and consult with your doctor for treatments that are safe for you. We do offer non-poisonous glue boards also.

    08/31/2019
    Q
    Can bugs detect Suspend Polyzone or Demand SC?
    A

    Both Demand CS and Suspend Polyzone are considered repellents so insects are able to detect that either product has been applied to an area.  This does not mean that they are repelled from the area as they do have to contact the product to be effected by it.

  • Asked by Mike from Waterford, Michigan
    09/16/2013
    Q
    Will Suspend Polyzone work for Carpenter ants?
    A
    Suspend Polyzone will carpenter ants that come in contact with the treated area. We recommend using a product that will be taken back the colony like our Carpenter Ant Kit.
    Both baits work together to eliminate the carpenter ant colony. Certain carpenter ants may take better to one bait than the other, giving you a greater chance of bait acceptance and effectiveness. In addition, the Maxforce gel is more versatile in where you can place it. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

    What is the best product to kill or get rid of millipedes in Southwest Florida?
    A

    We would recommend using Suspend Polyzone. This product features a proprietary polymer layer that protects the active ingredient from weather, irrigation and mechanical abrasion which is perfect for Florida weather.

Once the product has dried completely, it is safe for animals and children to return to the area. It is important to keep in mind that millipedes breed in moist, dark areas, so look for ways you can make the environment less conducive for these insects. See our General Pest Prevention Guide for information on how to use good sanitation and exclusion to eliminate these an other pests from your home.

    Q
    Is Suspend Polyzone toxic to birds?
    Particularly if insects are ingested.

    Q
    If I cover my ac unit, can I spray Suspend Polyzone around it?
    I would like to prevent entry of American cockroaches through AC unit, but I assume we would not want to spray the unit directly. Is it safe to cover it with a plastic drop cloth or tarp and spraying around the unit?
    A

    You could potentially spray Suspend Polyzone around an AC unit as long as you are not spraying directly into any vents or electrical equipment. Be sure that you have installed the unit correctly and sealed up the edge properly. It would be unlikely for roaches to enter through equipment like that if it is properly maintained and in working order.
