    Q
    Better then Talstar P?
    What's the difference between these 2 products, is this one better?
    A
    Suspend Polyzone and Talstar SC have two different active ingredients.  Suspend Polyzone lasts about 90 days outdoors and indoors, while Talstar SC lasts about 30 days outdoors and 90 days indoors. Suspend Polyzone features a proprietary polymer layer that protects the active ingredient from weather, irrigation and mechanical abrasion. It is the only product that is currently on the market that does this. Both products can be broadcast across your lawn as well.

    Q
    Will Suspend Polyzone harm the wild lizards outside my home?
    A
    As long as Suspend Polyzone is not sprayed directly on the lizards the product should not cause them harm. You will see a reduction of the lizards however because by spraying Suspend Polyzone you will be eliminating their food source near your home and they will naturally go in search of better hunting grounds.

    Q
    Suspend Polyzone Runoff toxicity to fish
    My yard slopes into a water retention area that eventually makes it's way to the Cheasapeake bay. It is dry most of the year. Do you you think that runoff from Suspend and/or bilfen granules could realistically cause a problem? If so, are there any similar products you would recommend that would not be toxic to fish? Thank you.
    A
    If  Suspend Polyzone runs into an aquatic environment it could harm fish. We would reccomend to apply Eco Via in that area. It will not harm fish.

    Q
    Can Archer IGR be mixed with Suspend Polyzone?
    A

    Yes, Archer IGR can be diluted in the same tank with Suspend Polyzone. Be sure to follow the product label for Archer and the product label for Suspend Polyzone so that the dilution rates and application sites are compatible, and that these products can be applied for the pest you are treating. There are very few restrictions on diluting insecticides and insect growth regulators.

    Q
    Can you mix Demand CS with Suspend Polyzone?
    I am trying to keep lady bugs and stink bugs from overwintering in our house. I have already purchased both and didn't know whether I would be able to mix them for a one, two punch.
    A

    There is no valid reason to mix Suspend Polyzone and Demand CS together, it would not make either product work better or produce better results, though it could make treated areas repellent lessening the effectiveness of the treatment. We recommend that you treat in August-November when treating overwinterizing insects. Please take a few moments to review our treatment article, How to Get Rid of Stinkbugs.

    Longest lasting

    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.
