    Q
    Will Suspend SC control bermuda mites?
    The active ingredient for DeltaGard Granules, deltamethrin, says that it will control bermuda mites. The label for Suspend doesn't say this but it has the same active ingredient. Can I do a broadcast treatment of my turf with Suspend SC and control bermuda mites?
    A

    While its possible the Suspend or other similar active ingredient products could potentially control bermudagrass mites, the only product specifically listed for their control that we are aware of is the Triple Crown Insecticide

    Q
    How do I measure the liquid in the Suspend SC container to get the correct amount? I can't seem to get the small spout measuring side to fill up.
    A

    We are sorry to hear that you are having trouble measuring Suspend SC into the measuring side. The product can be measured by squeezing the bottle and allowing it to go up the straw on the side of the bottle to fill the measuring side. Once measured to the amount you want (1.5-2oz) you fill it into your gallon sprayer and spray. Please make sure to agitate the mixture first before applying.

    Q
    Does Suspend SC work on stink bugs?
    A

    Suspend SC is a very popular product for stink bugs and widely used by our customers.  The key to stink bug control is to treat in the fall when the stink bugs normally look for entry into a home.  Even more important is to make sure there are no cracks around windows or under doors.  You should seal all cracks and holes with caulk or other suitable material to prevent entry from stink bugs and other pests during the fall and winter.

    Q
    If Suspend SC Insecticide was sprayed an inch and half off of almost every baseboard in my home, was this proper use of the product per the label?
    My landlord did the treatment and wanting to know if this was correct use per the product label instructions as it states, "spot treatment" and "crack and crevice" but also broadly uses the term.
    A

    If using a fan or cone spray nozzle pattern instead of a pin stream when applying Suspend SC Insecticide, it’s going to provide a wider spray along baseboards, under cabinets, sinks, around windows, etc. This would be fine and in accordance to the product label. If there is any overspray of concern, you can remove this with warm soap/water or normal cleaning practices.

    Q
    Can Suspend SC, Talstar P and Surfactant be tank mixed in one spray tank and applied all together?
    A

    Suspend SC and Talstar P should not be tank mixed together as they have the same modes of action and would hinder results. You would wnat to use one or the other but not both together nor should these be cross treated and applied in the same areas.

    A non ionic surfactant can be used with Talstar P to treat for mites per the product label. The Supspend SC product label does not advise or state a Surfactant is required.

    Q
    Can Suspend SC Insecticide be used in a handheld sprayer around the exterior of a house for perimeter control of insects if there is a vegetable garden nearby?
    We use this at our house in a spray mist application (with a Stihl blower) to keep mosquitoes away and in a 2-gal handheld sprayer around our entire house (doors, windows, etc) to keep cobwebs away and other bugs from trying to enter. My parents have a large vegetable garden, so we've never tried to mist this around their house. Would it still be OK to use in the handheld sprayer around their barriers to control cobwebs? Thank you!
    A
    Suspend SC Insecticide can be used to treat around the exterior foundation of homes, around windows, doors, under the eaves of roofs/overhangs as well as on bushes, trees, shrubs and lawns. Suspend SC Insecticide cannot be used on edibles therefore applications should be done on non windy days and depending how close the vegetable garden is to the home, using a plastic barrier to protect the vegetable garden can be used to prevent any overspray.
