    Q
    How long do I have wait after spraying with Suspend SC and mopping?
    A

    Suspend SC when used as directed on the product label is only applied along baseboards and in cracks and crevices inside.  It would not be applied across entire floors where you would mop.  Only a small amount would possibly be on the floor along the edges of the room after you have sprayed and you should avoid mopping these areas as it will remove the product and the residual it leaves that keeps killing insects.

    Q
    Can I harvest fruit from a peach tree that was sprayed with Suspend SC Insecticide or does the fruit need to be discarded? If so, when can I harvest the fruit again? I observed by Pest Control Company spraying my peach tree which I can only assume he's done all summer long not realizing it was a fruit bearing tree.

    Unfortunately, any fruit that was sprayed with Suspend SC Insecticide will have to be discarded and fruit cannot be harvested for 1 year from the last application.

    Q
    Dose Suspend SC kill bed bugs
    A

    Suspend SC Insecticide will kill most strains of bed bugs however there are better products on the market now for bed bug treatments. There are resistant strains of bed bugs Suspend SC will not kill or affect. The most effective treatment for bed bugs would be to use Temprid FX along with an insecticide dust and contact/residual aerosol to treat all the necessary areas where bed bugs hide.

    Bed Bugs require repeat applications every 7-10 days until you can go 30 days without seeing any signs of bed bugs. Please review our Bed Bug Kits that contain professional grade products to completely treat all the necessary harborage sites. The Kits come with full instructions and have a great success rate when per the product label and applied diligently. Please view our How to Get Rid of Bed Bugs Guide for more information.

    A
    It is recommend to allow 24 hrs after an application of Suspend SC, however as long as the treatment area had time to dry completely it should be ok. If it was a heavy rain or within 4 hours of the applicaiton, a repeat treatmen may be necessary.

    Q
    If using Suspend SC Insecticide to treat for mosquitoes, how far should applications stay from water sources such as ditches, streams, pools, etc?
    A

    We would recommend applying Suspend SC at least 15 ft away from a pool or body of water. Please make sure to spray on a non windy day to prevent any possible over drift or spray getting to the water as well as no possibility of runoff into the those water areas.

    Please review the product label for more information.

    Q
    Can Suspend SC be used for spiders on a boat dock?
    A

    Although Suspend SC can be used to kill spiders, it cannot be used to spray around boat docks or bodies of water.

    EcoVia EC would be a great alternative to treat for spiders and other insects on boat docks or around bodies of water.

    Q
    Is Suspend SC Insecticide safe to use where food is located or put up?
    A

    Depending on where you need to treat, we recommend picking up the food and moving it out of the way before treating with Suspend SC. Once the treated cracks and crevices are all dry, and if the food is in containers or canned, you can put the food back.

    Q
    Will Suspend SC Insecticide kill Camel Crickets?
    A
    Suspend SC Insecticide is not labeled for Camel Crickets. Talstar P would be an better option if wanting a liquid insecticide to treat the both the interior and exterior of the home. Please review the product label for application rates and more information. 

    Another good option for Camel Crickets would be using Niban Granular Bait as a perimeter band around the foundation, trees, stumps, firewood, or as a scatterbait in localized areas. This can also be used indoors in approved areas on the product label.

    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.

    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
    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
    Does Suspend SC kill off an ant colony, do the ants take it back to the queen?
    Will the ants take the chemical back to the queen?
    A
    Suspend SC will kills ants via residual. Meaning that it leaves a residual behind for up to 30 days outdoors, but it does not transfer to the other ants. If you are looking for something with a transfer effect you may want to look into Termidor SC

  • Asked by Corey from Dallas,texas
    06/21/2022
    Q
    Will suspend sc kill tarantula?
    A
    Suspend SC Insecticide will not kill tarantulas. Spiders in general are harder to kill than other insects because their bodies are higher off the ground and they do not groom their legs(the part of them that actually comes into contact with the insecticide) and therefore take longer to receive a lethal dose of the insecticide. Spraying Suspend SC Insecticide will also help to get rid of the insects that spiders feed on and that will help to stop new spiders from moving in. Indoors, spray around all baseboards, door frames, window frames, under appliances, in closets and storage rooms and in areas where utilities enter into the structure. Outdoors you should spray around the bottom of the foundation, on the ground adjacent to the foundation, door frames, window frames and places where the utilities enter into the structure.
