I'm sorry, but I am unsure exactly what product it is you are inquiring about. If you are asking about using Termidor SC in crawl spaces, then the answer is that you can if you are treating a live infestation of termites, or you are doing a trenching treatment for the prevention of termites. You cannot use Termidor in a crawl space or otherwise indoors for a topical spray for ants. You can use Suspend SC for treatment in a crawl space or crack and crevice/spot treatment indoors for surface pests.
Both the Suspend SC and the Talstar P contain synthetic pyrethroids for active ingredients and will provide very similar results. The only advantage to using Talstar P over Suspend SC is that it is known to be super gentle on most plants (do not use on edible vegetation) and is virtually odorless, while Suspend SC does have a slight odor. Both products can be used indoors and outdoors and both products are safe to use in houses with children and pets. Keep in mind that you will not need to treat in winter months if you are in a cold area (temperatures consistently below 40 degrees) unless you currently have a specific pest infestation.
Unfortunately, we cannot recommend using Suspend SC or any other insecticides directly on animal mounts.

If you would like to tell us more about what pest you are treating, then we may be able to give you more specific treatment advice.

Having said that we always recommend that you test any product you choose on a small inconspicuous area to be sure staining will not occur. Sometimes old paint can be an issue when using any product.

Suspend SC could harm amphibians if they were sprayed directly with the product. You should not apply Suspend SC in a way that would contaminate water containing aquatic life. This is a non-selective insecticide, so it will kill flying insects that are sprayed directly or which contact the treated areas, including flies which would be desirable to frogs and other amphibians. If you are reducing the flying insect population, then these predators may go elsewhere to find food. If you would like to use an insecticide that is safer around aquatic areas, then Essentria IC3 is a great choice.
