  • Asked by Cory from Irmo, Sc
    09/12/2014
    Q
    I purchased Talstar P and absolutely love it. Should I purchase another product and alternate?
    I was wondering if the insects would develop an immunity over time to the Talstar P. If so what product should I buy to use every other time, altering with Talstar P?
    A

    We appreciate your business!

    It is possible that certain strains of bugs could build up a resistance to certain products. Alternating products would be a good idea. We would recommend using Suspend SC. It works the same way as Talstar P, but it has a different active ingredient. It can be used indoors and outdoors. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    Q
    Suspend SC or Cyzmic CS
    Hi, I had this pest control company and they were using Suspend SC and Cyzmic CS around the house. Not sure about the difference between the two but I want to do it myself now. Do I need to buy and use both at the same time or will one product will get the job done? Thanks
    A
    Both Suspend SC and Cyzmic CS are great general purpose pest control products and treat many of the same types of insects. Depending on the particular type of insect(s), one might be betther than the other. We recommend hat you make sure that the pest(s) you are treating for are on the product label and mix accordingly as instructed. Typically, you are able to get the same results with either the Suspend SC or Cyzmic CS. There would not be a reason to use both. Pleae let us know if you have any further questions.

  • Asked by Kori from Kentucky

    Q
    Am I using Suspend SC correctly for bedbugs?
    I ordered Suspend SC a few weeks ago, it has not helped with our bedbugs. The infestation is not tgat bad but we live in an apt and I believe our neighbor has them. Our sons are both allergic to bug bites, what can we do different, or are we doing something wrong?
    A

    Suspend SC used to be the go to product for bed bug control. However, there have been signs that some strains of bed begs have become resistant to it since it has been used so much. Still, bed bug control has much better success if you use a variety of products. Our bed bug kits have many products that are considered the top bed bug control products and our kits also come with full instructions. They have a very high success rate with our customers and your best chance of eliminating a bed bug infestation. Also, even using the best products it will take time to eliminate the entire problem at hand. Theres no way of knowing just how many are there and it can take weeks to even a few months to get rid of every last one depending on the level of infestation and how thorough you are being with your weekly retreatments. If your neighbor has them, that should not be affecting your apartment unless they are heavy in the other unit, you have brought something from their unit into yours to allow them to spread, or unless they are doing improper treatments in their unit to cause them to spread.

    You can go over all the proper steps it takes to effectively eliminate bedbugs by browsing the how to videos and step by step instructins in our guide.

  • Asked by Chad from Columbus, Oh
    01/26/2016
    Q
    Will Suspend SC and Gentrol IGR combined eradicate ants completely?
    A

    Suspend SC is labeled for ants. Gentrol IGR is not labeled for ants. Getting rid of ants can be tough because of their opportunistic nature. Most species are able to nest indoors and outdoors in a wide variety of places and they can survive on a wide variety of food sources. To effectively get rid of ants you usually need to include proper indoor and outdoor sanitation as well as an actual pesticide treatment which includes a mixture of baiting and spraying.

    We would recommend using our Outdoor/Indoor Ant Kit. It comes with everything you will need to do a complete ant treatment.

    Please check out our Ant Guide for information on how to treat and prevent ants as well.

    Q
    Can Suspend SC be used to control ticks? If so, at what mixing ratio?
    A

    Suspend SC is labeled for treating ticks outdoors. You should mix 1.5 fluid ounces per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft.

    Q
    Does Suspend SC work for tent caterpillars? They are horrible in our area.
    A
    Yes. Suspend SC is labeled for Tent Caterpillars. Directly spray the plant foliage and nest. The larvae are usually easy to contact if spraying is done in late morning when the larvae congregate on the tent surface to warm in the sun. Mechanical control is also helpful with this pest. The egg masses are easy to spot after the leaves have dropped in the fall. Simply clip off and crush or drop into a bucket of soapy water.

    Q
    Will Suspend SC discolor wood floors?
    I have used Suspend for a very long time and never had an issue. One of my clients claims that I discolored her wood floors. Can this chemical actually discolor the wood floors?
    A

    Suspend SC is a water-based insecticide for which we do not typically hear complaints about any sort of staining or visible residue if the product has been diluted and applied properly. There are many factors that could cause finish to change on flooring. We would recommend contacting the manufacturer, Bayer, for more information about this concern. You can reach them at 800-331-2867.

    12/15/2013
    Q
    For how long is Suspend SC potent?
    The apartment where we moved in has been exterminated 1 year ago. We just found out about it and we have a 10 month old baby, who crawls all around, so we are worried if there is a chance of her getting harmed. I have washed all the walls and floors in the apartment, but there is still some odor around some cracks and the apartment also has the same odor, which I feel when I enter from the outside. I am also worried that when I washed the walls, water got in the cracks and made Suspend SC more potent.
    A
    Suspend SC does not a have a year long residual. If the treated areas were washed, it does not create the product to reactivate. Suspend SC is safe if applied and dried prior to children and pets entering the areas that you have recently treated. Please refer to the product label and MSDS for additional information.

    05/02/2013
    Q
    Are Gentrol and Suspend SC the proper treatment to kill bed bugs?
    if so what is the mixture ratio? Help!!
    A

    We do not usually recommend Suspend for bedbug treatments because of the risk of resistance. Please take a look at our bedbug kits to see the products we recommend for bedbug treatments: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/bed-bug-kits-c-39_97.html

    You will notice that there are several product formulations in each kit and this is to guard against resistance issues.

  • Asked by Tom from Greenwood,ms
    06/18/2013
    Q
    How would you apply Suspend SC outdoors for mosquitoes and no-see-um gnats?
    A
    For mosquitoes, no-see-ums and other insects, you would mix the Suspend SC at the rate of .25-1.5 ounces per gallon of water and lightly spray the areas where they would harbor such as bushes, ornamentals and trees nearby. You can spray around window and door frames of the home to help keep the population from entering, and you can spray once every 30 days for continuous control over the pests. In conjunction try to limit the amount of water sources around your home that they can use to breed in. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

  • Asked by Tally from North Salt Lake, Ut
    07/02/2013
    Q
    How would I go about preparing my rooms for indoor spraying of Suspend SC?
    Can clothes and shoes be kept in the room? So long as they aren't beig directly sprayed? (For example, can I put them in the middle of the room until the Suspend dried, or should I take them out entirely??) Also, I have a Boston Terrier, is suspend sc safe for her? If so, how long does she have to be away from the area I order not to get harmed? If she does get harmed, what symptoms can I look out for to get her Vetrenatian care as soon as possible?
    A
    Suspend SC is safe for humans and animals to be around after the treated area has dried. This normally takes approx. 1-2 hours. As long as your belongings are not directly sprayed Suspend will pose no harm. Please be sure to follow the product label application instructions.
