Suspend SC will kill most strains of bed bugs. However, we do not recommend Suspend any longer. There are resistant strains of bed bugs Suspend will not kill. We recommend using Temprid SC, because it will treat pyrethroid resistantbed bugs and using double killing power of two different active ingredients. Temprid SC also has a very broad application label. Please take a moment to look at our bed bug kits which have many products that are considered the top bed bug control products. 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.

Butterflies are insects and will be affected by an insecticide like Suspend and any other product the same way the target pests like ants and spiders would be. The best way to reduce the chance of the Suspend affecting the butterflies and beneficial insects is to spray later in the day when they are not active and are back in their homes/nests, and try to avoid blooms of flowers and plants they would be using for pollenation. Most structural insects you would be targeting are not going to be landing in the same places they would be so it helps keep you from doing as much damage.
Suspend SC can be applied to lawns and other listed areas. It is not labeled to apply in a chicken coop or where there will be grazing animals.

Yes,Suspend SC is labeled for roaches, and should do a great job helping you eliminate the infestation. We recommend that in addition to a concentrated liquid insecticide like Suspend SC you also use a high quality roach bait gel to help get the roaches that hide in places where you cannot spray (cabinets, counter tops, drawers) as well as an insect growth regulator such as Gentrol Point Source to help stop the breeding cycle of the roaches if found indoors. Suspend SC is a residual which means it will not be a contact kill for the roaches. It could kill a roach within a few hours or within a day depending on how healthy the roach is, and how long it spent on a surface that was treated with Suspend. The spray will typically last indoors 90 days and outdoors 30 days, but for an active infestation you would want to retreat every 30 days indoors until the colony is eliminated.
Suspend SC should be mixed at 0.25-1.5 fl oz per gallon of water. It is not recommended to use a quart size bottle.

Please check the product label for the pest you are treating for specific dilution rates.
Suspend SC is labeled for ants but should not be applied to fruit trees including necatrine trees. We would suggest Advance 375A Granular Bait to apply around the base of the tree. The ants will take this product back to the nest where it can be fed to the queen and eliminate the colony.
