    Q
    How much Suspend SC to use in 2 gallon sprayer for residential bedbugs?
    A

    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.

    Q
    Can Suspend SC be mixed with a knockdown contact kill insecticide?

    ExciteR Pyrethrin Concentrate would be a fantatsic product to use and mix in with the Suspend SC to give you contact kill with your residual control. You typically use between 0.5and 1 oz per gallon of water for Exciter.

    Q
    Do you need to mix Ultracide with any other products such as Suspend to kill adults and egg larvae?
    Fleas in house
    A

    Ultracide is a ready to use aerosol can that contains an insecticide and insect growth regulator.  You do not need to also use Suspend SC, which cannot be used on carpets inside so is not recommended for inside flea control.  We do have a great guide here on "How to Get Rid of Fleas" that will give helpful advice on what should be done.

    Q
    Can Therminex be used indoors, in my crawl space?
    A

    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.

  • Asked by Wes from Moore
    01/02/2018
    Q
    Which is better to use both inside and outside my home in the winter time, Talstar or Suspend SC?
    A

    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.

    Q
    Can I spray Suspend SC directly on animal mounts like deer heads, bears, etc.?
    A

    Unfortunately, we cannot recommend using Suspend SC or any other insecticides directly on animal mounts. You could use Suspend SC as a crack and crevice spray in the room where they are present, but we would not recommend spraying them directly. 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.

  • Asked by Tim from Barrington, Ri

    Q
    Can Suspend SC be applied directly to the bark of my tree for gypsy moths?
    A

    Suspend SC  is labeled for Gypsy moth larvae, but we would recommend a product like Monterey Garden Insect Spray. Using an insect spray containing Spinosad is the most effective way to treat for this type of caterpillar. When sprayed on the foliage, this products works by poisoning the caterpillars feeding on the leaves.

    Q
    Is Suspend SC a good choice for eliminating scales in a tree? If not, what would you recommend?
    A

    Suspend SC is labeled for scale insects when they are still in the "crawler" stage. If the scale insects on your plants are past this stage or if you are not sure what stage they are in we recommend you contact your local cooperative extension office and speak to the mater gardener on staff. The master gardener can help with an accurate insect ID and also offer guidance on what will work best on the type of plant and insect you are dealing with.
