Suspend SC is labeled for bees. It can be broadcast across the lawn for ground bees. Be sure to spray at night so that they do not attack.
Suspend SC does have toxicity to aquatic life, so you want to be sure that runoff or drift does not enter the fish pond. We would recommend spraying when rainfall is not expected within at least 24 hours. You could also consider a product near the pond that does not have aquatic toxicity such as EcoVia EC.
Suspend SC can safely be applied to Myoporum when used as directed. Dilute at .5-1oz per gallon.
Suspend SC is labeled to treat for Chinch bugs, however, you cannot apply it to all areas needed to get rid of Chinch Bugs. Please check out our Chinch Bug Guide. Here you will find the most effective products and tips to eradicate Chinch Bugs.
You should mix .25-1.5 fl oz (depending on the targeted insect-they are listed on the label) of Suspend SC per one gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft and treat the areas surrounding the driveway but not directly on the driveway. You will apply the product to areas listed on the product label only. Suspend SC should not be used to treat termites. Please see our Termite Treatment Guide for this pest.
Suspend SC is only labeled to be applied every 21-30 days outdoors. To treat for fleas outdoors, you will mix 1.5 fluid ounces per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft. We strongly recommend that you also add an insect growth regulator (IGR) to the mix to impede their reproduction. Pivot 10 would be a great choice. Please take a look at our Outdoor Flea Control Guide for more tips on treating and preventing fleas.
Depending on the mix rate you are needing for Suspend SC, the amount of finished solution coverage will vary.

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 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.
