If you're searching for a long-lasting insecticide that stands up to pests in tough conditions, look no further than Suspend Polyzone. Suspend Polyzone is a liquid insecticide concentrate that controls a variety of pests such as mosquitos, spiders, centipedes, earwigs, scorpions, roaches, and more. It can be used both indoors and outdoors, including in perimeter barrier treatments, residential buildings, mosquito control treatments, and commercial kitchens and food-handling areas.

Suspend Polyzone is formulated with a microscopic polymer layer that protects the active ingredient, Deltamethrin, from weather, irrigation, and spray rinsing. This polymer layer helps it stay where it's applied, and helps it keep working for 30 to 90 days.

To apply Suspend Polyzone, begin by mixing it with water in a hand pump or backpack sprayer. Fill your sprayer half-way with water. Shake the Suspend Polyzone and add the appropriate amount of concentrate to your sprayer, 

For maintenance treatments, dilute 0.25 fluid ounces of Suspend Polyzone per gallon of water. For initial treatments or clean out treatments, use 0.75 fluid ounces per gallon of water. And for severe infestations or when a longer residual is desired, use 1.5 fluid ounces per gallon of water. 

Replace the lid on your sprayer and shake to thoroughly combine the mixture. Finish filling the sprayer with the remaining water, replace the lid and mix again. You are now ready to apply. 

Outdoors, Suspend Polyzone can be applied as a coarse low pressure perimeter spray or residual treatment to building exteriors, in lawns, and to landscaping. Spray around the foundation of the building up 3 feet and out up to 10 feet into the adjacent soil or turf, around door and window frames, under eaves and soffits, and where pipes and utilities enter the home. 

To control mosquitoes around your property, spray the foliage of landscaped plants and shrubs around the home, including the undersides of leaves. Spray the turf and other ground cover, under decks, around building foundations, and along other places where mosquitos may rest. 

Indoors, Suspend Polyzone can be used a spot treatment or crack and crevice treatment for labeled pests. Treat along baseboards, in corners, around pipes, and behind and under refrigerators, stoves, sinks, and cabinets.

It is also labeled for use in commercial kitchens and food handling facilities. The polymer layer and long residual makes it ideal for these warm, wet, and greasy environments. See the product label for detailed instructions for making general surface, spot, and crack and crevice applications in these establishments. 

After applying Suspend Polyzone, keep pets and people out of the treated area until after the area is dry. Retreatments may be made every 21 days or as necessary to maintain control. 

Be sure to read the Suspend Polyzone label for detailed instructions on where and how to apply, mixing dilutions, and how often to reapply.
