RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Oct. 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Environmental Science, a business unit of Bayer CropScience LP, has launched Suspend® PolyZone™, a new outdoor perimeter liquid spray that uses an innovative formulation technology to perform more effectively than the competition for longer periods of time in both residential and commercial settings.

"At Bayer, developing innovative pest management solutions is not only part of our history, it's a core contributor to our future," says Eric Lentz, general insect control marketing manager for Bayer. "We're always looking to provide pest management professionals (PMPs) with the most advanced, effective tools they need to be successful and grow their businesses. The transformational science behind Suspend PolyZone provides up to 90 days of residual control outdoors, allowing PMPs to increase the effectiveness of their current outdoor pest services while giving them the flexibility to extend the interval between services."

Suspend PolyZone employs a unique formulation technology that slowly releases its active ingredient enabling it to evenly disperse. Using a proprietary polymer layer developed by Bayer, this long-lasting formula adheres the active ingredient to the targeted area, as well as surrounds it like a shield against weather, irrigation, and mechanical interference. As the polymer wears away over time, the active ingredient remains secure, resisting erosion and lasting on average 30 percent longer than microcap formulations.

"With its advanced technology and long-lasting formulation, Suspend PolyZone helps PMPs keep customer call backs to a minimum, which not only increases customer satisfaction, but also enhances their profitability by saving them time and money," says Lentz. "We are thrilled to offer PMPs this new, innovative technology, which will put them at the forefront of the industry and prepare their businesses for the future."
