Envu Introduces New Innovations Expanding Pest Management Portfolio
New Barricor® Essential Mosquito Control and new Suspend® Contact & Residual Aerosol can help knock down hard-to-manage pests
Cary, NC., April 14, 2025 — Envu is expanding its pest management portfolio to include two new solutions to help pest management professionals (PMPs) tackle the evolving day-to-day challenges that pests create. PMPs who trust the Suspend portfolio have a new aerosol option for indoor and outdoor control: Suspend Contact & Residual Aerosol is the industry’s only deltamethrin aerosol with the fast action of pyrethrin for added control. The second innovation is for PMPs with customers demanding eco-friendly solutions: Barricor Essential Mosquito Control, a FIFRA 25(b) essential oil-based insecticide that delivers a powerful 24-hour* mortality rate for Aedes mosquitoes — all while being safe for bees and butterflies.
“As the only fully dedicated environmental sciences company focused on pest management solutions, innovating to solve our customers’ challenges is the core of what we are focused on at Envu,” said Bernard Jacqmin, head of global innovation. “Through partnerships and acquisitions, Envu entomologists and R&D teams are hyper-focused on solutions that respond to the shifts in nature, enabling our customers to take full control of any pest situation.”
Suspend Contact & Residual Aerosol
Fast-acting control, long-lasting residual protection for indoor and outdoor use.
Suspend Contact & Residual Aerosol provides residual control for up to 18 months** against German cockroaches and Argentine ants. Its unique two products in one formulation ensures the aerosol goes to work on hard-to-reach pests like ants, ticks, spiders and cockroaches.
With the extended 90 days of protection from Suspend PolyZone®, Suspend SC’s versatility, and Suspend Contact & Residual Aerosol’s rapid response, PMPs can take a comprehensive approach to pest control. Whether tackling routine maintenance applications or addressing sudden infestations, the Suspend portfolio offers the flexibility and reliability needed to stay ahead of evolving pest challenges.
“Suspend Contact & Residual Aerosol has the power of two products in one and is a nice expansion of the trusted Suspend portfolio,” said Gokhan Vergon, head of pest management and public health at Envu. “Its formulation kills pests in less than two minutes, and it has long-lasting control. On the flip side, customers are hearing demands for nonsynthetic control solutions — and we are committed to providing products that meet both performance and environmental compatibility expectations for them too. Barricor Essential Mosquito Control is a direct response to the needs of pest management professionals who require effective, reliable and eco-friendly solutions.”
Barricor Essential Mosquito Control
Eco-friendly option that kills mosquitoes but is safe for bees and butterflies in outdoor areas.
Barricor Essential Mosquito Control is a new botanical-based insecticide designed to balance the needs of society and nature. Formulated and tested to meet evolving industry needs, this FIFRA 25(b) essential oil-based insecticide delivers a powerful 24-hour* mortality rate for Aedes mosquitoes — all while being safe for bees and butterflies. Barricor Essential Mosquito Control reduces active ingredient loading, maintaining stability without frequent remixing and is noncorrosive to equipment. With no signal word or PPE required***, the solution also enhances applicator safety.
Barricor Essential Mosquito Control provides flexibility for use in a wide range of environments, including residential yards, parks, restaurant patios and other shared outdoor spaces. Approved for use around outdoor food-handling areas when applied as directed, it allows PMPs to offer effective mosquito control without compromising safety.
