    I am under the assumption that NYC residents are unable to purchase Suspend SC, Gentrol and some other pesticides.
    WHY?
    I just asked a co-owner of a pest control company in Astoria when I purchased some Bedlam and he said that "people may mix it incorrectly". My question to him was then why are these pesticides not sold already mixed. He said "I don't know" and proceded to answer a phone call. If I can spray Bedlam and dust with DE than why am I not able to use some other chemicals in a premixed
    version?

    Lt.Dan: There are some chemicals that NYC residents cannot purchase for whatever reasons. The already mixed chemicals might be applied inappropriately and harm people, pets, kids, etc. That's what they are afraid of. I wish I was in another state so I could order some chemicals myself.

    Lt.Dan: I pm'd you.
