Glenn,
Check the Surflan label and see if it controls hen bit. If it does,
then you will not need another chemical. Surflan should provide control
for at least 8 months and sometimes a year.
(I just checked the label and it does control hen bit.) So don't worry
about another chemical. Use the great labor saver "Surflan". Are you
