Can you spray Talstar P on the couch? It appears that our dog brought ticks into the house and we are finding them in one room around a couch.

I realize now that I need to spray an IGR (just ordered Archer) and have read that it is okay to spray the IGR on the couch. If I mix the Archer IGR with the Talstar P, can that still be sprayed on the couch, or just an IGR mixture?

Answer:

Talstar P CANNOT be applied to anything that you will come into prolonged skin contact with, so you cannot apply it to furniture.  It should be applied to cracks and crevices and perimeter of the rooms only.  For treating sensitive areas like your furniture, you should use Steri-Fab which is labeled for ticks and fleas as well as many other pests and can be applied to furniture, mattresses, pet beds, and all other sensitive areas. Below is a great article on treating indoors and the products that we would recommend for treatment inside the home for fleas and/or ticks. http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/fleas-and-ticks-t-10.html http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/outdoorindoor-flea-kit-p-1349.html http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/tick-control-kit-p-2924.html
