I noticed Talstar Pro has a higher percentage of bifenthrin.
Talstar XTRA Granular Insecticide uses 2 active ingredients (zeta Cypermethrin & Bifenthrin) for a quick knockdown and longer residual than Talstar P Liquid Insecticide. These granules last 2-3 months against listed insects and are also uniform in size and made of a clay verge material to evenly dissolve when watered in providing even coverage. Talstar P lasts for 30 days outdoors. For heavy flea populations outdoors, we would recommend using an Insect Growth Regulator like NyGuard IGR to help stop the reproduction cycle. If using Talstar XTRA Granules, this would be a separate application using a handpump/backpack sprayer. If using Talstar P Liquid, you could tank mix the IGR in the same tank. View the NyGuard IGR product label for more information. Please take a moment to review our Flea Control Guide for additional helpful tips on eradicating this pest.
