Sprayed the interior of our home with Talstar at .02% dilution (.33 fl. oz) per gallon one month ago. Just started seeing spiders 2 weeks ago almost every night. I've read that Talstar doesn't always work well on spiders because their legs are tall and their bodies are raised high off the chemical. Is this true? Should I use something else? Or maybe a higher concentration of Talstar would work better? Help! Thank you!
Talstar P Professional Insecticide should be mixed at .5 an oz per gallon for spiders. But yes, products such as Talstar have a more difficult time taking care of spiders. Something such as Demon Max or Suspend SC would work better on spiders. Their formulation helps stick to surfaces better & their legs as well. Will also take care of the food sources that are making them harbor them. Also make sure to take down any spider webs as they come up to make them want to relocate.
