  • Asked by Hector from San Antonio Tx
    03/12/2014
    Q
    What is a good general indoor and yard granual pest control?
    Currently I have purchased and use Demon WP for outdoor application around the house but I also want to find a good general indoor pest control and a general outdoor granule for use as backyard grass application so my kids don't get bit up. We don't have any pest issues now but I just canceled my yearly pest control to do it my self as it was getting pricy to pay every 3 months. Can you suggest anything. Thank you
    A
    Our most popular general use product is called Talstar. It is widely used by pest control companies because it is labeled for almost every insect you could have a problem with and you can use it outside the home as well as inside, it is odorless and very safe for use around children and pets. It is a liquid concentrate that you mix with water in a one gallon hand pump sprayer. It will last for 60 to 90 days outside in between treatments. It is also labeled for lawn and ornamental use, and can be used on trees, plants, bushes and shrubs for all sorts of ornamental pests including Japanese beetles, mosquitoes, and other leaf eating pests. Talstar is also available in a granule formula called Talstar PL if you prefer to use granules.

    Q
    What is the best chemical to spray outdoors n kill mosquitos?
    I am alrdy using Termidor around the perimeter of the house, so i am looking for another spray that can eliminate or minimize mosquitoes.
    A
    Talstar P is the premier product for controlling mosquitos. In addition to the treatment around the foundation of the home as mentioned above, spray Talstar P on the underside of leaves on the lower-hanging branches of trees around the backyard or area where mosquitoes are a problem.  You can also spray the underside of leaves on shrubs and ornamentals.

  • Asked by Sherri from Toms River, Nj
    04/23/2014
    Q
    Would Talstar Granules be effective for carpet beetles?
    We purchased Talstar Granules for a camelback cricket issue in our crawlspace & it has worked wonders! We believe we also have carpet beetles originating from the same area. Would the Talstar Granules also work on the carpet beetles?
    A
    Unfortunately, Talstar Granules are not labeled for carpet beetles. It would be best to use the liquid spray instecticide such as Talstar P in the crawlspace or inside along the baseboards, window frames, door frames, and cracks and crevices.

    Talstar can be used in a backpack sprayer or a mist blower like the Solo 451 but it cannot be used in any type of fogging equipment. Please take a look at our Fogging Concentrates to see if any of these might be more suited to your application needs.

    05/14/2014
    Q
    Can Talstar P be applied at a high pressure or will it break down the molecular structure of the chemical?
    A
    Talstar P should not be used in a high pressure sprayer. Most recommended insecticide sprayers use a range of 30-150 PSI. Higher range PSI will tend to break down the insecticide.

  • Asked by Bert from Niceville, Fl

    Q
    Looking for product to control sod-web worms and other lawn pests including chinch bugs in FL.
    Bermuda, St. Augustine and Zoysia. May have cinch bugs as well. Tired of using products that don't work.
    A

    The most popular product for sod webworms is Talstar. Talstar is very effective on most insects including chinch bugs and it is gentle to plants. Time applications to control young larvae, if possible. Spot treatments may be applied when infestations are first detected and the damaged area is small. The treatment will be most effective if applied in the early evening when larvae begin feeding. Please check with your local cooperative extension office to see if a second generation is possible in one season in your region.

    Q
    Can Talstar and Cyper WP be combined in solution for simultaneous application?
    My pest control operator states that is what he is doing
    A

    There is no real reason to mix both Talstar and Cyper. They kill pretty much the same insects. One or the other would most likely do the job.
