  • Asked by John from Warren, Mi
    04/04/2018
    Q
    Can 30 ml of Talstar P kill broad mites?
    I know it's not listed for them but will it provide a quick knock down.
    A

    Talstar P (Talstar One) is mixed at 1 fl oz per gallon of water. It can be applied safely to ornamentals (nothing edible). While it might kill broad mites as well it is not labeled for them so we cannot recommend it for this use.

  • Asked by Rick from Rogers, Arkansas

    Q
    Can my cat chew on grass after being treated with Talstar P by lawn service?
    A

    Please keep your pets out of the Talstar P treated area until dried. After the product is diluted there is only a small enough amount of active ingredient to harm small insects. If your cat were to nibble on a small area no harm should be posed. You may also want to consider having the service not treat where your cat may be nibbling.

  • Asked by Uconnland
    05/08/2011
    Q
    If I were to start my own exterminating company, what products would I need for indoors?
    I know Termidor for outside, but what for indoor treatment?
    A
    The selection of the proper product would depend on several different factors. What type of insects are your main concern? Are you doing clean outs or just preventative treatments? What state are you in? Do you need an immediate knockdown or residual control or both? Most professionals would not limit themselves to just one or two products because their clients will have very different needs. We will say that Talstar P is one of the most popular products on the market for indoor use because it dries clear, does not have an odor and has a very broad label and works well for a general insecticide.

  • Asked by Jerry from Rockhill, Sc
    05/05/2019
    Q
    Will Talstar P kill powderpost beetles?
    It says it will kill beetles?
    A

    We do not recommend using Talstar P for powderpost beetles. The label does allow for this application in voids and galleries of damaged wood, but this would be a difficult applciation. Our most popular treatment for this pest is using Boracare on raw wood that is infested. If you need to treat finished wood such as wooden floors, then you would either need to strip the wood to treat it, or spot treat the individual holes using Jecta, which is a ready-to-use formulation of Boracare. We have more tips in our Treatment Guide for this pest here.

    Q
    need to get rid of crickets in my home.
    tthey appear on occassion
    A
    Talstar P is labeled for crickets and can be used inside and outside the home. Indoors as a crack and crevice treatment it provides a 90 day residual. When Talstar P is applied outdoors as a perimeter treatment or as a broadcast treatment, it will leave a 30 day residual. Talstar P is labeled for over 75 types of insects and is a great product for general pest control.

  • Asked by Tom
    09/04/2010
    Q
    What product should I use for prevention instead of what an exterminator uses?
    I do not want to have to have a service contract with an exterminator, but I'd also rather not wait to see bugs in my house. They would spray stuff outside the house, and then inside the house. While I am sure they handed me something that said it, I am also sure its exterminator grade, and I can not buy it. Is there something you would recommend that I can spray the same way, as an amateur, or do you disagree with the preventative spraying?
    A
    We do carry and sell all of the same products professional pest control operators use. Unless you live in a restricted state, you can purchase and use the same products. (restricted states are listed on each individual product page on our site.) Talstar P would a great all around insecticide for you to use indoors and outdoors for preventative pest control. Talstar P kills over 75 different insect pests and has a long residual, so it keeps on killing pests for over three months after you have sprayed it. Plus, Talstar P is odorless, dries clear, leaves no stains, is non-irritating to the skin, and will not break down easily with rainfall. We also recommend that you use IPM or Integrated Pest Management to make the environment around your home unsuitable for insects. You can read more about IPM by reading our article : Integrated Pest Management IPM

    Q
    Do you spray the whole yard with Talstar P?
    A

    Talstar P is labeled for use in a wide array of areas including the lawn, bushes, trees, and shrubs if the pests you are treating for are congregating in those areas. You can refer to the product label for mix rates and target areas for the specific pest you are having trouble with.

    Q
    Do you have an alternative to Talstar P that can be shipped to CT?
    Looking for an alternative to Talstar P as I live in CT and it can not be shipped here. Interested in controlling the same wide varities of insects/pests that Talstar P does. Thanks.
    A

    Unfortunately the state of Connecticut has limited most of the products out there on the market these days that can be shipped into the state without having a license to purchase them. Pest Xpert Home Barrier would be one option of a comparable insecticide spray to Talstar that could be used in CT.  An all natural option that works similarly is Essentria IC3 and can cover a wide range of pests and usage areas like the Talstar as well.

    Q
    Can Talstar P be used in a Turfco Rideon Sprayer/Spreader?
    Can I use TalStar P with the Turfco Rideon Sprayer? If so, what is the rate? It has an 18G tank and treats approximately 1.46A wit each fill.

    Yes, you can use Talstar P in a pull behind tank sprayer.  Talstar P (Talstar One) is mixed at 1 ounce per gallon of water.  For example, if you are mixing up 18 gallons of solution at a time you would mix in 18 ounces of Talstar P (Talstar One) into the 18 gallons of water.

    Q
    My car is infested with stink bugs. How should I use Talstar P on a vehicle?
    A
    Talstar P is not really specifically labeled for treatment in cars.  You cannot apply the product to any seats or anywhere that you come into contact with.  You could only apply it to cracks and crevices and under seats.  We feel that an aerosol can would be easier to apply to a car and just as effective.  We would recommend D-Force HPX Aerosol and apply it to the same areas.
