    Q
    Is it pet safe?
    Do I only need to spray outside for Roaches?
    A

    Yes, Talstar P Professional Insecticide is safe for pets once dry. Just keep them out of areas while treating & they may return once the product has dried (generally in a couple hours). You can spray just the outside but keep in mind this will not detour them. If you are seeing them inside, you will want to spray indoors as well.

    Q
    Dogs
    What if my dog eats Roaches
    A

    A roach sprayed with Talstar P Professional Insecticide should not pose much of a risk to pets. Keep in mind that you use a small amount of product, dilute that in a gallon of water, and then distribute that over a large area. The amount of product that is on the roaches is very tiny. A dog would generally need to eat their weight in bugs to be affected. However, if your dogs shows any signs of sickness, we would advise taking them to the vet

  • Asked by Jesus from San Antonio Texas
    08/30/2023
    Q
    Does it kill all Beatles carpet longhorn etc
    A

    While Talstar P is labeled for beetles in general, Talstar P is not labeled to be broadcast sprayed over carpeted areas for carpet beetle control. Talstar P can only be used as a crack and crevice application indoors. For indoor carpet beetle control, you may want to consider a product such as Nyguard Plus. This product contains an insecticide to kill the roaming adults and an insect growth regulator to stop the harder-to-kill immature beetles from reaching a reproductive state which in turn will break the cycle of infestation. As an added bonus this product also contains a deodorizer for carpet applications.

    09/07/2023
    Q
    Does this product affect pets or outside plants?
    A

    Talstar is safe for use around pets when used according to the label.  You should always keep children and pets away from the area while you are treating, and then once the treatment is dry it is perfectly safe to allow pets to re-enter the area. Talstar is also labeled for use on outdoor plants.

    09/10/2023
    Q
    Can you use in a sprayer that has already been used with a different product that left behind a smell?
    I noticed it said this product is odorless. Does that mean it should be used with a brand new sprayer that has never been used to spray a different product that had an odor?
    A

    Talstar P can be used in the same sprayer you use for other pesticides as long as the sprayer is rinsed after each application. We recommend to rinse the sprayer out at least three times. For good maintenance and to help neutralize anything left in the sprayer, we recommend using a tank cleaner such as Neutralize Spray Tank Cleaner Dry.

    Q
    Can I apply this to my artificial grass?
    A

    Artificial turf can be washed on a low-power washing setting with just water to remove pollen, dirt, and other materials/debris that attract insects. If treating a listed pest, Talstar P can be applied to artificial turfgrass. Be sure to follow the application instructions on the label for use and allow to completely dry before returning to the treated areas.

    Can I apply insecticide with a water hose application qt. Container

    Talstar P Professional Insecticide is not labeled to be used in a hose-end sprayer. Professional grade products in general are not labeled for use in a hose-end sprayer due to the lack of accuracy in dispensing the correct usage rate.

    10/31/2023
    Q
    If I spray this on a foundation and it goes below freezing that night, will the treatment become ineffective?
    I see this is not freeze-thaw stable from other questions but I cannot find anything about that on the label. The freezing point is blank and lists nothing on if this is supplied and then Temps go below freezing does that make the treatment ineffective?
    A

    For best results, Talstar P should be applied in cool weather (65 - 85F) or in early morning or late evening hours. You should not apply Talstar P or other insecticides when temperatures are near or below freezing.
