  • Asked by Pren from Kansas City
    06/13/2016
    Q
    Can I mix Talstar P with dawn soap for boxelder bugs?
    The dawn soap will breakdown the hard shell of the bugs body and then the Talstar P will kill them
    A

    Talstar P will do a great job for boxelder bugs! We do not recommend that you use soap with the Talstar P or any other insecticides. The Talstar P may be used to spray directly on the plant foliage and it can be used inside and outside of the home. Please take a moment to look at our "How to Get Rid of Boxelder Bugs" article for more detailed information about this type of pest.

    Q
    Can I spray Talstar P through a Big John commercial mist machine?
    A

    We are not familiar with that misting system. Talstar P is a great product to use in a misting sprayer. Riptide and Pyrahna are still top choices for misting systems.

    Q

    EcoVia EC can safely be applied in and around homes, businesses, near and over water such as boat docks and pool areas without harming aquatic life, as well as numerous other areas. Please follow label instructions for your target pest and application.

  • Asked by Scott from Raleigh, Nc
    09/23/2016
    Q
    Will Talstar P control white flies in my bermudagrass?
    I use talstar in the mixture of 1 ounce per gallon, however this does not control the white flies living in my bermuda grass. I spray no more than once every 4 weeks depending on rainfall.
    A

    According to the Talstar P label to treat Whiteflies you may apply 1oz / gallon of water and repeat as necessary to maintain control. In addition to a foliar spray (Talstar P), using a systemic such as Adonis 2F to control whiteflies prooves to be effective.

  • Asked by Abigail from Arizona
    01/10/2017
    Q
    Is Talstar P the best spray to use along with a gel bait for roaches?
    A

    While Talstar P is labeled for roaches, it is not generally recommended as there can be resistancy issues within a roach population with a product like this. We would recommend using a product like Temprid SC instead. Temprid SC has two active ingredients in it to combat a roach infestations, and doesn't have the resistancy issues that a product with only one active ingredient might have.  You may want to look over our Roach Control Guide for more information on treating and preventing roaches.

  • Asked by Robert from West Palm Beach, Florida
    01/26/2017
    Q
    I bought, Archer IGR, Nygard IGR and Talstar P. Can I mix these all together?
    A

    Depending on what you are treating for, you may definitely use the Talstar P and your choice of IGR with it. It is not necessary for you to mix two IGR's with the Talstar P.  Either NyGuard or Archer IGR and Talstar can be mixed into the same gallon of water and sprayed for control of Fleas, Stored Product Pests, listed Roaches (German, Asian, and Brown-banded), Crickets, Litter Beetles, and Flying Insects.

  • Asked by Rogger from Fresno, Ca
    03/13/2017
    Q
    I am looking for a better and more economical version of Ortho Home Defense, perhaps a concentrate that I mix. What do you have?
    A

    The best general pest control can depend on what region you are located in. One of the most popular general pest control products is Talstar P. Talstar has a long residual, so it keeps on killing pests for up to three months after you've applied it. It is also odorless, dries clear, leaves no stains, is non-irritating to the skin, and won't break down easily with rainfall.

    04/08/2017
    Q
    Can I use Talstar or Capture safely in the soil around squash?
    Is it safe
    A

    Talstar P is not labeled for use around edible plants, so we do not recommend using it around squash or other vegetables. Since we do not sell Capture, we cannot comment on the use of that product. We do sell many other insecticides that can be used around edible plants, which you can browse on our site here.
