  • Asked by Doug from Purcellville Virginia

    Q
    Will basal application of Talstat to host trees have residual effect?
    Will proactive application of Talstar on basal applications to host trees (primarily sumac) have a residual effect on feeding Spotted Lantern Flies? Is cut and squirt a method to introduce it to tree cells also effective?
    A
    Talstar P has a residual of 30 days for outdoor applications. For Spotted Lantern Fly, the Supplemental Label advises to apply to foliage and areas where pests are seen or known to harbor. Use application volumes of up to 10 gallons per 1000 square feet to get uniform coverage when treating dense and or long turf foliage. 
     
    Talstar P is not labeled for cut and squirt methods or tree injections. Safari 20SG would an alternative recommendation for basal bark applications. Please view the product label for more information.

    Q
    If I spray Talstar on asphalt or concrete slap will it work
    A
    Talstar P only mentions applications to concrete/porous surfaces when treating specifically for ants on the product label.  For ants around concrete areas it is best to treat the ground in the surrounding areas instead.

    Q
    Can you use Talstar P and Foray 48B together?

    Q
    Is it safe for a home with pets?
    Is it safe for a home with pets? Do we have to leave home when I spray? Can I spray at night before going to sleep? Is it better to spray at night or day?
    A

    Talstar P Professional Insecticide will not affect pets once dry. It does not matter what time of day you apply with the exception of outside. Just keep them out of the area while applying & they may return once the product has dried. Generally within a couple of hours. You do not want to apply during the hottest time of day outdoors as it could burn grass or ornamentals.

    Q
    How long does the product last?
    If I apply 1 oz to 1 gallon of water and apply it to my yard in April before the fire ants begin to surface. How long should I expect it to last? October? My goal is to spray in April and not have to spray before the cold weather arrives. Should I mix it a little stronger? 1 1/2 oz per gallon? Thanks for your help.
    A

    The highest rate for Talstar P Professional Insecticide is 1 oz per gallon of water and if sprayed on the grass it should be reapplied every 30 days. Fire ant treatments on the label are as follows: 
     
    For Ant and Fire Ant Mounds control is optimized by combining broadcast applications that will control foraging workers and newly mated fly-in queens with mound drenches that will control existing colonies. If the soil is not moist, then it is important to irrigate before application or use a high volume application. Apply broadcast treatments at 0.6 to 1 fluid oz. per 1,000 square feet. Use enough finished volume to penetrate thatch or sod. Treat mounds by applying 1 fl oz Talstar P Professional per mound in 1 to 2 gallons water by sprinkling the mound until it is wet and treat 3 feet out around the mound. Use the higher volume for mounds larger than 12”. Treat mounds with sufficient force to break their apex and allow the insecticide solution to flow into the ant tunnels.

    Q
    Does this kill birdmites
    A
    While Talstar P is effective against certain mites like spider and clover mites around homes, lawns, and in animal facilities, it's not a general miticide. For broader mite control indoors, Onslaught is a better choice as it's specifically labeled for mites in general. Please review our article on How To Control Bird Mites for further information.
