Great product. Had a guy coming quarterly to spray out house for several years. He quit coming and wouldn't answer phone calls. So I thought I would try it myself. Got a pint of Talstar locally. It works great. I've used it for roach's, spiders,wasp's. Tried it on a couple of fire ant mounds this week, their gone! Bought 3/4 gallon online from DoYourOwn. Saved $$. Highly recommend! No regrets at all. Will do again.

Very bad. It's fake
By Toral on 08/13/2022
It has no effects at all. Not even for a day. I bought a gallon after reading reviewed. Have been using it per the direction but no effects at all. I see ants at the same location. They don't even die on contact. Completely fake product.

Talstar Insecticide
By Fred on 08/16/2022
This stuff is GREAT. The use of only 4 ounces in a 4 gallon tank sprayer suggests this is very potent insecticide. And it works extremely well. I use it to spot spray ant hills in the lawn, and when used according to directions ants disappear never to be seen again in the Sam spot. I've used this product before, and have never been disappointed with the results I've received, and will definitely continue using it.

Works as advertised
By Dwain on 08/19/2022
The product seems to have taken care of my Armyworm issue. I chose Talstar because the Univ of Kentucky did a study of the effect of pesticides on earthworms. I wanted to solve my issue without a lot of collateral damage. Bifenthrin (Talstar by name) was reported at 0-25% toxicity.
Finally found something that works!

AMAZING! We live in WET LANDS and it WORKS!
By Seena on 08/25/2022
Wow ~ that's what I have for this product! We live in wet lands and of course our state bird is the mosquito! LOL! Followed the directions, suited up, put gloves on and did the perimeter of our house ~ the eaves, soffit system, around the windows/doors and the foundation. What I really loved as a full time gardener (it's my job) is that I got to choose where to apply it and made sure to keep it out of all of the beds where I needed pollinator's as well as predatory insects! I applied on July 3 of 2022, it's the middle of August now and we can still be out in the backyard! For us . . . that's wonderful. I highly recommend it! I used a backpack sprayer and got the whole yard done in about and hour, hour and a half. For the money you can't beat it. One application has lasted this long and I still have enough left to do one more application. If you pay professional sprayers to come to your house, first ~ you really don't have a choice of where they'll spray and the monthly cost is way to expensive. A big thumbs up . . . the end.
Great product

WOW
By Stephen on 09/02/2022
Works better than described. I sprayed my entire yard both from and back, to include fire ant hills, the afternoon after I received it in the mail. By that night, there were 0 flies to be found anywhere and the next day the ant hills were dead and there have been no new ant hills found. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product.

This product is highly toxic to bees
By Me on 09/04/2022
I must first say that the DoMyOwn website provided excellent product details, including all the PDF attachments, which helped me make an informed choice. The product was shipped quickly and arrived in 3 days (surprising), in a cardboard box, with plastic air pillows filling the void. There were 2 large neon orange labels on the outside of the box stating "Fragile" and "This end up", which Fedex ignored, since it was lying on it's side when delivered. However, everything was intact inside, no leakage at all. The product description on DoMyOwn website says "NOTE: Due to the size of this bottle, the product is not filled to the top and will appear at the halfway mark." That is true, if you include the entire height of the container up to the caps. I have never seen a bottle with a built-in "measuring chamber", and it didn't work well for me. It probably works better if you are a professional and filling a bigger sprayer, but for just 1-oz, I found that some of the fluid from the bottle ran into the measuring chamber before all of the 1-oz portion dripped out during pouring into a sprayer. With more use, as the volume in the bottle decreases, that shouldn't be an issue. However, if you only want to use 1/2 oz, there is no indicator mark on the measuring chamber for that small of an amount. The liquid is white, with a milky consistency, and I was pleased to see that it does not foam up when water is added. Instructions say "Talstar P does not provide an instant knockdown of pests, rather, pests pick up the residual active ingredient by contact." That was certainly true when spraying ants, they kept walking over the wet cement, but I trust that it will work as stated. I had been spraying Home Defense insecticide, and my experience is that it's great for killing insects when spraying directly on them, but has little or no residual effect after it dries, because I have seen insects walk across the surfaces I recently sprayed with no effect. I only used Talstar outside, and I didn't notice any product odor, and it didn't affect my breathing. There is one statement in the instructions that was of particular concern to me, "This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment or residues on blooming crops or weeds. Do not apply this product or allow to drift to blooming crops if bees are foraging the treatment area". I have several flowering plants which the bees love, so I was careful not to go near them.

Pest be gone
By Monty on 09/09/2022
After using flea fogs from time to time for years I decided to some research on commercial strength insecticide and was surprised to find out that you don't need to be a business owner to purchase it.One day I researched “commercial strength insecticide “ online several things came up including the company Do My Own after going to the company's website and reading some of the reviews I decided to purchase Talstar P it seems to be what most pest control companies use.Anyway I ordered it and used it as directed I couldn't be happier with the product I'll apply it again in 12/22.I don't know how long this has been available to the general public but I wish I knew then.Buy you won't be disappointed !
Talstar Review

Highly recommended
By Uddu on 09/16/2022
Very effective and Highly recommended. I used the product in my lawn for chinch bugs, Results were immediately visible next day. I also treated around home for spiders and flies. All of these pests and many unknown ones are gone with one application. Mixed 1oz per gallon in sprayer. This was what I was looking for after having bought ineffective products from home improvement stores.
