    Perfect for around the foundation

    By Keith on 05/13/2015

    This is the same stuff the people with an O use. It works as expected. A little is all that is needed. I bought two cans for my own use and it may last me 10 years for my 2 story 4 bedroom.

    Talstar P

    By Charles on 04/11/2010

    I have used this product for several years and it works better than any other I have tried. Its potency lasts longer than most and reapplication isn't necessary every month. The only bugs I find in the house are dead ones. It worked very well on my daughter-in-laws farm around the outside this spring when the Japanese Beetles and Box Elder bugs came out. I've recommended it to several people and they are impressed with it as well.

    Talstar

    By Charles on 05/12/2010

    I have been using Talstar going on 5 years. Talstar has been the only product that I put on my lawn that actually killed the chinch bugs and cleared my lawn of ant mounds. Sprayed against the outside walls controlling the amount of bugs getting in my house. This is the first time getting such a good offer on Talstar that I could not pass up buying the 3/4 gallon although I still have enough for about two spraying in my other gallon. Look forward to receiving another great sale like this one. Chuck

    Talstar P (One)

    By Janet on 05/20/2010

    Verified Purchase

    We have used this product for the last three years. Not only on our home but also on our children's homes. When I first used it we had an ant and spider problem which was resolved. My daughter lives in FL where bugs are everywhere. They also had their indoor bug problem resolved. The product lasts and does not have to be reapplied more often then recommended. It is easy to use. You dilute it as directed and put in your sprayer. It is quick and easy to apply to the outside of your house.

    Great product

    By Carlos on 05/27/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I've had the product for about two months. It has worked as expected. No bug problems around the house or in the yard. Works great on ants. They didn't just move the mound, they are gone for good. Would recommend to spend money on this product. It was recommended to me by a vet because I had a tick problem with my dogs. No more ticks.

    Talstar P

    By M on 06/21/2010

    I was using a local company to spray my property for ants. I was being charged $80 per treatment three times per year. Talstar P works as well as what the professionals were using for a fraction of the cost. I highly recommend this product. The measuring portion of the bottle makes mixing the right proportions very easy.

    Get those bugs!

    By Kim on 07/07/2010

    For those of you that like bugs, skip this review. For the rest, this is the easiest and most effective formula we have used to take care of bugs for the summer! We may need a second application in the fall but we do not get ants, spiders or anything else after we use this.

    This did the job!

    By Valerie on 10/18/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I had a professional exterminator spray for camel crickets and carpenter ants in my basement. He wanted to charge me again to reapply when it didn't work. I purchased this product instead, applied it and the next day I had dead crickets and ants everywhere in my basement. And weeks later its still doing its job. I highly recommend this product and will continue to use this website if needed in the future.

    Do It Yourself is definitely the way to go!!

    By Frank on 04/08/2011

    Verified Purchase

    My wife worked in Walmart years ago and became allergic to pesticides. Home pest control had to use unscented spray and apparently wasn't very strong. We had bugs indoors all season long. Tried using your spray and haven't seen a bug in the house in years. Take that back, had a couple one year but they were dead. Only spray every 6 - 8 weeks, wife can't smell it, and we don't have bugs in the house anymore. And whole lot cheaper than pest control companies!!!  I've recommended Talstar to a few people already and they were going to try it also.

    Talstar P is Worth every Penny

    By Mary on 05/14/2014

    Verified Purchase

    I have not found a product that works as well as Talstar P. Keeps centipedes and scorpions away as well as most usual pests. Works for over 6 months. I only spray twice a year.

    Got Mosquitos? Not any more! Talstar P is the answer.

    By Marty on 07/02/2014

    As advertised, rid yourself of mosquitos. We have a cabin in northern Wisconsin and the mosquitos were so bad this year that I actually saw a wood tick on one! Sprayed around the cabin, fire pit, garden, vegetation and like magic, no more mosquitos. It has rained several times since the application 3 weeks ago and still, no more mosquitos. So if you're tired of feeding mosquitos get yourself some Talstar P and be done with it once and for all.

    TALLLSTAR

    By Warren on 07/03/2014

    I've used this product in the pint size without any issues. This time I purchased the quart size. I've wasted alot. Something about the measuring and pouring system. I fill the top to the desired amount but when i go to pouring it the liquid just kept pouring. The product itself is awesome!!!

    Mosquito bye bye

    By Bob on 07/29/2014

    Excellent product for the control of mosquitos. I use a mist blower and Talstar P is easy to apply to my 1/2 acre. Even with all the rain we've had in the last 3 weeks, I haven't seen any mosquitos.

    Roaches laugh at this stuff

    By Doug on 08/18/2015

    I have mixed this product up at 3x specified ratio and sprayed it on a roaches head, put it in a jar and finally had to smash it 5 days later. I don't know if the product I received was just a bad batch but I will switch it up with something else.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    We are sorry to hear that you did not receive the results you expected.

    Talstar sucks

    By Don on 08/01/2017

    I have applied this chemical to three different locations. One had a spider problem, the other had a roach problem, and the last had a flea problem. I have not seen one sign of a dead bug and I have applied at twice the strength after not seeing results applying as suggested. I wasted 30 bucks I suggest you don't do the same. You would expect to see a dead bug here or there after an application but I have not. Not impressed!

    Our son-in-law gave us the link to your product. I live in the country and have many needs for your product. I have used it in a variety of areas and we are well pleased with the results, especially for mosquitoes and all sorts of ants. I have given the link to several friends that want to try it. Thanks......

    By Ron on 08/31/2010

    Used on my lawn and garage. I had hundreds of box elders on my garage and I sprayed it down with Talstar and the next day I walked out there wasnt a single boxelder- I would say effective. I also used it in my lawn for the sod worms. I haven't seen any more tiny white moths flying around my feet when I walk through the grass and no more new brown spots, so here's hoping!

    By Jar on 10/06/2010

    Great Product

    By Brenda on 03/23/2011

    This product works great! With the beginning of spring we had spiders (of all kinds) just running everywhere, and the ants were building as fast as I could pour the traditional ant killer from the bag. I sprayed the house all the way to the eves, the yard, trees as far as the sprayer would spray, my fence from top to bottom, and the inside of the house. Needless to say we saw many many DEAD spiders. For anyone that has any type of insect problems, this is your ticket to freedom!

    Talstar Cleaned 'em Out!

    By Brandt on 04/30/2012

    Prior to treating the perimeter of my house with Talstar P, I used a gas powered pressure washer to clean the exterior of my house, and all the concrete and the concrete expansion joints. While doing this, I found the daytime hiding spots of all the crawly things; hundreds of various bugs (black widows, roaches, scorpions and other bugs) came out of every crack I blasted with the pressure washer. While blasting out a large expansion joint in the driveway, dozens of crickets emerged. After allowing the house perimeter to dry for 24 hours, I proceeded to treat with Talstar P, mixed at 2 oz. per gallon of water. The house perimeter was treated 2 feet up from the base, and two feet horizontally, with extra attention given to all cracks. All concrete expansion joints (including the driveway) were thoroughly dosed. The interior of the garage was also thoroughly sprayed. Prior to application, my driveway, garage, and yard were a nightmare. Flipping on the garage light at night would reveal dozens of roaches scurrying for cover, numerous black widows in the corners, and the odd scorpion. The driveway would be alive with roaches and crickets. There were so many black widows around the outside of my house (especially the back porch) that my kids weren't allowed in the yard at night. After applying the Talstar P spray, I used a broadcast spreader and applied Talstar granules to the front and back lawns and landscaping. Prior to applying the granules, my lawns were heavily infested with some species of small black spider, as well as a variety of bugs. It has now been three days since application. Last night, I went on a "bug hunt" to see the results of my efforts. Flipped on the garage lights. No scurrying! In fact, there wasn't a (live) bug in sight. No black widows, nothing. The garage was completely dead. Outside, the results were the same. No crickets or roaches on the driveway. No bugs or spiders in the landscaping. After spending the first two post-treatment days cleaning up dead bugs, I have not seen a bug, alive or dead, inside or out. Talstar P and Talstar granules have effectively tamed the myriad of bugs we get here in the desert.

    Talstar

    By Rose on 02/07/2013

    Again we own a 80 unit complex and families have animals and when they move out we also have flea issues. Before we enter the apartment we spray in front of us, and then we go back the next day and check again. If we find a few or even if we find nothing we give it one more spray and we are good. We have been using this product for a year and it really works.

    WONDERFUL PRODUCT--BY A DIY MOM

    By Anonymous on 08/13/2013

    We have been having a lot of rain here in the south. Seems every bug imaginable is trying to seek shelter in our home. Our problems have been with fire ants, spiders, silverfish, roaches and black crickets. Can you belive that, a cricket? Rest assure you I am a cleaning addict and can only relate our problems to the rain and living next to farm fields, just behind our subdivision. Also being that we have not had a problem in the past and until recently. However, I treated the outside and inside of our home as directed. We have seen amazing results. We have seen no ants, roaches, silverfish, crickets and the spiders that have made it inside we find them dead. This product is amazing. I give this product a 5 star rating. I will continue to use this product. Thank you so much DoMyOwnPestControl. I am sure this product has helped save me $$ by doing this myself. Thanks again----BY DIY MOM.

    Works every time!

    By Ty on 04/26/2014

    I live in North Central Florida,nothing has been as effective as Talstar P in keeping Cinch bug under control in my yard. TIP:treat early in the season March-April before the critters are noticable and then again in 30 days. Problem solved!

    WOW

    By Mark on 06/26/2014

    My first use of Talstar One was in the North Woods of Wisconsin. The mosquitoes are unbearable this year. They are out all day long regardless of sky, humidity, and wind. Within minuets of the application they were gone, then the gnats, then everything else. Eerily quite at night as there is NO noise from the forest. Gone were the crickets and everything else. While my neighbors are wearing bug jackets and hoods, I am in shorts and a t-shirt without repellent. Even more amazing than Talstars effectiveness is the barrier that it creates. Just outside the application area is like a jungle. I have done several applications since then with the same results. Aquatic warnings!! JUST BUY IT AND USE IT! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!

    Talstar

    By Linda on 07/29/2014

    I had a problem with mosquitos, ants, slugs, chiggers and a variety of other insects. Since I have sprayed this product I am bug FREE! It really is amazing and I have been spreading the word about this awesome product. I use it outside, inside and every where in between, lol. It is fantastic and has no smell. I bought 6 gallons so far and have been sharing it with my family and friends. Buy this product if you have any sort of pest control problem and you won't be disappointed.
