Talstar P (Talstar One)
By Walt on 09/23/2010
This works great for controlling lawn pests and is real easy to use with just a hose-attatced sprayer. I am now going to use it for home perimeter insect controll with a back-pack sprayer(REALLY worth the initial expense!) and discontinue my bi-monthly pest control service.

Talstar P
By Tom on 06/23/2011
Excellent product. This year has been a wet and rainy year resulting in more than usual mosquitoes and with the warm days the flies as well have been a problem. After one application of Talstar, we are able to enjoy being outside without being driven back in due to problem bugs. Application is easy, has lasted three weeks after application, immediate effect when applied. DoMyownpestcontrol was excellent to deal with.

TalstarOne
By Dave on 01/21/2012
time between placing my order and my Talstar sitting on my front doorstep was less than 3 days! i've bought several products from DMOPC and they never fail to impress!. i've used Talstar in the past and it's as good as advertised, and where it really shines is on ants and carpenter bees. DMOPC, you have a customer for life! i'm thinking the pest control co. i work for should start buying from you! again, thank you!

Powerful Barrier
By Tp on 06/10/2012
We have bugs of all types here in Oklahoma...Talstar P (Talstar One) has proven to be an excellent barrier and eradicator. This product has no noticeable smell, dries quickly and has proven to effectively control every type of pest to cross the Talstar Barrier; I purchased this product to primarily control the Brown Recluse...I will continue to use this product because IT WORKS!

BEST ALL AROUND BUG KILLER EVER
By Anonymous on 07/09/2013
I've been using Talstar P for 6 years and it is by far the best all around bug killer ever. After I spray around the ranch, I see dead everything; fleas, spiders, scorpions, grasshoppers, beetles, and every kind of water related bugs ever seen. It's safe around all the critters, inside or out. Colorless, ordorless it's the best and if I could only have one chemical for pest control Talstar P would be my choice.

Mosquito problem
By Ames on 05/11/2014
I was looking for something to get rid of Mosquitos after repeated bites to the point of where I looked like I suffered from weird skin disease. This talstar was applied 1 oz to 1 gallon. Within 2 days there were no more Mosquitos. No one believed me. I did get one bite at dusk one day but compared to the swarms previously, I would say I have a mosquito free yard. I got to enjoy the backyard again. I have had two grilling parties so far and no one has gotten bit. Awesome! Thank you everyone for writing these reviews so I could have found this product and enjoy my yard again.

Commercial Product, Perfect for Home Use
By Adam on 06/30/2014
I worked for a lawn care company for over a decade and have used this product many times, but never saw the results. I purchased this a few weeks ago and sprayed my entire property. The pile of dead bugs on my porch the following day was the first good sign. It's been several weeks since and there are still almost no mosquitoes on my property. When I sprayed this product commercially as a flea and tick spray it cost about $60, an entire gallon, 128 gallons of product only cost $58. This is a no-brainer, and safe for kids and pets!!

Talstar P
By Richied on 12/24/2016
Since I've used this Talstar P, even in rainy season down here in Florida, I have had the peace of mind, and body from bugs for 3 months at a time! My main concern was any kind of fleas, cockroaches, and ants which I no longer have. If any dare to land on my property, they die quickly. 1oz per gal. is all that is needed. Potent stuff! I also use the Ortho Dial 'N Spray Hose End Sprayer when I spray the yard.

A fantastic product
By Dan on 07/07/2017
When I purchased my new house in 2013 it had three bodies of water as well as a stream and a real mosquito problem. After a Google search I found do my own pest control.com and they recommended Talstar with a solo 451 backpack blower. I purchased the Talstar as recommended and the blower. I have used this product now every year at least two or three applications and it is nothing short of incredible. The trick is you have to make sure that you get lots of coverage on the underside of leaves not just the top. Mosquitoes love to hide in dark wet areas and this is where this product is effective. Not to mention, with light rain topical applications are more likely to be washed away. Now in 2017 I have upgraded to a 16 gallon tree sprayer with an electric pump. This gives me more coverage and more saturation in the areas that count. I drive around with a golf cart on my property and spray all of the potentially affected areas. This product will kill an entire host of different nuisance pests however I use it exclusively for mosquitoes and like I said above it works great. The best endorsement for this product is the fact that I pay a professional exterminator to come out once a year and washed on my roof line and house to make sure that we don't get wood boring bugs on our cedar siding and shake roof which will destroy the house. I asked them what they would use or do use for mosquito control and/or insect control and they said demon or Talstar. I stopped paying them $350 a year to spray my house and I do it myself now. Give it a try, you'll be glad you did.... One last piece of advice, if you're planning on cooking out with company say Friday night, make sure you're out there on Wednesday applying this product. Although it does seem to have an immediate effect when sprayed directly on these pests given a few days they'll all be gone. Good luck to you.

Best stuff ever made for unprofessionals
By Brittany on 03/30/2018
Absolutely shocked and amazed at how great this product works. My husband and I noticed last summer of water bugs coming inside our home or few roaches here and there that were small. If you are anything like me I hate bugs of any kind especially a roach. We have never had this issue before and I wanted something that was going to do the job inside and outside. I started researching pest control companies and found the product Talstar P. I read the reviews and it was a professional product for customer purchase over the counter. It was money well spent. We spray as recommended by directions inside around baseboards, doorways, underneath the stove, refrigerator, and corners. Outside my husband sprays 3ft out from the house and sprays the outline perimeter, windows, patio, porch, sun room, around where our daughter plays, and near the dogs area. We haven't had any issues with any roaches. I have seen 3 since last summer each one has been dead or just froze in place and slow moving. I noticed it killed all bees we had, mosquitoes, gnats, flies, spiders, stink bugs etc. The only thing I hated was the poor lady bugs that got killed. But I HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who is having an issue with few pests! But it want stop and infestation that would be more in depth.

None Better
By Charles on 05/19/2010
Excellent service. I received what I ordered after having all of my questions about which product to buy answered. Also, they have great tutorials which explain how best to apply the product. I could not be happier with this experience. I only wish that I could give them more stars.

Fantastic pest controler
By Gene on 09/29/2010
Works as expected. I am very satisfied. I mixed one ounce to a gallon of water. I used it outside my home and it was very effective on spiders, red hornets, fire ants, crickets, grasshoppers and pretty much any other bug around the house.

A godsend for spider relief
By Jeremy on 08/08/2011
I bought this to eliminate black widows and other spiders in my garage in Raleigh, NC. I have since used it all around the house, crawl space, ornamental trees, kids' playset, etc. It has apparently eliminated all spiders and other bugs from the garage, and I was able to vacuum up the debri in there and it is so nice. It is also a great bargain, since this 3/4 gallon makes YEARS of effective relief for my single-family home. I have since given some ounces to my mother-in-law and co-workers to help them at their home. Would buy again for sure.

great stuff on mosquitoes
By Charleston on 08/31/2011
We live on about 3/4 of an acre lot with lots of old growth pines, oaks, and gum trees. Lots of shade and grass for mosquitos. Tried everything from the Lowes brand insect kill to mosquito magnets to hiring a professional. The professional used a fogger and mint smelling natural chemical that kept the mosquitoes away for a couple days and the chemicals that he later used would work for about a day. Found that Mavrik insecticide worked okay (knocked down about 80% for a 5 day period) but still not the results I wanted for my wife and 2 young kids playing in the yard. Read the reviews on this product and gave it a shot. It's been wonderful. No mosquitoes for almost 10 days! NONE. That was a welcome change. It's been raining a lot here lately so it may even last longer without rain. Sprayed both my parents yard and my brothers yard and they both confirmed it crushed their mosquito problems too. Very pleased with this product and hope my yard isn't glowing from outer space from all the chemicals but this product sure does work. Thanks Talstar P! Hope this helps.

mosquito killer
By Dennis on 09/15/2011
Mosquitos are the worst in Hyde county,N.C. than anywhere I know about, so after hurricane Irene, county mosquito control spraying was not enough. Heard about Talstar P from a friend that had used it for 2 years with excellent results on all type of flies and mosquitos. Marco Gibbs was right about it's the best he has every used and I total agree.It works above average.No more mosquitos problems if you used this product.

fleas are gone
By Pam on 06/19/2012
We live in Florida and with little to no cold weather we get alot of fleas. Our Doberman likes to lay in the backyard grass. She would have 4 to 5 fleas on her everytime she came in the house,even with flea prevention. I sprayed once with Talstar, and no fleas! I love this product.

Best Ever!
By Carol on 02/26/2013
I've lived in Fl for 3 1/2 yrs and have fought the fleas and ants in my yard with every OTC product I could find, and with a professional lawn service ($35 per mo.!!) without sucess. After ONE treatment the fleas and the biting ants are gone!! Wish someone had told me about Do My Own Pest Control back then! Easy to apply, affordable, great product!

Talstar P
By D.walter on 04/12/2013
I used to have problems with ants in the kitchen and garbage can storage area. After using TalstarP, the ants stay outside and away from the garbage cans. I also had termite activity in a second story closet. I spray TalstarP directed in the "saw dust holes" eliminated the problem. Wonderful product.
