Customer Reviews for Talstar P Professional Insecticide

I purchased Talstar P from this web site last year and received for outstanding customer service and very quick delivery. For a number of years we have been unable to sit outside in the summer because of a mosquito problem. We have tried a number of products bought at the local home improvement center which worked for only a short while and spottily. We bought the Talstar P and backpack sprayer after finding out that a couple of local pesticide companies use it for mosquito control ( and charge $500-600 for 3 monthly applications)! I just received a shipment of this years product and plan for another mosquito free summer. We have been ecstatically happy with the results we have had with the Talstar P, were able to sit outside all summer long with NO mosquitos. I would highly recommend it.

An early spring in Nebraska brought out the mosquito's and bugs in early March. They were already swarming me and making the outdoor experience less than desireable. One application of Talstar and I haven't seen a mosquito since. I didn't think that was possible. I covered one acre along with a Trimec application and results were immediate for eliminating mosquitos and dandelions. It doesn't get much better than eliminating those two pests from my acreage.

Great product...I use every 4 months only on the exterior of my home and I have NO BUGS! The small cockroaches have been a problem in the past, but Talstar has totally annihilated them!

Excellent response on order and delivery. Quart seems to be the right size for my use in yard for spot treatment. Primary use is for mole crickets in area of yard lights. Great container design for ease of measurement and mixing. So for it is working great.

Have bought many products from lowes and home depot hoping and wishing they would work and they did for maybe a day or two. Tried to kill ants in the yard and they would just move to another spot. Talstar P on the other hand works great it kills the ants dead within 5 minutes of using it. I had a spider problem, have not seen one since I used talstar. Great product, I have and would recommend to anyone. Thanks DMOPC

Easy to use I feel like I am in control of my pest control now instead of following around the pest control company and telling them where to spray! I have seen the product work the bugs are dead outside my house!!

I have been using this for over 15 years and it works awesome! I use 1 ounce per gallon on the yard, 1 & 1/2 ounce per gallon on the foundation area, and 2 ounces per gallon on the interior of my home, including carpet & baseboards. I have not had an interior bug for over 15 years, except a few dead ones, including my entire garage!

Sprayed 2' up, 2' out around the exterior of our house and the critters are done. The palmetto roaches make it about 8" past the barrier to our screened patio and end up on their back. Also knocked back the mosquitos greatly by spraying broad leaved foliage, low shrubs and damp areas. Highly recommended.

We had a serious mole cricket problem in our yard. After much investigation on the web, we determined Talstar P was what we needed. Got the 3/4 gal at a great price along with a sprayer. We sprayed the yard in segments to our dog still could go out to use the "bathroom." It's been over a month now since we completed spraying and there are no new mounds from the mole crickets. Not sure how long before they show again, but we will be ready since 3/4 gal makes a lot of spray. Extra benefit of using this spray was we got rid of all the little ant mounds in the yard and also don't have to worry bout fleas. Will buy again whenever we use all of what we have.

Had major problems with carpenter ants coming into my house. Sprayed the perimenter plus one ounce per thousand sq.ft. of the yard. Carpenter ants are now under contol. Also found talstar p to be compatible with many other lawn chemicals, such as preemergence. This has been a time saver.

My house has been invaded by carpenter ants from time for many years. I have effectively controlled them over the years by injecting diazanon into key locations. When my supply of diazanon (banned in 2004) ran out a couple of years ago my carpenter ants became an uncontrolled nuisance. Nothing they sell at Home Depot would touch them. Then I discovered Talstar. I injected it into the area where I knew the ant larva were stored, and also through the siding between every pair of studs. Within a couple of days all signs of carpenter ants had disappeared. Great product.

Noticed results after first application and did a follow up a week later just to make sure. My whitefly problem is under control. Research on the internet for a product and supplier that met my needs was fast and easy. Rather than buying ineffective products from the big box stores, Talstar P has done the job.

This is the second year that I have used this product. And I cant say enough good things about it. My house is a 100 yr old rock cottage with a lot of hiding places for bugs. This is the first product of this kind that has done an great job of taking care of these varmits. I also use it in the tack room at the barn and it is amazing the spiders and wasps it kills and keeps away.

We, at times, have had a slight roach problem in the past and I wanted to spray a little early inside and out and get the jump on any problem that might come up later on. Waiting too long in treatment for some pest's just makes the treatments more bothersome and expensive. Don't wait to see more roaches, one is enough. Strike first and fast with Talstar P.

Talstar P has eliminated my carpenter ant problem in very positive way. No residual odor and so far, no retreatment of the area. Very impressed with the product.

Bought to control ants, earwigs, fleas, and spiders outiside... This is my first time using this product and I'm not sure how well it's doing yet to be honest. I can say that I am seeing a huge reduction in these pests since only using it one time.

I'd give it 5 stars although it's just a little too soon to rate it at a 5. I applied this (Talstar P) on our St Augustine lawn to control Chinch bugs. So far I have not seen any turf damage after applying Talstar 2 1/2 weeks ago. I'm not sure about the timing of when the Chinch bugs do their damage but from reading the results of other reviews on this site I feel confident that this product will do the job it was intended to do. If it works well for me throughout the summer months I will be using this product to help maintain my lawn for years to come. So far so good, no bugs insight after a close inspection of my lawn deep down to the root! Thank You Tony C St Augusine, FL

Very nice company to deal with. Had a problem with the shipping (USPS failed to deliver) and they took care of it, as soon as they found out about the problem, by resending my order. It's nice to see customer service is alive and well.

I spray groundcover for a client with 2 dogs (who run through the garden), and they're very happy with the reduction in ticks and fleas. Also very happy with the service from DoMyOwnPestControl.

I have been using this product going on 2 years now and I does an amazing job of keeping my yard Mosquito free. I also use it around the house as well as the corners and sides of my sons cedar playset for ticks, spiders, flies, etc and I couldn't be happier. The only problem that I have had is that even if I predillute the product in warm water before hand and run it through a screen when filling up my 25 gallon trailer sprayer, it still clogs the pre-filters in the sprayer nozzles once in a while. Not a deal breaker, but just wish it would completely dissolve in the tank.
