Talstar P
By Daniel on 09/02/2017
I bought this because it is supposed to kill spiders. I live on lake Erie and we have tons of spiders that weave webs all over the houses and cars. I followed the directions, sprayed my house and inside my garage down. Never killed one spider nor did it repel them. Seems I wasted my money.

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.

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.

So far so good
By Brian on 07/07/2010
This seems to be the summer of the scorpion in Central Texas. I guess the wet spring (thank God) contributed to the increased critter population. I ran across DMOPC site by surfing the web. I was going to have a "professional" do the job, but I couldn't see shelling out $100 for one application. After I read the Talstar P reviews I decided to try it. So far the scorpions seem to respect the barrier. I've seen two dead ones at the entrance to the garage. My wife found one dead in the utility room the next morning after the application. He must have been hiding under the washer/dryer. Again, he went to scorpion heaven. Talstar has no odor and it's easy to apply. I've used the Big Box store offerings before this with some results. I hope this stuff does a better job, so far it has. By the way, DMOPC gave me excellent service with prompt shipping. I'll be back!

Still hoping

I had a pretty good infestation in my yard of chinch bugs. They were using the weeds like little umbrellas. Every time I pulled up a weed I could literally see 5 or 6 of the little buggers run. I have applied Talstar product as directed three times and I believe I'm beginning to see improvement. Only 2 or 3 run when I pull up a weed. As far as other bugs I'd say its a great product and protects the house well. Just hope a couple more treatments on the yard will get those chinch bugs.

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.

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.

Talstar P
By Mark on 04/25/2013
Been using this product for 3 years now. Where I live there is normally ant problems 6 months out of the year. Since I started using this product, I simply spray the pine trees in the spring when the ants come out of the trees. This takes care of the problem for the rest of the year. I also spray around the house foundation. Does a great job on mosquitoes. Spraying the lawn twice a year takes care of the problem. You won't find an insecticide that is this effective at lowe's, Home Depot, Grange Co-Op etc.

I had an infestation of grandaddy long legs or harvestman spiders last summer and I had the Orkin Man come spray them but I was not happy with the results, so I researched them on the internet and decided to try Talstar P on them this year when they came out. This stuff really works on them. They are gone now. 5 stars for this product. It didn't take very much to mix a gallon of liquid and I only needed 1/2 gal to spray all around the outside my house.

Talstar is the best spider control
By Steve. on 07/10/2013
We live on a lake. As one knows the spiders are nearly uncontrollable. With this product we are and continue to be spider free. Would have to pressure wash the house twice in the summer due to spiders. Not anymore thanks to talstar.

Kind of dissapointed. Had to do about 3 applications before I stopped seeing ants in my kitchen. Also I was told this would completly kill them but i read somewhere that this product does not kill the nest as the ants dont bring it back to the nest because it kills them first. I really needed something that they would bring back to the nest to get rid of them for good
