About a week ago I used the prescribed solution - 1Tbsp/gal and it seemed to work okay in my finished basement, but upstairs is either hasn't had time to be effective or for some other reason it isn't working yet.

We're having the stink bug infestation, here in Maryland, and Google researching turned up Talstar P and DoMyOwnPestControl.com. I sprayed around the outside perimeter of my house, around windows and doors, and various spots in my basement. Within 2 days I noticed, not just the stink bugs dying, but also various other creepy crawlers in my basement dead in their tracks. I highly recommend this treatment. I will continue treatment after the weather gets warm again next spring.

Where we live in Central Florida we have a very serious midge problem. The professional exterminator, Clarke, has sprayed with some success, but still the midges are not under control. I went online to search for a chemical that would not only kill the midges, but have a long lasting residual effect. Unfortunately, Talstar didn't have any long range effect - maybe 2 or 3 days at the most. Not worth the $32 per pint price for the control of midges.

Talstar gets the job done. Most effective in eliminating scorpions, roaches and pesky ants.  Nothing else is as effective.

I used both the mound drenching (with a 2 gal. tank sprayer) followed up with a hose sprayer treatment of the yard. I had a driveway infestation you would not believe and ants under the slab of a 12' x 22' shed. It has only been several weeks since treatment, but so far, so good!  A lot cheaper than having it done. Last year, I had the shed "treated" for $125.00! I did this and the entire house and yard and still have more then 1/2 gal. of Talstar One left. I thought, for the price, it was worth a try. At this point, I am happy with the result. I live in central FL, ants love this place!

I bought this product because I had an infestation on my Meyer Lemon tree of Sri Lanka Weevils. I went to UFL's website, the authority on agriculture, and they recommended Talstar P for major infestations without any promises of results since not much research has been done on these new invasive pest. So I tried it out and I'm happy with the results. The weevils didn't drop dead on contact but by the next day they were all gone from the tree. We have had a couple good thunderstorms and the Talstar is still holding up on my tree. Not a single weevil in the last 3 weeks. New leaves are coming in, no new notching, and no weevils. I also tried it on some wasps nest with the same results. They don't drop dead on contact, it takes a few minutes, but they haven't come back to reoccupy their nest 3 weeks later. Also sprayed on the outside and inside of my house to keep out the ants. Since then most of the ants that make it in my house are dead along the baseboards and the few that are alive won't be for long.

First let me say, DMOPC is the best place to buy anything on the Internet. Fast service and they do what they say they will do. I purchased Talstar P for mosquito control. I live on a canal in Florida and even though local drive by treatments are made, mosquitoes still get in the grasses. One treatment according to label directions and I can sit outside now without those annoying little mosquitoes. Great product and great service, what a combination.

Guaranteed to kill stink bugs... and most everything else! I didn't see the full effects on stink bugs until next day where hundreds lay dead on the ground. Some insects like grasshoppers and crickets were killed on day 1.

Bought a gal of the Talstar P to fight the sugar ant problem I was having. They were so bad this year that anything and everything I tryed prior to Talstar P did not help for long. I would find ant trails going down the side walk for two to three houses. My neighbor even found them in his truck. I would find them in my Garage,Workshop,And inside the House.They were everwere. I recieved my 1gal of Talstar P from Do My Own Pest Control and watched the Video on there sight and started spraying. I walked around the next day and could not find one Ant around or in my house. My neighbor still had the suger Ant Problem. trails going into his House,garage,you could find trails going everwere. He was using Brand X for his Ant problem and It kept them away for a few days and they were back again. I told him about Talstar P and even sprayed around his House to show how it worked. Its been 7 weeks and "NO" Ants. Thanks Talstar P & Do My Own PestControl for stocking a great Product.

I originally bought this product because I had a problem with Sri Lankan Weevils on a Meyer Lemon Tree. I did a lot of research and I think it was FSU or whichever college is the authority on agriculture recommended trying Talstar which is how I found this page. I sprayed my Meyer Lemon with Talstar and they were all gone within a day. Then I started using on hornets nest and around the perimeter of my house. Since then I haven't seen a single live cockroach in my house (I live on the water in S. Florida so I had a lot of cockroaches prior to application of Talstar). I spray about once every 2 months, indoors and out and it's keeping out all the bugs except the ants which end up making it in and then dying. For those use ant baits. This product is also good on those pesky millipedes that like to find a way inside and die all over the house.

We had an infestation of crickets in our house and spiders in the garage. After one treatment, we haven't seen a single bug in our house. Talstar was easy to mix and apply and we were able to get it and a sprayer for less than one visit from a pest control company.

I used many differant kinds of flee and tick controls before using Talstar. This is the best prevention I have found. The salespesrson was very hepful by recommending Archer IGR to go with Talstar to kill the larva. Thanks for being a life saver for my pets.

I'm more than satisfied with my order from DoMyOwnPestControl and the product support before I ordered. The ladies I spoke with were very knowledgable about the products I was interested in. I ordered TalstarP as the rating were favorable 4.5-5.0 stars. On the first day of use I walked through my back yard at the crack of dawn and all types of fly's, bugs, moths, sqidos, fleas + unameits. Great I sprayed using a Ortho dial a spray and walked through my yard same time next morning and Nothing! Nothing! Great Product! Great Service. Received my order free shipping 4 days later. I will use DoMyOwn again in a heartbeat! no questions asked.

This site is awesome and this bug spray is awesome. Don't be put off by the high price (compared to regular , 'home depot', bug spray). 3/4 gal of Talstar makes 96 gallons of bug spray!!!! I sprayed this on the exterior of my house and interior. On the exterior I also sprayed my flower beds really well. It has been a cockroach grave yard out there ever since! I haven't seen a live roach inside or outside since I sprayed this stuff 2 weeks ago.

In the last 8 years I've captured over 500 brown recluse spiders on glueboards in my home and no over the counter pesticides seemed to work, I was told that I could never really totally eliminate the brown recluse spider. I've used Talstar P for 3 months now and my brown recluse ARE totally eliminated, all other bugs are gone too. I love this stuff!

I have been using this product for a couple of weeks and we have notice that our problem is finally improving. befoe this producl I have spent hundreds of dollars on other products and different companies to help but with no good results. I believe that by using the Talstar our problems will soon be resolved. I would recommend this product to anyone who is having a problem with mites of any type and can not find aanyone or anything to get rid of the problem. I know that I will always have some Talstar around my home from now on.

We moved to 3 acres in Knoxville Tenn last month and this is my first encounter with ticks. I spent 30.00 on a cheap flea and tick and the first week the dogs (5 of them) had a plethora of ticks. Went to the store and bought 180.00 for the "good stuff" and still had ticks. I finally figured I must start from the source and started researching home treatment pest control companies and while on their web site I found the word "talstar", searched that name and came across the DOMYOWNPESTCONTROL website and figured with 3 acres I better do my own spraying. Well its been 3 weeks and not one tick on the dogs. mind you I treated the 3 dogs that run into the leaves, trees and bushes with the "expensive" treatment but I did not treat the other 2 dogs that pretty much hang out with me and dont go running. NONE of them have got a tick...none......I could do a commercial for this product.......not kidding! #LOVEIT!

I had recurring issues with Black Widows in my garage corners and in my child's playhouse and in my crawl space. I have three young children and had tried several DIY sprays from Lowes and Home Depot, with no lasting effect. Of course I could Raid the individual spiders but that didn't help really. I have now used this product for three years (have only needed it in the summer) and it is miraculous! I spray the border around the outside of the house and liberally around the problem areas mentioned above. It has ELIMINATED every bug and kept them gone for up to two months. Actually, now I see a small bug now and then, but never black widows, and never a problem like before. This summer I haven't needed to even apply it. A 5 inch long lizard has taken residence right outside (and in) my garage, and he has been keeping the bugs down, but they don't sell those here. :) This spray is so cost effective, I have given some of the concentrate to like 5 different people for their homes. I proselyte this stuff on Facebook and I love DoMyOwnPestControl.com. They provided expert advice and recommended this. I could not be happier.

This does a good job on a broad spectrum of bugs. I doused the whole house and it took care of ants, spiders, and millipedes. I was also hoping it would take care of springtails but it didn't do so well with those. If you happen to spray your windows when going around the frame, it will leave a streaky mess.

I had issues with spiders hatching eggs and finding their way into my home - but when I sprayed with Talstar, the spiders became more and more minimal until they were gone. I even saw other little pests dead on their backs (ones I wouldn't normally see) This is a very good item and I do recommend it to anyone with little pest / critters.

The product came in the time frame specified. Directions were easy to follow and full of safety advice and emergency numbers. Application to the exterior was done via 4 gallon backpack sprayer. Following directions, all cracks, voids, window ledges, door openings and visible ant trails were sprayed. Also sprayed entire foundation area 1foot up the walls and 1 foot barrier on soil. Inside: Used 1/2 gallon hand sprayer and sprayed all visible ant trails, window areas, cracks, base boards, under/over counters and cupboards, door openings, etc. Pretty much every where ants might crawl. Within 3 days the amount of ants visible in the house disappeared. Still find a few piles of dead ants in corners and along base boards but nothing moving inside or out. No foul smell or odor. Follow safety sheet and wear eye protection when applying product as it is very easy to have the wind (outside application) or spray back (inside, product bounces off objects) hit your eyes. I plan to use this product as part of my routine pest control plan.

Needed something to take care of springtails, this took care of them plus spiders, stink bugs and a bunch of other bugs. Still killing outside bugs two weeks later. Best stuff I have ever used.

I highly recommend! This is my second purchase. Orkin use to use the same stuff on my property and I paid allot of money for it. Now I spray for about a dollar a gallon. I use it for brown recluse, black widow, scorpions, flies, ants, and fleas. After I got rid of the pest I would continue to spray evey 3 months around the perimeter to prevent re-infestation. I recently moved and encountered black widows and I have a toddler, I sprayed inside and out and fixed the problem. I have enough to help my friends and family with their bug problems as well. One tip for spiders- Brown Recluse Glue traps and lots of them, I bought the bulk box from this site and used them under sinks, cabinets, sofas, attic, garage and door corners. Talstar and glue traps solved my problem. At my work when I lived in OK, Talstar helped to eliminate two differnt infestations! One was stink beetle and the other were crickets, Approx 1000 or more. I sprayed on a friday and came back monday morning to sweep a carpet of dead crickets. Every day for the next week we spent the morning sweeping up dead crickets, it finally dwindled down to zero thankfully. This stuff works, I always use the 1oz to gallon ratio to get the maximum effectiveness.
