I applied this product a week ago, so far I have not noted a big difference. I still see spiders. I have found a few other dead bugs on my deck.

Upon receipt of the product, I mixed it according to directions and sprayed the exterior of my home. Unfortunately, the week after was exceptionally warm here in California, and ants we're looking for water anywhere they could find it. We had a number of incidences where they came into the house across the boundary that I had sprayed. I sprayed them in the house and again at ever opening I could find around the home. After the initial incidences, I have had no more problems so hopefully the product is working well.

I bought this to control insects around my home. Mainly ants and yellow jackets which were both becoming a problem for me. Worked great on ants with only one treatment. Appeared to have no effect on the bees as they continued to enter nesting areas even after sprayed multiple times in one week.

Product appears to work as described and shipping time was great. However due to damage in shipping all product dosing instruction were destroyed from chemical leaking out of bottle. More care needs to be taken when packing chemicals. If product works well i will order again. Just be warned it may not arrive completely whole

I gave a 3 because I still dont have a definite response. I have only applied once and only in front yard to do my own inspection. The front yard has noticeably less mosquitos. I think I will still need to do a couple more applications before I have a for sure yay or yay. Reputable you tubers that I watch use it as well.

We have very aggressive gnats during hot, dry spells. This product was recommended, but seemed to only put a dent in the problem for a day or two. I know gnats can be a tough target, but please say this.

Received 1 gallon container in well sealed box. When I opened entire inside of box was covered with white residue. Top had been opened and cap was not very tight. Not much liquid was lost but had leaked out and was all over container and inside of box. Someone had opened, broke seal and put cap back on but not tight.

I read reviews before about mosquitoes which primarily got my attention. Mosquitoes have been particularly bad in Oklahoma this year so was hoping this could provide some reprieve. I sprayed in the yard, fence, tress, house and the next day my son still came in with multiple bites after playing in the backyard. Wish it would have worked like others described!

i am undecided. Apparently this is the checmical that ORkin uses on their monthly mosquito plan. The orkin guy showed me what they use. it worked until it rained. Then I have to respray. its supposed to last a month with or without rain as long as its applied and allowed to dry.. which it was. after the rain we all got ate up by mosquitos. had to reapply. used the entire bottle in less than a week of rain. Should have lasted several months according the the application insitructions. I wonder how orkin makes money on the monthly program when it doesn't even work. they must be giving refunds like crazy or making a bundle on re-applications. when applied during a dry spell it works wonders but not ideal if you live where it rains every few days or in my case, every day.

Tried product, mixed according to directions, still waiting for ants to be gone

Was this review helpful to you?  YesNo

Mixed a little more than recommend as I always do with these products. Had pressure washed three days before. Spayed Telstar vigorously basically soaked the porch. And two days later I still have new spider webs everywhere. This is the first I've purchased from here that doesn't seem to work.

I am using TalstarP on aphids on roses. After a couple applications, I am told that I am doing the right insecticide, applied in the correct manner, I have read all the tips, and followed directions. Even spoke with a person at DoMyOwn. Aphid control is spotty, but I am hoping it will get better. I was surprised to find that this insecticide is made in China, not the end of the world, but surprising. Anyway, I do appreciate DoMyOwn, good people, that are knowledgeable, and there to help. I just with I was getting better results with my TalstarP.

I purchased this product and was very hopeful it would be effective. I live in the deep south and every critter unimaginable roams around. I have been fighting roaches for a few months and thought this product would work; however, I have noticed no difference nor have I seen any dead bugs. Maybe I got a bad batch but it wasnt worth the money so far.

The product is the same as I can buy from numerous vendors. The value with shipping was my determining factor in purchasing from Do My Own. However FedEx took 2 days to get the product from N GA to S GA, then shipping to FL where it sat for 2 days longer...it took 6 days to FedEx a product to an adjacent state. Now I know why Tom Hanks was castaway!

I followed the instructions and I still have mosquitos. It probably knocked it down by 40% in my opinion.

Not a big savings but products are available. The ability to find the right product for the needs means something and the customer service is good.

Just sprayed two days ago. But if it works, will save me 400 dollars a year.

It just makes the ants change location. It does seem to work great for mosquito control.

It didn't get rid of the Chironomid midges, but it helped somewhat with the spiders the midges attract. I still have a problem, and I have no idea where to turn next.

Works good for Ants, does pretty good on Mosquitoes but has not made any noticable impact on Gnats. I was referred to this product while doing a search on Gnat control. I have sprayed once a week since I received the product. Probably won't buy again as this same control can be accomplished with triazicide granules and apllied faster and with less gear.

I uses this when I lived in Northern California for fleas and it worked great. However, I am now living in Central Florida and nothing has brought relief from the enormous flea problem here. I don't have faith that any product could control the massive fleas in this area.

The purchase came within days of ordering. The directions were easy to follow and the application went well. You really don't need to call a pro if you can read and follow simple instructions.
