Purchased, sprayed very heavily in the back yard, used almost 4 gallons of water, with 4 oz of Talstar. Worked for a few hours and then the mosquitos were back. I know its not a solve all but it does say to work for 3 months. Very disappointed.

Ordered this product after reading all the outstanding reviews. Used it in the basement washroom and 3-4 days later still having spider problems. Sprayed the outside area for small white moths, seems to have reduced the number but even after the 2d spraying still have a problem but smaller.

undecided
By Chad on 07/31/2020
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.
open container
By Douglas on 05/15/2020
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.
Still waiting for ants to be gone

Not Sure.
By Drew on 09/04/2020
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.
Insects yes mosquitoes no
By Justin on 09/06/2019
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!
Talstar P
By E. on 07/19/2024
Works great except….the white flies here in West-Central Florida seem to be immune to this product, I’ve applied it three weekends in a row on my Golden Duranta and the critters keep reproducing, laying eggs and sucking the life out of the plants. I focused on the underside of the leaves but covered the whole plant. No success. Otherwise this product works great on all the other pests…meh on ghost ants - BE CAREFUL OF POLLINATORS.

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.
Neutral reciew
By Donna on 09/11/2020
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.

Slow ship
By Jim on 10/30/2020
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!

It's okay

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

just sprayed
By Browniee on 06/29/2024
After using the two baits the sweet one and the protein one for two weeks plus, the protein one only the tiny ants eat it but they all the ants like the sweet gel stuff. so today I went around and sprayed the whole foundation of house and under clap board and one foot off foundation on ground good soaking per instructions. Will see if this knocks some numbers down of ants. sprayed it on some ants roaming around it killed them. only 3 stars for now till I see some drop in ants

Gnat Control
By Rap on 09/01/2011
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.
