Customer Reviews for Talstar P Professional Insecticide

I have now sprayed my house top to bottom twice. I had oriental roaches, ants, wasps, pillbugs, and beetles when I moved in. After following the instructions the first time I noticed that the pillbugs and wasps were gone, but still had issues with the others. 2 weeks later I sprayed again, and I was still seeing the roaches, ants and beetles. I finally went and bought a raid fogger and already noticed a significant difference.

Waterbugs...dead. Ants...gone. Carpenter bees...dead. This stuff is amazing. Two days to get rid of water bugs. One hour after spraying carpenter bee holes I found five dead on the ground. You can't beat the value or the results. Follow the label and you'll save yourself a lot of exterminator bills!

When I bought this on sale I wondered if it would do the job of a professional service. I have been using this for the past 4 years or more and I can say with each time of the application, it is great. My wife hates to see any bugs and Talstar P does the job of keeping my wife happy. What more can a man say. Happy wife, Happy life.

This product works good for killing and preventing fire ants and roaches which are very prevalent in Florida. It does a fair job killing chinch bugs and usually requires 2 or 3 applications to get rid of them completely. The product seems to be safe at the recommended concentrations. We have experienced no ill effects.

Good product. No residual odor. Sprayed two bathroom where we get very small black ants. Works well but I still see an occasional straggler. I will see how it works long term.

Did not have the success in mosquito control that we had before but it is a exceptional year for mosquitoes too. In the past we were very happy with this product. We will give it the benefit of a doubt because it is an exceptional year for mosquitoes and continue to use it.

I injected Talstar P in fire ant mounds and applied surface treatment. After one application, I have zero indication that the ants being present or movement of the mound to a new site. I call it a successful application.

Bought Talstar P to control horrendous fly problem. It certainly does work. It is still killing flies & BIG spiders 2 weeks later. Lots of other unwanted pests are dropping dead also. No odor is a plus.

This is a 5 star product. Great results, you can't believe how well it works. I am using to control fire ants and household bugs and once sprayed you find dead bugs for weeks. Fantastic product at a good price.

Before using Talstar we could not let our grandchildren play in the yard. The mosquitos were terrible! Now everyone enjoys the outside. This product works fantastic even after torrid rains after spraying. We gave some to our neighbor who sprayed before a July 4th party. He got rave reviews for the mosquito free yard. Now he's ordered his own.

Will kill mosquitoes, carpenter ants, sweet ants. diminishes colony but needs to be applied several times. I spray on evergreens, hollyhocks, and I can say that the Hollyhocks never looked so good. Had friend purchase product for her cottage. Sprayed one day and the next carpenter ants were laying dead next to spray area.

I use this product for a 'bug free' environment. I spray according to directions 2 times a year and have had GREAT results with it. Do not have to always be cleaning spider webs or fighting ants, bugs. They are not in or around my home with this product. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product

I have used this product for years in and around my homes in Southern California. I spray every few months for ants, caterpillars, crickets and flies. It is one of the best products on the market that I know of. Buying from "Do My Own Pest Control" has always been a positive experience as well. If I have a question all I need do is call or email them. I always get a rapid response. Kudos to this company and this product!

I've spent approximately $400 pr yr, for 10 yrs, paying an exterminator to "wash" my house (pressure spray) to keep pests out for the spring, summer, and fall in NE Ohio. Right around spring it's extremely important to treat the house as a means of deterring stinging insects from establishing nests on your property. The old adage "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" ( Ben Franklin) certainly applies here. In June of 2013 I moved to a much larger property and the exterminator's fees went WAY up. I figured that I could buy the same equipment and do the job myself. The theory was a couple of years it would pay for itself. So I went online and found this site on Google, I called the number for advice and read the reviews. It would appear that Talstar P was the way to go.... in fact this $28 product might be what the exterminator was using all those years. I bought a Solo 451 and TS1... the results have been Incredible! I have a one acre lake and creek, lots of water, lots of mosquitoes....not any more. I've sprayed 6 gals of solution over 5 acres and the bugs are gone! I've sprayed my fishing dock, patio, exterior of home, shed , around tree line, ect and I have at least accomplished what I was paying the exterminator $400 for. So, for a mostest investment (you dont need the backpack blower) and $28 I've saved about $600 per year. AND i have to admit... playing with the blower is a lot of FUN. LOL PS in my case a dilution rate of 1 ounce per gallon: It would appear that "6 ounces of Telstar is worth $600 in savings". :)

Sprayed Talstar outside up sides and out several feet from house resolved mosquitos, which is good because I constantly walk out of house with vacuum containers of fleas. Talstar indoors around baseboards/cracks did not do much for fleas. It cannot be used to broadcast spray indoors so I used Demize EC/Precor for that several times which did not work either. Permethrin can be broadcast sprayed indoors and does help with fleas.

The northwoods had the worst infestation of mosquitoes in the 25 years we have summered here. I heard about this product from a neighbor. I used their 4 gal. backpac (easy to use even for small women) and the Talstar product....We used our patio that eve for the first time in a month. We were having lots of people coming and I thought of having 6 adults, two large dogs and 4 girls in and out of the house, and thus a house full of mosquitoes..Horrible! This product saved my sanity...I havent had misquitoes for over a month with one application..and its safe for all flora and fauna. I took 2 hrs. spraying everything I could even the flora down the road to our home...

Talstar has helped control "Tawny (Rasberry) Crazy Ants" at my residence in Galveston County. Nothing probably will eliminate them. The Talstar seemed OK to use indoors and on trees. It left no visible stains. I have applied it around the exterior perimeter of the house and garage more than once - it goes a long way.

We have a large population of Katydid's on and around our home. My husband sprayed 2 feet up the brick and 3 feet from the house. It worked great and is still working a month later. I would reccomend this product.

We live out in the country so we get a lot of bugs coming in. This year it was millipedes, I had never even seen a wormy bug like this before , but they seemed to like our house, and we would kill about 10 a day, Bought this, watched the video, sprayed inside and out, no more millipedes, in fact no more bugs in the house at all...Yippee! I love the wide variety of bugs it kills, super easy to use, doesn't stain, quick, painless..and best of all...no bugs!! Love it!!

Couldn't step outside without Asian Tiger Mosquitos on you within 20 seconds. They were everywhere and awful at all hours of the day. We would never sit outside on the patio because we were being eaten alive. Couldn't take our infant daughter out for a dip in her little kiddie pool because they were everywhere and relentless in their attacks. I didn't want to pay one of the local mosquito squad companies to come out and spray and charge me their high fee monthly, but i was on the verge of doing it. After a little research, I decided to attempt it myself first, so I found the reviews for Talstar. I was very skeptical, but decided to give it a try. I applied as directed along base of foundation, along property lines, shrubs, ivy, flower beds, under shed. etc. in one evening after work. I mixed and used about 6 gallons total at 1 oz. per gallon. Probably took an hour and a half to spray with the basic no-frills pump sprayer I ordered at the same time. By the next afternoon they were gone and we haven't seen them in 3 weeks at time of this review. We are finally able to enjoy being outdoors in the evenings. I regret not looking into this stuff sooner, it works great. Will re-apply monthly and this 3/4 gal bottle should last me a long time.

You would not believe how bad the mosquito's were this spring and summer. A friend told us about your product and we ordered a gallon. It's probably the greatest product I have tried in a long time. Even after a rain the mosquito's were gone. Thanks to you our summer was saved and we could enjoy the outdoors again.

This company is terrific. I did my own extermination quickly, easily and efficiently. I moved to a new location on July 1st and saw some big waterbugs for the first few days - until I contacted your company and received my shipment. One spray in susceptible areas and the bugs are gone. - with no health hazard to myself or other people.

Have applied one heavy dose externally per directions and the ants that were living it up on the over the counter stuff are gone! I'll apply inside and out periodically.

I recently moved to a rural area right next to a forest. There were bugs all over the place, including some scary huge spiders. I did some research and decided to try Talstar P. I applied it around the perimeter of the house 2 months ago according to the directions and the video instructions on this site. We have had almost no bugs in the house since the application. I can actually see dead bugs along the areas that I sprayed. They walk a couple inches across the barrier and stop dead. Amazing stuff! I'm going to re-apply every 3 months and don't expect to ever have a bug/spider problem again.
