  • Asked by Bob from Newberry, Florida
    02/15/2017
    Q
    How often should I apply Talstar Xtra Granules? How soon can I apply Southern Ag Atrazine weed killer?
    Grass is predominantly St Augustine. I want to treat for bugs 1st, then follow-up with a weed killer for St Augustine.
    A

    There is not a waiting period between application of insecticides and herbicides unless the product label expressly prohibits it. Talstar XTRA generally lasts 60-90 days, depending on pest pressure. You can view more tips in our Warm Season Turf Guide.

    Q
    Talstar Xtra vs demand g
    Which is better for a all around lawn insect killer? I'm having a problem with ticks and Japanese beetles. Also occasional ant piles. I'm looking basically to wipe the backyard clean of bugs.
    A
    Bothe Talstar Xtra and Demand G are great products. Talstar Xtra however, has a little more "kick".  Talstar Xtra uses two different active ingredients and the granules will dissolve in under a minture after being watered.

  • Asked by Walter from Jacksonville, Fl
    08/06/2016
    Q
    What are the benefits or disadvantages of the different applications of Talstar P and Talstar XTRA?
    A

    Talstar P has a monthly residual on the exterior areas where the Talstar XTRA Granules will last 2-4 months in the lawn. The benefits of treating with the liquid solution is that you could treat the interior cracks and crevices quarterly for pest control as well as on the siding and around entry points (ie window frames, door frames, garage, etc).

  • Asked by Nancy from Blanco, Tx
    09/08/2014
    Q
    If I already put these granules on my black-eyed pea crop, before I read the Q & A, will it poison the crop? Will I get sick from eating the peas?
    A

    Talstar XTRA Granules are not labled for vegetable gardens. We cannot advise for you to consume anything from the garden after Talstar Xtra was applied. Instead you could use something like Sevin Lawn Insect Granules. If a granule is not necessary, another great option would be the Fertilome Triple Action Plus which can be sprayed in and on the garden for control of insects and vegetable diseases, and the food can be harvested the same day.

    Q
    What would be the proper setting for a Scotts Edgeguard spreader?
    A
    The Talstar XTRA Granules label does not list this specific Scott's spreader. We recommend contacting the manufacturer direclty to get the correct calibration. You may contact the manufacturer FMC directly at 800-321-1362. Scott's website also has a Spreader Setting Tool on their website, you may access this tool here. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to assist you.
