Customer Reviews for Talstar XTRA Granular Insecticide

I have bought The regular version of this before. It worked so well I bought the stronger version this time. I have used it on ants, roaches and grubs. I recommend this product. My only disappointment is that the bugs don't look any deader than they did with the standard strength stuff.

Easy to spread and works on a wide array of pests. Lasts for a long time, great for quarterly customers. _a href="https://www.rodentguys.com/"_Rodent Guys Pest Control_/a_ uses this product with a spreader but need to be careful around edible plants/trees.

I used this according to the directions for fire ants and flushed the mounds with water. Within a few hours, dead ants all around. I will definitely continue using Talstar XTRA!!!

Your service was even better than expected. The product arrived much earlier than promised and I am encouraged to always look to you for my landscaping needs. Your prices are very fair.

A monthly application, all around and 12 feet out from the house, has been keeping the little pismires at bay for 10 years now.

So far this has worked as described. Been down about 3 weeks with no sign of ticks.

Purchased two bags for 20,000 sq ft to treat chiggers, scorpions, and ants. Very effective as we now have our back yard back!

Talstar Xtra Granules is little expensive, but it is by far the best lawn pesticide I have used. It works great to keep mole crickets and chinch bugs in check.

I applied the contents of the bag easy enough. Waiting to see if it is as effective as the PL Granules I used last time for mole crickets and ants. The size of these are definitely easier to broadcast.

I used the liquid version multiple times. The last time I used the liquid version it rained soon after applying so I bought this. Seems to be working good. I haven't seen any bugs in my back yard. It's a little easier to apply than the liquid. Will buy again and use.

Our home was being overrun by millipedes outside as well as in our walkout basement. For the past couple years we've seen an increase in pest activity. I've been using Talstar P liquid around the perimeter of the home with great success, however with the increased activity I was looking for a product that would act faster with a lasting residual affect. I applied the Talstar XTRA Granules using a hand spreader and watered in per the instructions. Results were immediate and the siege has been halted. I will continue to purchase both products without hesitation. Do My Own Pest Control has provided superb service!

It's been about 2 weeks since I put the Talstar Granules out. We live in South Carolina and have always had lots for fire ant mounds. Did not see one single mound when mowing the yard, not one! I'll update this review in a few weeks to report on how long this lasts.

I will have to update with product results after I apply, but I have to say WOW! I ordered product on Tuesday and it was delivered to my front porch on Wednesday. Pleasant surprise to have such speedy service.

Purchased to control the fleas in my yard. It's only been a few weeks but it seems to be doing the job. I found very few fleas on my on my dog since spreading it on my lawn. My only complaint is that I couldn't find information on what setting to use on my Scott's Turf Builder Edgeguard mini spreader. It appears that a sufficient setting was used based on the flea reduction. Perhaps a higher setting would have eliminated the fleas?

Started applying to my Florida 9000sqf lawn every 2 months and I'm very happy with results. Did find 2 tiny ant holes and spot sprayed. Doing a great job with Red ants. Neighbor just bought some to help with his red ant problem

This product does what it says it can do. Here in Florida we have a large number of insects in our lawns. I use this product a number of times though out the year for insect free lawns. Great for red ants.

I purchased 2 bags of this product and it only killed 20% of the ants. Fleas are still terrible. I followed the instructions exactly. I applied with a lawn speader and it rained the evening it was applied. A lot of money spent and a waste of time. Now, I have to start over with another product and spend even more money. What a rip off. I wish I could give you negative stars. Will never buy from these folks again and will tell all my friends and neighbors what kind of experience I had.

I bought Talstar granules for ant control. The product was used as directed. After applying it I continued to notice ants several days later. I then applied a second treatment. Two treatments later I still have ants and I'm convinced the ants used the granules to help build there mounds. Not impressed with this product. Not purchasing again.

First time using Talstar and had one mound appear near neighbor's yard. Several days afterward, new mound and all other mounds were totally inactive and dissipated after some rain. Found no further activity anywhere treatment was done. The best broadcast product I have ever used.

I had an issue with moths in the yard for the last 2 years and it was getting worse. When I would cut the lawn they would fly out in droves. If you weren't careful you could get a mouthful. After just one application of the XTRA Granular Insecticide 10 days later the problem was salved. The last time I was cutting the lawn I only saw 2 in the half acre I cut. I'm very happy with the progress this has made. I'm hoping that brown patches will slowly disappear and turn green.

I build a barrier around my house using a rotation of a couple of spray encapsulated products. I usually don't see many dead scorpions around but they aren't getting into the house much. Last week I added Talstar to the barrier to provide a wider barrier in the flower bed and yard area closest to the house. After a few days, I looked on the front porch and found 3 dead scorpions. I'd be doing really well if I could figure out how to get the ones out of the attic that come in via the trees.

I bought the Talstar to control a Carpenter Ant problem in my oak trees. I circled the tree with the product, but the ants were unaffected.

I tried this instead of my regular and it was a disappointment. I have moles and loads of bugs (including ants). Prior I rarely had ants and never had moles. I'm going back to my regular. Not worth the added expense.

This is the first time we’ve used this product. We used to get another brand but the store we were getting it from changed its hours and made it very difficult to get to. Compared the ingredients and it was exactly the same. Previous product killed everything for months. This one has not given the same results. It’s lessened them but you still can see activity and several ant hills have popped up since applying this.
