Customer Reviews for Talstar XTRA Granular Insecticide

only drawback is very fine. Need to place on lowest setting. Also so clear and fine you can not see where you placed. So needless to say you have to buy more than you really need.

We have had a lot of rain recently so I have not applied it yet. But I have used this product in the past with much success. That is why I have made another purchase of Talstar. Thanks for the great service you provide with quick delivery of my order.

Same thing our exterminator used. So much cheaper to do it ourselves.

I use this for my clients yards that complain of ticks. I use the battery powered Scott's handheld spreader and man it works like a dream! I only charge for the materials if I'm already there for a Spider treatment because I don't want my customers getting Lyme disease. They usually send me three referrals (or more) once I explain that I don't upcharge. Sure it adds 10-15 minutes to the job but it usually comes back three fold.

This is a top notch product that the pros use. I was turned on to it a few years ago by a friend who works for Terminix. I live in the northeast with three kids & a dog, so keeping the ticks out of my yard is important to my family's health. I usually put this down with my spreader & then spray the perimeter of the house & bushes/trees with the concentrate product. Works great & way cheaper than hiring the pros. Thanks for providing great products to those of us willing to do the work ourselves!

Have tried many products to kill fire ants. Using Allstate Xtra was amazing. Simply sprinkle granular over and around ant hill. Within minutes the ants meet their maker.

Very effective product. I have had problem with small ants getting through pool cage screen and floating on pool. Spreading the Talstar around the house, cage and nearby landscape beds has eliminated the problem. I plan to continue using it quarterly.

I've been using Talstar granules for 9 years. Unfortunately, the place where I bought it went out of business this year so I had to choose an on-line source. domyown.com was my random pick and their delivery was very quick... I placed the order on Saturday and received it the following Wednesday. IMO, that's amazing for an out of state order.

This product is definitely effective against fire ants in the yard. I have pest control who treats my house and yard...but, even so, those pesky fire ants tend to pop up from neighboring areas...so I keep these granules on hand to stop them before they get started. I have 3 pups who spend lots of time in the yard and want them to be safe from harm. Thank you!

Spreading using the spreader you need to walk fast otherwise it will pile at one place (I set the spreader settings to two). I only had sprinkle system on for 10 minutes, however at some place the ants hole were still there. I had to manually spread the Granular at each hole and water them. After that it worked flawlessly - no ants hole. It seems that if you treat area individually not using the spreader and water properly it works fine (100% results). With spreader (70%) results.

Easy to order. Free shipping to my door! Simple to apply. Nontoxic to people and pets but deadly to the targeted insect baddies. Perfect! No doubt I'll put in a reorder in a few months.

I bought this product because it had excellent reviews and was supposed to last for months. Not only did it fail to eliminate the ant colonies all over my lawn, but it didn't even make a dent. Absolute waste of time and money. FYI, I thought it was operator error, so I purchased the liquid version afterwards. Same results, completely ineffective. I spent way too much money on these products to have such poor results.

I have used the fine granular insecticide with great results.I did not see that the EXTRA was a coarse granular formula and I am unsure if it will work as well.I wish that the granular size were better identified on the order form.

seems to work on insects but seems not to work on "Carpenter Ants". Tried to follow instruction but the ants are still marching up and down my pine trees in great numbers. Will have to try something else.
