    Talstar on ants

    By Bob on 09/01/2023

    Recommended by a friend. Ordered and distributed on my yard. Did a commendable work on the ants. When i get an opportunity, I will treat the balance of the yard and some places in the pasture. Satisfied with the results. Plan to continue using it in the future.

    Mix with sand before spreading

    By John on 05/11/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I have used this product the past four years. I use it every spring before the fire ants get bad. And every fall just before winter to prevent spiders and all the other critters from coming in my home. This product is very fine like sand so a spreader will disperse it very quickly. I find it much easier to apply this product with a push type spreader. Before I put it in the spreader I mix it 50/50 with some dry sand. And then put my spreader on its lowest setting. ( sand must be dry or it will clump. For best results open the bag a few days before you plan to use it and stir the sand around twice a day)

    The best people, and the product works too...

    By Gary on 06/30/2011

    Verified Purchase

    You deal with faceless people all the time nowadays, we've become used to it. We're used to having our e-mails ignored especially if you have a question or, heaven forbid, a problem. I can tell you that's not something you need to worry about when you are dealing with DoMyOwnPestControl.com. I have been using them for two years and they have never failed to respond to a question or concern. You can always count on DoMyOwnPestControl.com for professional advice on how best to do the job and what products to use. I have saved countless $$$ by taking care of my own pests. When someone asks me, "Who do you use for your pest control?" I tell them, "I do" with the help of DoMyOwnPestControl.com. I recommend them highly. And no, I don't work for them.

    Excellent first purchase and product

    By Blair on 05/13/2015

    Verified Purchase

    While I was already familiar with the Talstar product, I was NOT familiar with DMO Pest Control. After reviewing the website and checking prices I decided to give it a try. Ordering was a snap, the order shipped and arrived promptly, price was great and product exactly what I expected. I will definitely be a return customer and would recommend DMO Pest Control to anyone looking to save a few bucks.

    No More Ants

    By Peter on 12/04/2011

    Verified Purchase

    Since spreading Talstar PL Granules there have been no more ant hills in my yard. Right after I spread it we had a heavy rain and this is when most ant hills showed up before, but this time none. I did have to buy a new spreader because the granules were smaller than I expected, about the size of sand granules. Aside from that it is a great product and will purchase again.

    Talstar PL Granules - They are the best I have used!

    By Jim on 08/07/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I ordered the Talstar PL Granules for the second time from DMO Pest Control and once again they were courteous, very helpful, and best of all they delivered when they said they would. I have used this product for 3 years now and have had no problems with yard pests to include fleas and ticks on my dogs. The people at Do My Own are great. I will continue using their service and highly recommend them to my friends and relatives.

    Talstar - Do Your Own

    By Brad on 02/26/2021

    Product arrived very quickly after ordering all packaged nicely and delivered in perfect condition. Have been using the Talstar granules for 2 years now and it couldn't be easier to be pest free in your yard. The sand-like consistency makes broadcasting easy and the product works itself down to the dirt with a light watering. Will order and use again in late summer. BWag

    Talstar Granules with Ants & Cinch bugs

    By William on 09/21/2010

    A great product to be used in Florida. There is not an ant or cinch bug present in my yard after the treatment. Comparable services from companies like Chem Lawn will cost you up to $120.00 for a product like this. The granules were easy to spread and the smallest package available from this website covered about 1/4 acre lot. I was impressed with product and service.

    It's working

    By Colleen on 09/11/2020

    My exterminator went out of business and when I was searching for a replacement it seemed they all wanted me to sign a lengthy contract. Forget that. I thought I would try laying down this product first. I live the DFW area and have multiple types of ants on our property. I only treated the grass and noticed a big improvement in just the first day. I did a second treatment in the flower beds and around the house and we are pretty much bug free. We have two other properties that treated as well. This stuff is so much better than any of the products I've tried before and more effective than whatever the exterminator was using.

    Used to treat yard for ticks - hope it is working!

    By Robert on 08/24/2012

    Verified Purchase

    All the reviews here seem positive on its effectiveness, so we are hoping for the same. It was difficult to spread as it is too fine for our broadcast spreader. This is addressed, I believe, in the description so we were not totally surprised by that. We had to broadcast it by hand (with gloves, of course) and so it probably did not go on as uniform as it should have. We'll use something easier to spread next Spring. Any other suggestions for yard treatments for ticks?

    Doesn't even give mealy bugs indigestion.

    By Larry on 09/23/2021

    Bought 25 #'s because I was told at Farm and Garden store it will eliminate your mealy bugs. Nowhere does it say how much to put around moss roses, hard to translate from pounds to broadcast on 1000 sq. ft.. I tried a small amount around plant edge and watered it in---nothing. Doubled amount---nothing. Spread it under plant to the root, same. Put it on so thick it covered all the dirt. NOTHING! There phone # Verizon says doesn't exist. Chat line gives you only certain topics. I give up.

    Gets rid of moles

    By Jw on 05/30/2011

    Verified Purchase

    I have to say I was very skeptical of this product as I was trying to get rid of moles in my yard. I thought if I get rid of the moles food the moles will disappear. It worked!!!! I have not had moles in my yard for 6 months now. I did see tracks of where moles were still looking for food for a few weeks after I applied the product but after a while they were gone. I believe this product has allowed for my grass to grow better as there were less bugs in my yard. The only thing I have not been able to control is fire ants however I live in SE Georgia so it is almost impossible to get rid of these!

    I am in control of my Lawn with Talstar PL Granules

    By Raymond on 11/22/2011

    Verified Purchase

    This has been the fourth or fifth time I have purchased Talstar PL. It is a great product. We had an out of control epidemic of earwigs across out front lawn and driveway, and some were entering our home. Mind you up until than we were a bug free home in Florida but something went wrong, our lawn bug exterminator lost control of our lawn. Our friend told us about Talstar and WE applied it and we had a remarkable result happen to our lawn and home but we still continued having these companies do our lawn, a hard habit to break. My husband has now decided to eliminate all services and save thousands of dollars. Now we just have a gentleman with a spreader that does our lawn and there are no problems. I just love your product, what more can I say. If they ever discontinue this product I will put the For Sale sign up immediately. Thank you all.

    Talstar

    By Ethan on 05/23/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I applied the Talstar PL Granules @ 2-3 weeks ago. The ants appeared to have been killed. I am cautious to say this as I am waiting for the real hot summer weather as this is when they become very active. Never the less I have 50 lbs left over so I can apply when I need it. I hope that the ants have left me as I have a very large infestation in my lower yard. Thank you and I will be contacting you soon when I need more Talstar. I have not had to use the liquid yet.  P.S The ordering and the service from you was fantastic. I received my items @ 3 days from when I ordered. The free freight sure is a big bonus!!!
