    Q
    Talstar P should be stored in a cool dry place. Keep away from extreme temperatures.
    I live in Northern Virginia. Define extreme temperatures. Once and awhile, we do get below freezing for a few days stretch, and in the Summer we do get above 90 degrees for several days at a time.
    A

    Storing Talstar P Professional Insecticide in a room temperature enviroment (between 45 and 75 degrees) would give you the best shelf life. If you are storing it outside in a shed when there is freezing temps & the product were to freeze, it would need to be disposed of

    Q
    Will Talstar P Professional Insecticide kill Lady bugs?
    Will this product kill lady bugs? If not which products will kill lady bugs and stink bugs in Illinois?
    A

    Yes, Talstar P is labeled for stink bugs and lady bugs. The mixing ratio is 1 fl. oz. per gallon of water. This will be used to spray around baseboards, cracks and crevices to help kill those that contact a treated area.

    The Overwintering Kit is an excellent combination of products that protects you during your winter months with an insecticide and a dust. We generally do recommend at least using a dust with any other product, such as Talstar P, that you are using as an added protection to consider using throughout the year.

    Q
    Can you treat in the rain or when it’s sprinkling with Talstar P Professional Insecticide?
    When it’s sprinkling outside or raining I would like to know if this product can be used.
    A

    When applying Talstar or most other insecticides, it is best applied during dry weather and you want to make sure the product has at least 6 hours of full dry time prior to rain or watering to ensure it is completely rainfast though 24 hours is best.  At the highest rate it has a residual up to 30 days.

    Q
    Crape Myrtle Bark Scale using Talstar P Professional Insecticide
    Can this kill the insects that cause Crape Myrtle Bark Scale on my crepe Myrtle’s? Do I spray directly on the bark?
    A

    Yes, Talstar P Professional Insecticide is labeled for scale. You mix it at .5 per gallon & spray directly on the tree trunk as well as the foliage and stems. You may also consider doing a drench around with the base with Dominion 2L Termiticide before they are active for prevention.

    Q
    Sprayed my yard and around peach tree with Talstar P Professional Insecticide
    My peach tree is about 5 to 8 years old. I believe it has some moth in it. It produces the sweetest juseist peaches the last 2 years I had to toss most of them because the fruit has small holes and a jelly like ozzie leaking out of them. I sprayed 2 weeks ago when can I spray again. The peaches are on the tree now and I'm seeing the same things on them. If you have a different idea for me I would be happy to read it.
    A

    Talstar P is not labeled to treat any edible vegetation, so it should NOT be sprayed on the fruit, the tree, the soil around the tree, or the root zone. The manufacturer does recommend that you discard any fruit from the tree for this growing season if the tree was sprayed with Talstar P. 
     
    We would recommend that you use Monterey Fruit Tree and Vegetable Systemic Soil Drench in the future because it is labeled for fruit trees. Please see the product label for additional information.

  • Asked by Merwin from Florida

    Q
    We are looking for a product that will kill fire ants in Florida and still be horse friendly we have about 7
    acres to be treated how much do i need?
    A
    Extinguish Plus is actually the product of choice in areas where horses may be kept or will be grazing (as long as the horses will not be used for feed or food). Extinguish Plus combines the power of hydramethylnon with an insect growth regulator (IGR) to kill fire ant workers and prevent queens from laying fertile eggs. The result is complete fire ant colony control. Extinguish Plus Fire Ant Bait is best used in the spring or early fall, or whenever fire ants are active. The ants will feed off Extinguish Plus and spread the bait throughout the entire colony, halting the infestation within weeks. You will need about 2 lbs per acre and you can purchase it in a 25 lb bag. Talstar cannot be used on areas where animlas will graze.

    When can i drive the car after spray? Safe for human when car is small,windows closed and air-cond on?
    A
    No. Talstar should not be applied to any seats or furniture. You should instead use a product such as Sterifab. Sterifab is safe to use on areas where you will come into skin contact such as a car seat.

    Q
    Which to use first Termidor SC or Talstar P on my newly constructed home and barrier?
    I am considering using both Termador SC (because I had such great results with it in the past) as a protective barrier on my home. I also want to do a barrier with Talstar P because of all the other pests (mosquitos, roaches, stink bugs) that it treats. Which should I product use first? Should I wait a period of time before applying the other product? Will the products work adversely or well with each other? Thanks

    Are you trying to use the Termidor as a Termite barrier?

  • Asked by James from Stuart, Florida
    04/15/2013
    Q
    Will Talstar P control hoosehold casebearers (Phereoeca uterella)?
    A
    When the larva or the moths make contact with areas that have been treated with Talstar P or Demand CS they will be killed by the dry residual. They must contact the treated area for any products to work. Typically a crack and crevice application of either product, lots of cleaning under furniture, appliances and under cabinets and lots of vacuuming will help eliminate these pests. Any wool items should be examined for damage and cleaned if needed.

    Q
    Can you spray trees in the early spring that have caterpillars in them?
    Would you be able to make a dilution to be used in a pressure washer to reach high trees?
    A
    You can start spraying when the caterpillars are young for best results. We recommend using the 1 fl oz of Talstar P per gallon of water ratio for the fastest knockdown and the longest lasting residual. As for using it in the pressure washer, we really cannot give any advice on that type of application as most insecticide (if not all) are not labeled for use in pressure washer.
