    Q
    Is 4 oz of Talstar P Professional Insecticide to 4 gallons of water a good mix rate for outdoor fleas?
    A

    The label advised not to exceed one ounce per one gallon of water. Talstar P is long lasting and generally does not need to be applied more than once every few months. It can be be reapplied once every 7 days at the low rate of 0.25 oz. After your first application if you are still seeing a heavy infestation you can reapply another application.
    Please refer to product label for correct instructions. If your mixing rate is not per label instructions it may become ineffective.

    Q
    Can Talstar P be used with an IGR?
    Wooded 5 acre lawn surrounded by cattle ranch. Ticks and fleas major issue. Have both dogs and cats who roam - ie bring the beasties home. Animals treated heavily, what to do for yard? need good residual and rain resistance.
    A
    Talstar P can be applied with an IGR (insect growth regulator). It is safe for pets as long as they remain out of the area during treatment and return only when the surfaces have dried completely. It should not be applied where there are grazing animals such as cattle. It is labeled for ticks and fleas outside and offers a 30 day outdoor residual.
    For best results, allow 24 hours after outdoor application before expected rainfall.

    Q
    I am spraying my backyard to kill fleas, and I live in humid region. I am concerned about Talstar drying.
    I have several dogs, and I a want to spray in the evening when they are inside, however I am concerned about the humidity not allowing the spray to dry before morning. I also wanted to know if the morning condesation will be an issue? Is the morning or the afternoon better for a humid climate?
    A
    Talstar P is a water based product that dries just as fast as water alone would dry.  Spraying in the afternoon would be best to allow the product to dry better.  The morning condesation should not be an issue as once Talstar dries it will stay on the surface pretty well.  You would apply once a month keeping pets out of the area.

    Q
    Is Talstar P good for brown dog ticks?
    Does this product work well for brown dog tick infestations inside and outside? How often should it be applied?
    A

    Talstar P is labeled for ticks, however we would recommend you use our Outdoor/Indoor Flea and Tick Kit for the issue that you are asking about. This kit would include everything that is needed to treat both indoors and outdoors for a ticks infestation. 

    Please see out Treatment Guide for more information on how to get rid of ticks.

    Q
    When can I apply Talstar P for mosquitoes?
    I sprayed CY Kick CS & Nyguard yesterday for ants, ticks, fleas, and spiders. Can I apply Talstar P for mosquitoes? Is there one product that would address all of these effectively?
    A
    Both Cykick and Talstar will kill most common pest including Mosquitoes. The biggest difference is that Cykick is Microencapsulated and may take longer to kill the pest, Talstar will kill more quickly.
