    Q
    Is there something that will get rid of grasshoppers but not hurt my cats?
    Have 2 cats who love to play in the yard, roll in the dirt, sleep in the flower beds, under the trees, hide in the bushes... The grasshoppers are killing most of my plants and shrubs. I welcome your guidance. Please and thank you
    A
    Talstar P would be a good choice for grasshopper control. You should start applications before the grasshoppers have a chance to hatch for best control. You should thoroughly spray your lawn and water in the application with about a .25 in of water to help the product get past the thatch layer and into the soil where grass hoppers actually develop. If you already have grasshoppers you can use Talstar P at the highest usage rate of 1 oz of product per 1 gallon of water for the quickest knockdown. Use sufficient amounts of water to help the product get to the soil layers. Once the Talstar has dried it will be completely safe for the cats to resume their normal activity in the areas that have been treated.

    Q
    How to use Talstar P on potted plants indoors?
    A

    Talstar P (Talstar One) is diluted with water and then poured onto the soil and sprayed onto the plant itself. We recommend starting with letting the soil dry out between watering as this offers the fastest control in most cases. Please provide the targeted pest for additional tips on treatment.

    Q
    Can I spray Talstar P on vegetable foliage e.g. tomatoes and Okra or on fruit trees such as citrus to eliminate ants and other bugs?
    A

    Talstar P cannot be used on anything edible, fruits or vegetables.  We do however have many products that are labeled for gardens and fruit bearing trees.  One of our most popular is our Malathion 55% Spray.

    Q
    Would over saturation of Talstar P kill my flowers?
    A

    Over-spraying of Talstar P (Talstar One) should not harm most flowers. It is always best to apply in the cooler times of the day. You should also avoid spraying the flowers directly to have the least impact on beneficial pollinators in the area.

    Q
    Best option for Mosquito on acreage with tow sprayer
    I have a double lot with mowed grass and ditch. Total area to spray is 2.5 acres aprox. I use a 15 gallon spryaer to apply chemical but have bad mosquito problem. I have been looking at the Talstar but alot of people say use malthion. Which works better and will have longer effect? Also, is switching to a mister a realistic option for such a large area?
    A
    The pull behind, would still be that best option  for the coverage you need. Talstar mixed with Nyguard and water would be the most effective on the mosquito and flying insect problem. As long as there are no edibles in the area.

    Q
    Will Talstar harm reptiles?
    A
    As long as the reptiles are out of the area while you are doing the actual application of the Talstar, it shouldn't effect them. You will most likely see a reduction in the reptile populations on your property though as you will be eliminating their food source (insects).

    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.

    Q
    Is Talstar safe around my orchids when I spray?
    A
    Talstar P is safe for use on most plants. Having said that we still recommend you test the product on just one or two plants before using it on all of the plants to test for damage as some plants can be more sensitive than others.
