    Q
    Does Talstar P kill spiders?
    A
    Talstar will kill spiders.  However, it is not a contact kill product....it is made more for longevity and having a long residual.  It will work much faster when a spider is present when you are spraying and you spray directly on the spider.  It will still not die immediately, but rather quickly. Once the spray dries, if a spider walks over it at a later time, it will pick up the dried Talstar on its body, but it will take much longer to kill it.  It can take hours to a day or so for it to finally kill the spider, depending on the size of the spider.  Most all residual insecticides will work this way

    What is a good general indoor and yard granual pest control?
    Currently I have purchased and use Demon WP for outdoor application around the house but I also want to find a good general indoor pest control and a general outdoor granule for use as backyard grass application so my kids don't get bit up. We don't have any pest issues now but I just canceled my yearly pest control to do it my self as it was getting pricy to pay every 3 months. Can you suggest anything. Thank you

    Q
    Is Talstar safe to spray around the chicken's coop or other pets?
    A

    Talstar P is labeled to be used in poultry houses and chicken coups as long as you follow the instructions on the product label. You must make sure your chickens are out of the area while you apply Talstar P and then they can return to the area as soon as the area has completely dried. This product can be used in other areas where pets may go as long as they are out of the area while the application is being made. Once the treated areas are completely dry, then it is safe to resume normal activity.

    Q
    Which Talstar product is best for perimeter control/outdoor application for Mosquitoes? I live in Mn.
    A

    Talstar P Professional Insecticide is our most popular selling product for mosquito control.  It is a liquid concentrate that you mix with water and apply using a one gallon hand pump sprayer.  The key is to apply it to all shrubs, trees, and other foliage around the house or patio you are trying to provide relief at.  It should be directed not only on top of the leaves and plants, but on the underside of the leaves as well which is where the mosquitoes hang out.  It should be applied every 30 days for optimum control.  Best of all it will not harm any birds in the area.

    Q
    I intend to use Talastar P liquid in my yard for chinch bugs. Does it require watering in?
    A

    According to the Talstar P (Talstar One) product label: Chinch Bugs infest the base of grass plants and are often found in the thatch layer. Irrigation of the grass area before treatment will optimize the penetration of the insecticide to the area where the chinch bugs are located. Use higher volume applications if the thatch layer is excessive or if a relatively long mowing height is being maintained. Chinch Bugs can be one of the most difficult pests to control in grasses and the higher application rates (Up to 1 fluid oz. per 1000 square feet) may be required to control populations that contain both nymphs and adults during the middle of the summer.
