    Q
    Can Talstar be used in a gas powered fogger/sprayer?
    A
    Talstar can be used in a backpack sprayer or a mist blower like the Solo 451 but it cannot be used in any type of fogging equipment. Please take a look at our Fogging Concentrates to see if any of these might be more suited to your application needs.

    Q
    How to get rid of sand gnats for a backyard wedding in June?
    We live in Georgia on the marsh and would like to have a gnat free evening in June for our son's wedding? Have any suggestions?
    A
    Talstar P will offer some control if applied to the trees, bushes and grass a few days before the wedding to lower the gnat population in the area. The morning of the wedding you may want to try to use a pyrethrin based product such as Riptide in a mist blower over the whole area which will kill anything that is flying around and help repel the gnats from the area for several hours.

    Q
    What is the best product for eliminating or at least reducing army cut worms?
    I believe cut worms develop into millers that invade every crack and crevice every spring and most of the summer here in Wyoming.
    A
    Talstar P is one of the most commonly used products to get rid of army worms in lawns. If you need to treat edible vegetation for this pest a spinosad based product would be recommended such as Captain Jacks Deadbug Brew.

    Q
    What are the two tops to the Talstar P bottle for?
    On Talstar P has 2 outlets, how come, what do I do with 2 outlets.
    A
    Most professional pest control products come in a bottle with a built in measuring device.  The top to the left has a measuring reservoir that measures in 1/2 and 1 ounce increments so you can easily mix the product with water.  The right hand side is just a normal top that will allow all of the product to come out.  Most people never open the right hand side though because most people just use an ounce at a time.

    Q
    What is the best product for yellow jackets and hornets?
    I saw my old pest company use Talstar on them but I didn't think that was the most effective product available
    A

    Talstar P (Talstar One) is a wonderful general pesticide. It is labeled to be used on yellow jackets and hornets. You will use 1 fl. oz. per gallon of water. Applications should be done at night when the pests are alight. Spray heavily in areas where they hide and breed. Apply again only if there is new insect activity. This would be an excellent residual product for the yellow jackets and hornets.

    If you know where the nests are and can readily reach them, we would recommend using Wasp-X. This product can be used up to 15 feet away from the nest. This product will foam and cover the nest. It will provide a knockdown and fast kill of hornets and yellow jackets.

    Q
    How close can you use this product to fruit trees and how long must you wait to eat fruit if using on trees?
    I have a problem with Sri Lanka Weevils on my Lemon Meyer tree. I was reading through the Q&A and the same questions kept getting asked about spraying on fruits and vegetables. Well, my tree doesn't have fruit, due to the invasive weevils. So here are my questions. I was wondering how long I have to wait after spraying my tree down to eat from it? If I spray it before I get fruit and then my tree blooms a month later will that fruit be safe? Will it effect other trees nearby and is it in anyway systemic? How far would you suggest spraying Talstar P from my vegetable gardens? Is it safe to do a perimeter spray of my veggie gardens as long as I don't spray the plants? Will Talstar P kill grubs and is it safe to spray on a lawn with fruit trees nearby?
    A
    Since Talstar is not labeled to spray on fruit trees or any other edible vegetation we really cannot offer advice on using the product for this type of application. We do have many products from Fertilome and Hi-Yield on our site that are specifically labeled for the use you have outlined. Talstar is not a systemic and it can be used outside of the dripline for your plants and trees.  Talstar is not labeled for grubs because it binds down to the soil and cannot move far enough below the surface to effect the eggs or grubs. We do have Merit Granules that can be used for grubs in your lawn.

    Q
    What measures do you take to ensure shelf life of Talstar P?
    A question was asked about shelf life of Talstar. The answer was 3-5 years in good conditions. What inventory controls do you use to make sure the products that are shipped are not expired or close to expiring? Do you have a standard age of product that you won't ship to consumers?
    A

    Talstar P is one of the most popular products that we carry and is always in stock. We make sure that the new product we receive and ship out is always the most recent. We do a constant stock rotation to insure we only have fresh stock on our shelf.

    Q
    What is the best application method for Talstar P and NyGuard?
    I have over a acre of property with a lot of grass and foliage. I have a 20v backpack sprayer which takes a while to do yard completely. Can I use a Stihl SR 200 backpack blower/mister? Which would be a more effective method of dispersing?
    A

    Yes, you can disperse Talstar P and NyGuard IGR in a backpack sprayer and/or a mist blower. You will mix 1 oz of Talstar P to 3ml of NyGuard IGR per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft.
