    Q
    What happens when i put too much Talstar P into a gallon of water?
    A

    Mixing too much of an insecticide like Talstar P (Talstar One) is never recommended.  Over-application can make an area more repellent, causing insects to avoid it so that the product cannot do its job.

    Q
    Will Talstar P (Talstar One) kill orb spiders?
    We've just recently had orb spiders...like bee spiders and a necoranae(fuzzy brown spider) on windows and by our ac unit. I want to kill these suckers and anything they will eat. I'm hoping this product will do it.
    A

    Talstar P (Talstar One) is labeled for spiders but not orb spiders in particular. The product should be sprayed in areas where the spiders will come in contact with it. The mixing rate is 1 fl oz per gallon of water.

    Q
    Can Talstar P be mixed with dormant oil and applied simultaneously when temps are below 85?
    A

    Yes, you can mix the two products together. We would recommend mixing a small tank mixture with Talstar P and dormant oil to make sure there is no clumping between the two products.

    Q
    Can I mix a stronger solution of Talstar P?
    I'm renovating a home and have seen a few of those larger roaches (maybe palmetto bugs or American cockroaches?) dead in various places in the home. For the initial application, would it be of any benefit to mix a stronger Talstar P solution, say 1.5 oz to 1 gallon water? Or does a stronger solution not work any better than the recommended 1 oz to 1 gallon? Thanks. Great website!
    A
    Thank you! We do not recommend to mix any higher a dosage than what the products label instructs. This could cause a resistance issue down the road if the product is over applied. We recommend mixing Talstar P at a rate of 1fl oz per one gallon of water.
