    Q
    Will Talstar help to stop TPPD (Texas Phoenix Palm Decline)?
    Palm trees are dying in Florida from TPPD. Will Talstar help to stop the insect? At present our palm is fine and I was wondering if ground application around the base would help deter the insect without harming the palm.

    Talstar P is not labeled to treat TPPD. We recommend that you consult with your local cooperative extension office for recommendations on what would be appropriate to apply.  You can also find a great article here that might help.

    Q
    What is the best product for mosquito control?
    I use a power backpack sprayer/mister.
    A

    Talstar works great for mosquito control and it can be used in your mister. The key is to apply it to all shrubs, trees, and other foliage around the house or where you are trying to provide relief.  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 during the heat of the day.  Talstar should be applied every 30 days for optimum control.

    Q
    Does Talstar P work on maggots?
    A

    Talstar P (Talstar One)  is not directly labeled for maggots for the common house fly, but it would help with the maggot control as it would cause the fly population to decrease rapidly. It should be mixed at 0.5 to 1.0 oz. per gallon of water and applied on the exterior of the home focusing around windows, doors, areas of direct sunlight and where you notice the flies congregating. Using a fly bait trap such as the Flies Be Gone Trap to draw the flies away from the home is also recommended.

    Q
    How high into trees should you spray Talstar P for mosquito control? Thanks.
    A

    When using Talstar P for mosquito control, it’s best if you can treat the underside of the tree leaves as high up as possible.  The more surface you’re able to treat, the more effective your treatments will be.

    Q
    Does Talstar P work on stink bugs and Asian beetles?
    A

     

    Talstar P will kill stinkbugs. You should dilute one ounce of Talstar P per gallon of water. You will use a hand pump sprayer to apply the solution on all door frames, window frames, areas where utilities (cables, pipes, wires) enter into the structure, a band of soil 6 to 10 feet adjacent to the structure, also to a height of 2 to 3 feet on the foundation where pests may be active or may find entrance. As the stink bugs crawl over the treated area, they will receive a lethal does of the insecticide and usually die within a few hours. You should treat every month starting in August and ending in November for best results. It is also labeled for Asian beetles aka lady beetles and should do a good job.

    Q
    Which product can be used against gnats?
    A

    You can help prevent gnats from entering you home by spraying a barrier application of a product like TalstarTempoDemand, or Suspend, paying special attention to window frames, window screens, door frames, and cracks and crevices that may be used as points of entry.  A screen with a very fine mesh (smaller than 16mesh) will help prevent entry. Additionally it may be helpful to keep ceiling fans and window fans on at high speeds to keep insects out of small areas. You may want to look over our article on Getting Rid of Gnats for more information.  

    If gnats have already entered your home and you need immediate control use MicrocareP.I. AerosolCy-Kick Aerosol or EcoPco ACU. These products offer fast knockdown and kill of flying insects giving you immediate relief.

    Q
    Can Taurus SC and Talstar P be used in the same areas?
    I used Taurus SC for termite prevention. I trenched my home with it. But I'm planning on using Talstar P for mosquito and insect control. Can I spray my outside home with Talstar even though I trenched it using Taurus SC? Will it cause the trench to not be as effective if both are used in the same areas?
    A

    Talstar P Professional Insecticide can be used as a spray for general pests over the trench as the termites would not be affected by it since they are below the soil.  It will have no effect on the treated soil. We have a great guide for treating mosquitoes here.
