Customer Reviews for Talstar P Professional Insecticide

This stuff is AMAZING... Long story but I had to fire my "pro" pest control company, and I started doing it myself. I orderd the Talstar P and made one application around my home just one month after the "pro's" had spayed (with no results). Two days later I was out in the yard and started to notice how many dead bugs there were! This stuff works GREAT and I haven't seen another bug in the house (it's been a little over a week so far). The cost is right also, I'm able to spray my house monthly now and for WAY less money!

One of the units in my 12 unit condo is infested with cockroaches which migrated to me! I found this company online and decided to give Telstar P a go, in hopes to save on exterminator costs. I have high hopes this chases those dirty buggers out of my space. Have not used it long enough to know yet It seams to leave a white film behind, so trying to be very careful to spray right a long the baseboards. I’m counting on it being safe for my elderly dogs.

The past two years, I tried several different products from Home Depot with varying disappointing results. My brother suggested this product, Talstar P. I copied the website and thought why not. his has been an unusually we Summer in NC, ants everywhere. We came home to an infested pantry. I did my entire house as directed three weeks ago using Talstar, and have to admit the stuff works, and works well. I have not seen a single ant, bug, etc. in my house since. Best of all there was no odor. Good stuff. Highly recommend.

I've been using Talstar P for over 3 years, it's the best stuff I have found yet! I spray inside and around my out buildings and my house about every 3 months and it keeps my house and buildings bug free! It also takes care of the stink bug invasion every fall...sheesh they are pests! Do My Own is the cheapest place I've found this stuff and they are super fast with shipping! Been a pleased customer here for over 2 years and will remain one!

THIS WORKS ON STINKBUGS. We have thousands of stinkbugs on our entire house and in the attic. Talstar Pro was recommended to us by a friend. At first I didn't think it would work because it didn't kill on contact. We sprayed yesterday and this morning there are dead stinkbugs everywhere. It just takes a little time to kill them, and even killed those that came later. We ordered the product because it was advertised as environmentally safe outside and in the house. THANK YOU! I am recommending this to all my friends who have this same problem here in Maryland.

Where do I begin...My old house had many issues with moisture, leaking windows, leaking pipes, and a leaking roof. So it was pretty much a paradise for Springtails, although I didn't see them much, other than in the windows. Page forward, we move to a brand new community, & house. We had been here almost two years, and so far so good, I hadn't seen any of these horrid little pest. But then I go out to our garage to break down some boxes, that had been there unopened for two years...And guess what, unbeknownst to me the boxes had Springtails, & I tracked them into my new house! Oh the horror... It took me a lot of research on the net to find out about Springtails, which led me to "DoMyOwnPestControl." One thing I can tell anyone is, don't waste your money buying over the counter bug sprays for Springtails, you need something with pyrethrin in it. Talstar P is what the professionals use, and it works! Heads-up...With an Springtail infestation it might take 1 to 3 sprayings, but you will eventually see results. The folks also at DMOPC are very helpful at assisting you for advise. One Customer Service Rep. keep insisting, that the problem with the Springtails was coming from somewhere, and that I needed to find out where. I keep telling the Customer Service Rep. that we had brought them from my old house, and this was a new house, so we had no moisture problems...Well low & behold! These little buggers were right at my front door in the mulch, in a Moss like plant that the builder put in. We removed these plants, and also used Bifen to rid us of anymore infestations...Yay!!! TY, so much DoMyOwnPestControl!

I purchased this product because it was a promotion from the Clark Howard web site. My wife and I were having our annual ant invasion through-out our house. We have used many products in the past with minimal results. I applied the Talstar P Professional product as recommended and the results were almost immediate. In addition to treating the area having the most ants I also treated the outside of our house and storage shed. And like my review title says "ants no more"!

I ordered this product after becoming disillusioned with my local pest control service. The "professionals" were charging me $75 every three months. I spent less than that on the Talstar P and a nice backpack sprayer and have enough product to treat my property for over a year. Plus I can use the sprayer for other applications around the house. Two days after applying the Talstar P I had more dead bugs around the perimeter of my house than I have ever seen! The product cost per application is less than five dollars and took me twenty minutes... it only makes sense to DoMyOwnPestControl!

We were overrun with palmetto bugs (a.k.a. cockroaches). They were in the garage and then in the house. We followed your online video directions and applied Ortho Home Defense on the floors around the perimeter of the kitchen, bathrooms and in the garage where we had seen the bugs. We applied Talstar outdoors around the perimeter of the house as directed in the video. The results were immediate. We are completely pleased with your online information about how to safely use the products and the results.

I love this stuff! Spraying a few time each year inside and out keeps the bugs out of and away from the house. We live in the county. Plenty of bugs out here! I spray under eaves , around the windows/doors and on the ground at the foundation. No more Wasp nests or Spider webs, no invasion of Japanese Beetles or Stinkbugs like we've had in the past. No bugs in the house at all! It's wonderful. All that and a great price! If you divide out the cost per application, it's only a buck or two! Shoot, that's darn near FREE in today's world! Good stuff!

We ordered the product for fire ant control, sprayed the perimeter of the house to stop fire ants from coming in with great results. Problem was once the perimeter was sprayed the ants could not get past it to get out of the house and they started showing up inside. Sprayed the nooks and crannys inside and problem seems solved so far. Very happy with results and will reorder again because the delivery came about 3 days after ordering. Thank you "Do My Own Pest Control".

I live in Minnesota, and this summer has been the worst! We have had lots of rain and hot weather making it ideal for mosquitoes. We have a back yard pool that we could not even get close to. The bugs would just drive you back into the house. We used every kind of sprinkle and hose spray that we could get at the local farm supply. I found out about Talstar from a groundskeeper in my area. I mixed it in my sprayer and sprayed the entire three aches of my yard. Within one day we could sit outside and enjoy our home in the country. It has been working for three weeks and I have not had to reapply. Don’t let the price drive you away. It takes very little to cover a lot of area. Best thing I have found to use for mosquito control.

I used both the mound drenching (with a 2 gal. tank sprayer) followed up with a hose sprayer treatment of the yard. I had a driveway infestation you would not believe and ants under the slab of a 12' x 22' shed. It has only been several weeks since treatment, but so far, so good!  A lot cheaper than having it done. Last year, I had the shed "treated" for $125.00! I did this and the entire house and yard and still have more then 1/2 gal. of Talstar One left. I thought, for the price, it was worth a try. At this point, I am happy with the result. I live in central FL, ants love this place!

This is my second purchase of this product. I have rental houses that I spray on a regular basis. I have never had an insect problem since I started using this product. It has solved my problem, even black widow spiders. once in a while I see a dead bug lying on it's back but no live ones. This is the best and most economical spray I have ever used. Reasonable price and fast delivery direct to my door. I will continue to use and recommend this company and product.

With consistent use we have made it through the summer with no ants in the kitchen. This is a huge victory. We have had ants for years. We sprayed the product around the outside foundation of our house a couple times this summer. No ants and also no spiders in the garage. Great product!

Sprayed Talstar P around the perimeter of my yard, house. Sprayed under my deck along with trees. It worked to reduce the amount of gnats and mosquitoes. I was able to walk around outside without being swarmed. It says it last up to a month, I would say about two weeks. I’ll take that with the amount of bugs this summer.

Excellent product, low odor. Could not even walk from the house to my car or back & would just be eaten by mosquitoes. Also killed fleas. Sprayed it in evening so as not to kill any bees & my bees are still happy & no mosquitoes.

I usually call an exterminator who charges us between $150 and $200 to spray our house and detached garage for stink bugs. Talstar doesn't kill them on contact but next day. They were dead and seen less . I treated weekly x 2 . You need a sprayer and follow directions.

We bought this for my daughters apartment. She had bed bugs and ants and the apartment exterminator couldn't get rid of them. Well no more bugs after 2 treatments 2 weeks apart NOT A BUG IN SIGHT OF ANY KIND!!! I decided to use some around our house for ants and they were all dead in 24 hours!

I was first exposed to using a product similar to this product because of ingredients. I haven't yet actually used this product due to time of year. It will get used next spring on the lawn. However using another product with same main ingredient, I sprayed around the house because of stink bugs. It made an overwhelming difference. Definitely recommend.

I sprayed outside around the house and inside my garage twice in 2 weeks. I don't see any spriders anymore, and a lot of flies died everyday by the windows. I'm every happy with the product and referred to all my friends.

This is the second purchase of this insecticide. It has performed extremely well, with my using it both inside and outside the house. Despite being so effective, it has no scent at all, a big factor. With 1 oz/gallon, you can not beat the priced! I heartily recommend it.

Spayed flower beds and around the house and some grassy areas the day before it rained and it really worked as we had a severe mosquitoe problem . I have not found any even the day it rained and now it is over a week and still no irritating mosquitoes so I will keep this product around to use whenever they invade our property.

So happy to say this insecticide WORKS !! I had an infestation in certain areas of my house and after one application of Talstar in the areas, pest-free. Just have to keep areas clean. Thank You for your product. Also, the shipping was very quick. I will definitely buy from this company again.

This is an excellent product. It kills all insects and if I ever see one.....it is dead. I first started using this product for control of Roaches on the porches and in my well house, and storage buildings outside. My son-in-law borrowed some one day to treat ant beds. Now he is regularly using this product.

I had a metal building shop. I had a problem with house spiders and eggs. I mixed this in a gallon sprayer on Thursday evening. On Friday evening, I could not find a live spider. It is good stuff. I plan on trying it on other pests.

I had a major infestation of brown dog ticks in my yard which worked it's way into the house. I had tried many other products with little to no success. With Talstar One I saw major reduction after 24 hours and with a second application a week later my problem is gone. It is a great product.

My sofits and windows were covered with those annoying stink bugs. Used Talstar P over 3 weeks ago. When I started spraying around siding edges and trim under sofits on my house, the bugs started crawling out from all corners and began falling to their deaths. Have not seen one since. Fantastic product to eliminate stink bugs.

I've been using Talstar P for years now. I use it about every 2 to 2.5 months and I have no centipedes, ants, spiders or any other crawly things in my house. It is safe around pets once it's dry so my dogs have not been affected negatively at all. This is a great product! ?? ????????
