I had multiple pest problems moving into a new house. I did plenty of research and settled on Talstar (much cheaper here!) but I picked it up at my local Southern States. I treated as recommended and did some inside as there were several issues. Ants, Silverfish, Flies, and centipedes at the least. One coat and they are gone! Its been 4 weeks since I have seen a bug inside. I also treated areas of the lawn that were overrun with ants. Finally, I was cleaning up the hedges and noticed two large hornet nests. Wanting to get them taken care of with out a hardware store trip... I mixed up a batch and soaked the nests (it was dusk). I was shocked to wake up to piles of hornets under each nest, they were stopped dead in their tracks. My home pest control level is novice, sites like these have saved me 100s of dollars.

Talstar P Does The Job!
By Dale on 05/20/2011
For the last two years we have been overrun with Brown Stink Bugs. It was a plague. After doing considerable online searching to find an answer to the problem I discovered Talstar P. It killed the stink bugs quickly and the residual effect continued to kill them as well as spiders and which were also a problem around our house. It also worked well on my roses for killing white flies and aphids. The stink bugs are no longer a problem. The fact that Talstar P is non-staining allowed me to apply it to the exterior of our house without worry. Talstar does what it claims.

Talstar ~ Great product
By Charles on 08/21/2017
Great product. I started using Talstar approximately 12 years ago and have never looked back. I am so pleased with the product. I apply Talstar around my house's outside foundation walls 4 times a year and cannot remember seeing any bugs in my house since the start date. The only thing better than the Talstar product is the DMY staff. They provide great counsel to their customers.

So far, so good
By Zach on 07/25/2014
We have had a serious ant control problem since the day we moved into our house. No matter how much money we paid our pest control service the problem never improved. We got rid of our service a few months after hearing about this website and started our own pest control using Talstar P. I cleared the vegetation from the house and sprayed this product using a pump sprayer. We had ant colonies crawling under our siding from about a dozen places around the house. It's now been about month and there is no visible activity on the outside of the house. I also applied Talstar to our lawn using a hose end dial sprayer and the number of ant colonies in the yard is plummeting. We still have issues inside our home but it's gettig better after application of Talstar as well as an ant kit purchased here as well. Great product!

I have used Talstar for barrier treatment around outside of house for three years. Great product. Upon learning it can be used for lawn and shrub, I bought a Chapin hose sprayer. What a combination. The evening of the first use I saw immediate results. Will be using on a regular basis. Great information provided by your website!

Works very Well
By Bobby on 09/17/2013
Was recommended by a friend
By Spencer on 06/14/2019
Was having a terrible problem with carpenter bees at our cabin in Tennessee. This product was recommended by a contractor working on the house up there I ordered it and sprayed the house asap. It was amazing how well it worked. Almost no bees the next day, just a few checking out the structure but none were boring holes I ordered some more for my home in Fl to help with some other pests. This is supposed to work on almost everything. Heading back to TN in a month or so to check and spray again
So Far So Good

Bought Talstar P to kill bag worms on my arborvitae's and blue spruce's. Although it's too late in the season to really effect the bag worms, I did a quick spray of all evergreens and the foundation of my house. In the next couple days it looked like a bug grave yard around the perimeter of my house! This stuff really does a great job. I also went back and sprayed around my window frames in hopes of killing stink bugs that nest there. In the spring I will spray all my evergreens again when the bag worms start hatching.

DOES NOT WORK ON SPINGTAILS
By Jake on 06/13/2015
Terribly disappointed with this product. From all the raving reviews about how this is the one product that kills most all bugs including springtails, I was confident I had made the right purchase. Well literally 20 minutes after spraying the exterior of my home with the finished solution, the springtails not only came back, they walked right through the solution! 3 hours after spray, it appears that my problem has got even worse! Tons of them all over the house.
Expert response:
Because Talstar P is a residual product, it may take 30 minutes or more to kill individual insects because of the mode of action. Springtails are an extremely prolific pest that can be quite difficult to treat. To fully eradicate them, you will need to identify and eliminate the moisture source that is causing an ideal situation where they can breed. You can read more information on our Springtails page (scroll to the bottom for the article): http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/springtails-c-160.html

Great all-round product
By Brian on 01/29/2021
After a friend of mine recommended Talstar P to me about 10 years ago, I have been impressed ever since. In Florida, there are plenty of bugs and spiders year round. I spray my house attic, eaves, walls, grass, trees, bushes, with this stuff. Occasionally I will spray baseboards inside my house, but rarely need to spray inside. I do this 2 or 3 times a year with my Ortho hose sprayer and have no bugs, and fewer lizards and snakes, because their food chain is diminished. Sometimes I still get sugar ants, but not very often. Highly recommend it. It seems to be the best general purpose insecticide.

Awesome
By Stephen on 09/30/2022
This product is incredible at killing spiders. Had webs all over my house. I mixed 30ml per 1 gallon (1floz). Applied with a weed sprayer application. Waited 2 days and pressure washed my house. The product killed every spider in ever web. Was incredible to see. Re applied after house was dry and have not had a spider return. House is free of webs and insects.

The best that there is for keeping insects out of my house. I spray the perimeter of my house, six feet on the ground and six feet up the walls. Then have no insects in the house for at least a year or two. Also, no spiders. (Spiders eat insects, so there's nothing for them to eat. Spiders go to the neighbor's house where they still have insects.)

Talstar & Spiders
By Dan on 08/07/2012
I live on a lake and have had trouble with spiders since we built the house. I aprayed the house with Talstar and waited a week, then had the house pressure washed to remove all the spider webs, spider droppings, etc. I then sprayed with Talstar again as soon as the house dried. It had been three weeks now and no spiders. My wife thinks it is great. Also, the shipping of the product was exceptionally fast.
This Stuff Works! A++
By Sean on 10/11/2013
I read the reviews on here and I decided to give it a try. This was my first year living in my new house which hasnt been lived in for the past 2 years and some bugs had made homes within it. I had carpenter ants coming in through unknown places and centipedes showing up in the basement. I sprayed this around the outside of the house and around the floor and ceiling of my unfinished basement and with repeating treatments every 3 months I have a bug free house! What's even more unique is that I know family members that work for the company (FMC) that makes this insecticide so you feel kinda proud.

The best when kids and animals are present
By Kerry on 09/28/2012
I have used Talstar Pro (ONE) for 6 years plus and this stuff will kill your roach, spider, ant, stinkbug, silverfish and at least 65 more types of bugs at a 100% kill rate. Use one ounce to one gallon of water and mix. This stuff has totally wiped out a Cockroach problem I had after the new renovation had been done on my house. Outside the house I use a hose-end sprayer to apply around the foundation and sidewalks etc. This application technique will get the poisen deep under the cracks in concrete sidewalks and under wood decks etc. Set the mixture mode on the sprayer so it mixes it at one ounce poison to one gallon water. Inside the house this poison is safe around kids and animals AS LONG AS IT IS USED AS DIRECTED with the instructions that come with the poison container.

Talstar P
By Dianna on 10/25/2016
Excellent insecticide with very low odor. I have used this product for 3 years on my orchids and other house plants before bringing them back into the house from their summer "vacation". In addition, I use it to spray around all the doors and windows to keep bugs from entering the house for winder hibernation.

Talstar P
By Monte on 04/01/2014
I hate bugs and spiders so I purchased the gallon container of Talstar P. It will be more than enough to spray around my house and my neighbors house too. I have not seen a live bug around our house since I sprayed Three weeks ago.

It works
By Gordon on 07/01/2022
Works great!
By Adam on 07/06/2018
We had a lot of spiders getting in the house. I could see lots of them in the grass along the sides of the house outside. Sprayed a three foot swath around the house perimeter outside (and up the walls a few feet). Drastically reduced the number spiders outside and inside as a result. Love this stuff!
