I bought a house in Arlington Virginia last January and I can't enjoy a minute outside because of mosquitoes. After checking in YouTube and find Talstar P. I went to do my own pets control and order it. They deliver it rapidly. I followed the instructions and I sprayed my back and front yard believe me I have no more mosquitoes problems. I will recommend talstar P to everyone.

We have used this product for 15 years. We spray around the base of our house once/month and very, very rarely do we see a crawling insect inside the home. We also use it to spray red ant hills in our yard. It is very effective in killing the entire colony and DOES NOT kill the surrounding grass. Have recommended this product to many of our friends.

I've been using this product for the last 9 months with awesome results ever since the first spray. I live in southwest Florida and my house is in a heavily wooded subdivision so we had a lot of spiders getting in our pool area. We also had lots of fire ants on the property. After the first application everything disappeared. I do follow up sprays every 3 months and it's working great.

After much research I found Talstar to be the best of both worlds - it is a safe product to use around indoor pets and outdoor wildlife and is amazing at keeping all sorts of bugs out of your house. It also is great on getting rid of fire ants. Do My Own Pest Control ships so quickly and I reccomend it to all my friends as the one place to take care of all your yard pests needs.

This stuff is great! Been using talstar for two years and sitting outside without having to swat mosquitos all summer is really enjoyable. We live in the woods in MN where the mosquitos are the state bird. A visit with the neighbors let's me know how good this stuff is as they swarm on you at their house. The price is great for the results compared to having the pros do it. Spray once a month and enjoy the summer.

I live in South Florida and had a problem with every bug known to man. We had black and red millipedes, large and small ants, roaches, etc... Our swimming pool would fill with tiny dead ants every night. After spraying both inside and outside the house everything started dying. The millipedes have completely disappeared and my wife was sweeping up thousands of tiny dead ants for days after the spraying. Great stuff for a very difficult environment!

We're having the stink bug infestation, here in Maryland, and Google researching turned up Talstar P and DoMyOwnPestControl.com. I sprayed around the outside perimeter of my house, around windows and doors, and various spots in my basement. Within 2 days I noticed, not just the stink bugs dying, but also various other creepy crawlers in my basement dead in their tracks. I highly recommend this treatment. I will continue treatment after the weather gets warm again next spring.

This is the second year that I have used this product. And I cant say enough good things about it. My house is a 100 yr old rock cottage with a lot of hiding places for bugs. This is the first product of this kind that has done an great job of taking care of these varmits. I also use it in the tack room at the barn and it is amazing the spiders and wasps it kills and keeps away.

Friends had told us of this product, so we ordered it & tried it ourselves. WOW! Overnight, magic! Dead spiders outside everywhere. We have problems with spiders webs also on the house & in some trees - GONE! We are in the process of spraying the attic & cabinets inside. We have all the confidence that no more bugs will be around here. Love this product & some other friends are getting it now too. Great product, easy to use & good price!

Been using Talstar P now for three years and I have found nothing on the market to compare it kills the bugs and the mosquitoes as I live in the country with a ravine right behind the house. To keep it short and simple it's the best stuff I have ever used! (I use a pull behind sprayer and last time put down 17 gallons)

I HAD a stink bug problem and there is almost nothing that will kill the darned things. I stumbled onto DoMyOwn and Talstar. Service was great, got the spray fast. I have a fan in my hot water heater vent that was getting clogged with Stink bugs. I sprayed the whole house and shed exterior. 2 days later they were gone. It doesn't kill on contact but it does GET'EM.

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.

Our beautiful spruce trees were being invaded by bag worms. Our trees are approximately 15-20 feet tall and were slowly dying because of these worms. They form little cone shaped bags from which they hang down from the tree branches and slowly eat the needles. The bags look like little pine cones so you really don't notice them unless you're looking for them. The branch ends up dying. We were panicked because our trees took years to get where they are today and these worms were killing them. Talstar worked great! My husband sprayed the trees once and within a few days the worms dried up inside their little bags and were falling off the trees. He plans on spraying again to make sure they've all been taken care of.

Overall, a great product. Safe to use. No unpleasant odor. Great for Florida lawns, especially St. Augustine grass subject to chinch bugs and sod webworms when the weather turns hot, and several times during the summer. And, it is even safe enough to use indoors in my house to eliminate roaches and ants. Residual lasts for several months. I also used it to wipe out giant spiders in an infested aircraft hangar.

I have professional pest control, but I wanted something to supplement their service. I'm usually not home when they stop by, so they can't spray inside. I have to deal with black widows where I live, and I noticed a general uptick in spider activity inside the house. I followed directions and now they're dead. Anything else that pops up dies quickly. Couldn't be happier.

Becoming the "Exterminator" couldn't be easier thanks to the Do My Own insecticide. The water to solution ratio is clearly explained in the user guide and the bottle also has nifty built-in solution measuring guide. I haven't seen a bug around my house (That's if you don't count the dead ones haha) since I have sprayed. Hands down, the most economical and effective insecticide out there.

Had a problem with ants getting into our new double wide mobile home. Daughter in Louisiana told us about Talstar. Ordered it. Received it in about four days. Used it according to directions around and under the house. We no longer are bothered with ants. Love this product and the service is outstanding. Will be doing more business with this company in the near future.

This product does exactly what I wanted. I needed something to use around the house that wipes out a broad spectrum of pests, but I also wanted something I could use in my Solo blower for mosquitos. This it the stuff. I add some Demand CS to it for spraying around the perimeter and use it alone in the sprayer. Creepy crawly critters don't have a chance this year.

Used it for white footed ants..did not work had to call a professional. It may be good for outside around the house perimeter and on the grass or bushes.The site indicates it is good for these ants but the professional says they do not use it for that but they use it for other ants. I wish the label was more specific.But it is a good product inspite of not working for me

Used Talstar P for the first time about two days after I received the bottle. Easy to mix, directions are straight forward. Used my Chapin back pack sprayer.......easy to apply as directed. Within 48 hours, noticed dead bugs around the sites I sprayed......concentration of bugs around the house almost non exhistant after two weeks. The bottle should last me at least two years. A lot of bang for the buck!!!!!!

I live in Florida and have used Talstar P for over 5 years. It is a wonderful product because it doesn't stain, doesn't smell and it is very effective at killing ants and other insects. Also, it will not gum up your sprayer nozzle! I use it once per month as a house outside perimeter guard and use it every time I camp. It is also good to control mosquitos and white fly on shrubs.

This product works great!! I paid a pest company for a year straight and the realized that he was writing the product that he used on the invoice. So I just ordered this product because that's what he was using and now I can treat my house all year long for way less than I was paying for 1 application!! Product works just as described and the shipping is super fast !! A+++. I am a customer for life!!

Someone sprayed this for me a few years back when they were house sitting. I saw about five roaches in six months and those I did see were “high”. Same person made a mixture for me. It killed on contact but did not keep them away. I bought some thinking maybe he mixed it wrong. They're not even dying on contact now. It takes awhile for the insecticide to affect them. Maybe they've gotten use to it?

Too soon to tell about length of active bug rejection. However, I have not seen a roach in a week. Also applied to lawn for sod webworms. Haven't seen any of their babies, those small gray moths in about the same time. Sprayed all around exterior of house and shop about a foot out creating a shield all around. Seems like it's working good. Update in about 2 weeks.

We bought the Talstar P Professional Insecticide about a month ago and have sprayed the entire house, inside and out, and haven't seen a bug since!!! The only bugs that we really had were spiders in the bathroom but since spraying we haven't even seen a spider!!! This spray is odorless, doesn't stain, and obviously works great!!! Can't believe that we paid professionals for years when we could have sprayed ourselves!!! Thank you domyown.com!!! We will definitely be buying more!!!

Tried Talstar P for the first time and saw a very noticeable decrease in the mosquito population around our house. I sprayed the perimeter and found a few nests. We have had a more than average amount of rain lately and still I have not seen very many. Easy to use, and has been very effective. We live in Houston, by the way, where the 'skeeter's are known to carry away small children.

This product works for just about all pest. I apply it around the base of my foundation and in all my shrubs and flower beds with a Stihl blower/sprayer. I even spray it in my lawn forming a barrier to my house. This products kills fleas, ticks, ants, spiders, roaches and most importantly mosquitoes. I apply it about every 5 weeks and my yard stays mosquito free.

I purchased Talstar P from this web site last year and received for outstanding customer service and very quick delivery. For a number of years we have been unable to sit outside in the summer because of a mosquito problem. We have tried a number of products bought at the local home improvement center which worked for only a short while and spottily. We bought the Talstar P and backpack sprayer after finding out that a couple of local pesticide companies use it for mosquito control ( and charge $500-600 for 3 monthly applications)! I just received a shipment of this years product and plan for another mosquito free summer. We have been ecstatically happy with the results we have had with the Talstar P, were able to sit outside all summer long with NO mosquitos. I would highly recommend it.

i am undecided. Apparently this is the checmical that ORkin uses on their monthly mosquito plan. The orkin guy showed me what they use. it worked until it rained. Then I have to respray. its supposed to last a month with or without rain as long as its applied and allowed to dry.. which it was. after the rain we all got ate up by mosquitos. had to reapply. used the entire bottle in less than a week of rain. Should have lasted several months according the the application insitructions. I wonder how orkin makes money on the monthly program when it doesn't even work. they must be giving refunds like crazy or making a bundle on re-applications. when applied during a dry spell it works wonders but not ideal if you live where it rains every few days or in my case, every day.
