Customer Reviews for Talstar P Professional Insecticide

I have used this product 3 years now. I have very few bugs in our house or garage, just 2 or 3 spiders a year. This also helped me with wasps nesting in our overhangs of the front and back porches. I spray (April, July, Sept.) a ground perimeter around the whole house and then go around the ceilings of our porches for the wasps. Easy application with any hardware store sprayer. Great product, and I save big bucks not using the 'professionals'

I sprayed Tsaltar P around the perimeter of our house and now find bugs who have crossed the line of Tsaltar dead. Definitely seeing fewer bugs in the house as a result. That being said, it doesn't seem to be as effective against flying insects but that makes sense considering they have to touch the areas that would have been sprayed and since they fly, it's a little easier for them to avoid them. However, overall, this is definitely a great insecticide.

I live in Dorchester County, Maryland. If you're not familiar with that area, I'm just miles from Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge which is basically a large swamp. Mosquitos can be HORRIBLE. There have been times where just running out to throw something in the trash can result in getting swarmed, literally SWARMED with mosquitoes of 30+. I have 3 acres which is mostly grass, but I'm surrounded by woods/swamps. There are over 300 acres of flooded woodland and swamp around me so I had severe doubts that spraying for mosquitos in just my little section would do anything at all. The reviews I saw here were promising and I figured even if it didn't help with mosquitos, it could still be good for other creepy crawlies getting into my house. I mixed 4 ounces of Talstar P into my 4 gallon backpack sprayer and got started. I sprayed all around my house, patio area, all bushes and low hanging trees and even on grass areas around my immediate home. The following afternoon I walked outside with no bug spray and waited. And waited. And waited. I saw MAYBE two mosquitos. I couldn't believe it. It's been 1 week no and still, it's difficult to find a mosquito! I don't know how long this will last for, but I'm impressed and plan to spray again in a few weeks to keep this up.

Sprayed Talstar outside up sides and out several feet from house resolved mosquitos, which is good because I constantly walk out of house with vacuum containers of fleas. Talstar indoors around baseboards/cracks did not do much for fleas. It cannot be used to broadcast spray indoors so I used Demize EC/Precor for that several times which did not work either. Permethrin can be broadcast sprayed indoors and does help with fleas.

We have had a real bad tick problem this year. I spray the yard once a month with Talstar and have the ticks under control now. We have four dogs and we where finding ticks on the dogs and in our house even in the beds. Once we started using Talstar no more ticks in the house or on our pets. DoMyOwnPestControl is a great company shipping is free and super fast. Neve have had an issue with DMOPC.

Using this product for 3 years. I saw my $275.00 per visit national brand name exterminator using it successfully on my carpenter ants around my house and wooden deck. I use it 2 oz per gallon, (outside) as instructed, twice per year, in April and July. No sign of anything outside and no ants, spiders etc. in the house or basement. Great buy in 3/4 gal. which I split with 2 neighbors, who both report the same results.

I've used this product for years and it never disappoints. My wife & I moved to a house with a earwig infestation, and we tried every insecticide with no relief. Then we started using Talstar and guess what--NO MORE EARWIGS. I can't say enough good things about this product--it kills insects, and is safe for animals. Need I say more! Thanks to Do My Own Pest Control--my house is earwig and pest free.

I live deep in the woods and unfortunately in prime stinkbug territory. They will infest a house to "winter-over". Began using Talstar 4 years ago. It works. I spray the entire outside of the house once a year in August just before they become very active. Last two years, no stinkbugs. Area is still plagued by them. I see dead ones at the base of the exterior walls, but nothing gets in.

I read the reviews on using Talspar P and was somewhat impressed . Well I'm here to say it is absolutely the best spray I have ever used. I've had no issues with any insects at all since I sprayed around my house. I would highly recommend Talspar P to anyone wanting to kill insects around their house. I will buy more after I run out of what I have now. I highly recommend using it.

I moved from Wisconsin to Arizona (Phoenix area) roughly 3 years ago, and quickly learned that having a pest control plan is a must. But I didn't want to pay a monthly fee to an exterminator to do something I could do myself, so I searched the web, and discovered Talstar P sold on DoMyOwn.com. I've been uber-happy with the results. While people in my neighborhood complain about scorpions and spiders in their houses and on their property, I don't have that problem, thanks to Talstar P. And I save a ton of money by taking on the task myself, instead of relying on a costly pest control company. Just bought my second bottle of concentrate (it lasts a long time, too). Awesome product, super effective, and so easy to use.

Bought a gal of the Talstar P to fight the sugar ant problem I was having. They were so bad this year that anything and everything I tryed prior to Talstar P did not help for long. I would find ant trails going down the side walk for two to three houses. My neighbor even found them in his truck. I would find them in my Garage,Workshop,And inside the House.They were everwere. I recieved my 1gal of Talstar P from Do My Own Pest Control and watched the Video on there sight and started spraying. I walked around the next day and could not find one Ant around or in my house. My neighbor still had the suger Ant Problem. trails going into his House,garage,you could find trails going everwere. He was using Brand X for his Ant problem and It kept them away for a few days and they were back again. I told him about Talstar P and even sprayed around his House to show how it worked. Its been 7 weeks and "NO" Ants. Thanks Talstar P & Do My Own PestControl for stocking a great Product.

This stuff really works. I sprayed for those tiny ants that always come in every year. It took a little over a week I guess to take affect but now I just get an ant here and there. Sprayed inside house and around outside perimeter and around outside of windows. I am even taking some to my friend to treat her house. Very fast shipping. Well worth the $.

At neighbor's recommendation, I bought the Talstar P (Talstar One) 3/4 Gallon. Although only used it once as prescribed, I could see it is keeping ants away from our house already. At 1/2 oz per gallon, I used 4 oz to cover the entire house exterior. Figuring doing this 5 times a year, that comes to 4.8 years, that is a bargain! Highly recommended.

First time purchased Talstar about 5 years ago to cure my lawn of chinch bugs as the products I used previously did not work and almost killed my lawn. Since switching to Talstar the chinch bugs are not feeding on my grass anymore. I am further using Talstar around the permeter of my house and it has virtually eliminated the invasion of all types of bugs entering inside of the house.

This product works great. After one spray I was shocked to wake up the next morning to find small dead bugs that I didn't even know I had in my house. It has also killed the bugs that I knew I had in my house. I will buy this forever if it continues to work this good. I've recommended Talstar and this website to everyone I know. Thanks for a great product.

I moved into a house that had been neglected for years and when spring arrived my home was bombarded with pill bugs and ants. I came across Talstar from an Internet search and for $25 figured it was worth a try. Smart move, this stuff kills everything. Within a week I have not seen 1 bug alive in my house. I don't know what else to say except buy this!

I sprayed this everywhere around the outside of my house, including planters. I have yet to see a bug several weeks after, with the exception of some dead crickets. I usually have ants in the house by this time of year, and have yet to see one. Also, I have used other insecticides that have a terrible chemical smell...this stuff doesn't. Don't pay for a bug guy, but this stuff!

This stuff was recommended to me by my Uncle who had started using it after seeing it was the chemical his 'pest guy' used when he showed up at his house. I mixed and sprayed as directed in my new house and haven't had any problems with insects. When we moved in we had numerous spots where 'sugar ants' as some call them were a nuisance, this took care of it no problem. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

This product was first recommended to me to help get rid of noseeums on my lanai. Those pesky, biting little bugs that can squeeze through the screened in area around the pool. It works great, any bugs I see are DEAD. I also was able to use this for a chinch bug lawn problem as this product can be used in the house, outside of the house, on lawns and also on bushes and shrubs. Great 'all-purpose' insecticide at a great price.

I've used Talstar for 5 or 6 years around my house and shop, several acres. I got it for treating my lawn with a boom sprayer behind my tractor to kill red ants. I spray the whole yard. Talstar works well and lasts for at least a year. A little goes a long way. I also use it inside for all house pests with equally good results. Easy and cost effective.

I bought this product and wow does it work. I sprayed as instructed around my house a few days ago and I'm beginning to see lots of dead bugs including spiders. I dont see any spiders crawling around. Hopefully the product lasts as stated, 3 months and if not I will just spray again. I also did the window sills in hope that they wont get in house through there.

No more mosquitoes, insects etc... Please buy Talstar P it is a good product.

Great all around pesticide! It can be used in a pump sprayer inside and outside the house and can also be mixed in gallon milk jugs to kill fire ant mounds!
