Customer Reviews for Talstar P Professional Insecticide

I have been paying for pest control for a number of years and finally decided to try it myself. With this product which I applied at the beginning of September, I am confident that I can do this for a lot less money and actually do a better job than the ones I was paying. Have already seen good results of the treatment.

I mixed this per the directions and was so excited to watch our bug problems disappear. Boy was I wrong! For 24 hours we had maybe 2 mosquitos and thats it (which is saying a lot since we had tons of crickets, moths, ants, and flies by the swarms). I noticed though that the bugs were coming back more and more with every hour that went by. After one week we were back to the same amount of bugs that we had when I first sprayed. Now tonight at the two week mark we have more bugs than we did prior to this and I found a cockroach alive and crawling around on my patio. We keep a clean house. The dishes get done every day, we don't leave food out, etc. Why did a "professional grade" insecticide make my bug problem WORSE in 2 weeks? I am appalled! I am in search of something that will actually work and won't be touching this product again for as long as I live. I only recommend this product to those who are going for the infestation approach to decorating.

This is definitely the best product ever! It kills every type of insect I know of .. especially fire ants! First product I've used that actually kills the fire ants! This is my 2nd order and I will definitely continue using and ordering.

Talstar worked great for me. I sprayed inside and outside of my house months ago. Very economical.

After reading all the precautions and dangers of using Talstar P Professional Insecticide, I was fearful of the dangers. It is highly potent. Is there an intermediate-strength product for use in a private home?

  Expert response:
Talstar P is very safe to use by homeowners when used as directed on the product label. People and pets should be out of the area during application until dry typically about 1 hour inside, 4-6 hours outside. We also have a great general pest prevention guide that can help and general spray video https://www.domyown.com/integrated-pest-management-a-455.html https://www.domyown.com/videos/139

I live in Maine. Ticks are everywhere you go in my area and worst part is they are usually deer ticks which, carry lyme more than 50% of the time. I know quite a few who have had lyme disease and they live with lifelong pain and other problems now. Thanks to Talstar P I don't have to worry about ticks or mosquitos in the yard anymore. I live in the woods and with swampy areas all around. I should have ordered sooner this year but, I didn't know it would warm up so quickly and the ticks would be out in force. Everyone of the demons has been a deer tick. So, I have to get this laid down quick. Before one of us gets Lyme or worse. I can safely say that Talstar P has been protecting my family for 3 years now and I am so thankful for this product. I mix 1oz to each gallon and use a backpack sprayer. IDK if 1oz/gal is overkill but, I don't mess around with taking the chance of it not killing every tick possible. I have already had 7 ticks on me and 2 latched on into the skin. I swear they are becoming more vicious. Don't hesitate to buy Talstar P. It works!!!

The mixer is a little pain for small amounts but otherwise is good. Product works great and is pretty cost effective with the dilution rates. I will buy again from DoMYOwn

I use Talstar P to spray our field and around our house where my dog runs. It seems to really reduce the overall bug population; ticks, ants, fleas, etc. I like doing business with this southern company!

We were paying a well known professional company $40 a month to spray. I noticed in the back of their truck they were using Talstar. So, $40 and it last 2 years. Not hard to spray yourself.

I was a little skeptical at first however after seeing my friends results I had to give it a try. I sprayer around the perimeter of my house and in the rocks since we have seen quite a few roaches and spiders. After the first day we found over 50 dead roaches and multiple spiders. I would highly recommend. Follow all the safety and mixing instructions.

Treated my yard with this product but added little extra product than suggested. I can tell its a very big difference from what its typically is and now. You will still have some mosquitos flying around but its not even close to what it was. Would suggest it to others.

The professional pest manager told me about Talstar. Sprayed my entire yard, 3 acres, last Saturday to control gnats, mosquitos and horse flies. I'm near to the Tennessee River where it's swampy so mosquitos have been really bad. On Sunday I was working in my yard and noticed there weren't swarms of gnats or horse flies. First time this summer my wife and I were able to relax on the patio without donating a couple pints of blood. Not sure how long it will last but I'll reapply when bugs return. Much more effective then malathion.

Cant say I'd purchase again. Sprayed liberally around foundation and up walls. After 3 days no change in millipede population. Even mixed with exciter for instant kill. Yeah big fat No on that. When I actually sprayed directly on millipedes I think they thought they were just getting a bath.

  Expert response:
We apologize you did not achieve the intended results. Talstar P alone is not a contact kill, those sprayed directly will die faster than those that contact a treated area once dry but it will still take time to kill and you can still see insects in the area. We would welcome the opportunity to troubleshoot the application to help get you the results you need. Please contact us at your earliest convenience!

This insecticide is one of the best and most effective. I have treated inside and outside of my house/ cracks and crevices. Very good coverage and protection against ants, spiders, fleas and ticks.

I bought this to control insects around my home. Mainly ants and yellow jackets which were both becoming a problem for me. Worked great on ants with only one treatment. Appeared to have no effect on the bees as they continued to enter nesting areas even after sprayed multiple times in one week.

This works extremely well on stink bugs. I hope and expect it will do just as well on the box elder bugs and Asian lady beetles as well.

We used this product for controlling stinkbugs, spiders, and other Fall invaders beginning at the start of October. After researching effective means of controlling spiders, we learned that one must also control other overwintering bugs like the invasive Chinese stinkbugs. Much like the people with whom they share a continent, these insects have moved into our area and remained an unwanted pest. We sprayed the outside of our home around penetrative areas. and sealed them with foam. Few chinese stinkbugs have presented themselves thus far. I can only assume this indicates the effectiveness of Talstar.

I have been using this for the last few years for Asian beetles and for all my year round spraying. I had been paying someone almost $200 to spray my house for Asian beetles and now I do my own for a fraction of the cost using 1/2 oz per gallon.

This stuff works great AND is not banned in California (yet). I have a major phobia of spiders and this product is fantastic at taking care of them and other bugs would recommend this product to anyone and everyone.
