pet safe indoor/outdoor insecticide has the longest residual impact outdoors?

i need an insecticide for termites, fleas, carpenter ants, water bugs, and spiders to be used inside and outside of a single family home in residential neighborhood. i need something that i can use in the yard an inside the home. i have one dog. Thanks.

Answer:

Our most popular general use product is called Talstar.  It is widely used by pest control companies because it is labeled for almost every insect you could have a problem with and you can use it outside the home as well as inside, it is odorless and very safe for use around children and pets.  It is a liquid concentrate that you mix with water in a  hand pump sprayer.  It will last for 60 to 90 days outside in between treatments.  It is also labeled for lawn and ornamental use, and can be used on trees, plants, bushes and shrubs for all sorts of ornamental pests including Japanese beetles, mosquitoes, and other leaf eating pests. Termites are treated much differently than other pests and our best termite control product is Termidor SC.
