14 of 14 people found this review helpful:    By JAY from MA on September 18, 2008 I bought a quart of Talstar One two years ago. It works better than I could've imagined. I spray around perimeter of house about 2-3 times a year and it keeps any and all pests away. I used Diazinon before but those results pale in comparison to Talstar One. I hope you have this product for a long time to come. Was this review helpful to you?

10 of 12 people found this review helpful:    By William from Wetumpka, AL on July 2, 2008 Talstar P is an excellent product because it is so persistent and does not break down. Most phosphor based products break down the moment they are expose to sunlight. This one will not. We have an open ditch behind our property that used to be the home to millions of mosquitoes - not anymore. I spray about 200 ft of the ditch in either direction twice a year, using a total of perhaps 30 oz of Talstar a year, and we have been mosquito free for three years. Was this review helpful to you?

5 of 5 people found this review helpful:   Read the directions, spray it yourself & save big! By karen on July 23, 2009 It seems our entire street lives on an ant hill, because we could not keep those varmits out for long. I was paying $75 per quarter for pest control in our house and outside as well. I read the directions, applied a band around the outside perimeter, windows and doorways of our home and I have not seen one bug, ant, or anything for the past 2 months. We have had rainy and exceptionaly dry weather, too. I highly recommend Talstar One. Was this review helpful to you?

		Question about this product? Ask our product experts...

Q  Can Talstar be sprayed on my cucumber plants? A Talstar cannot be used on vegetables or fruits directly that are going to be consumed. This goes for most of the insecticide products on our website. We do carry a product called Malathion 57% that can be used on edible fruits and vegetables as long as it is not within two weeks of harvesting.

Q  Does Talstar come in an aerosol form? A Talstar does not come in an aerosol form, only a liquid solution.

Q  Will Talstar control the longed-horn beetle? I use Talstar for the flower garden and it works wonders! A Talstar is labeled for many beetles but not specifically for the long horned beetle.  However, after doing some research we have found many sites and government studies that list Talstar as a fom of treatment for the long horned beetle.

Q  How effective is Talstar on Scorpions? Mainly looking for an effective outdoor insecticide. A Talstar is our most popular general use insecticide and the most widely used by professional pest control companies.  It can be used indoors as well as outside, and it is odorless and very safe to use when children and pets are present.  The key to scorpion control is a very thorough outside treatment around the foundation of your home.  For scorpions you should treat around the exterior of your home every 30 days in the spring and summer when scorpions are most active.

Q  What is the shelf life of Talstar (or Bifen IT)? A The manufacturer gives Talstar P and Bifen a shelf life of 3 years as long as you keep the top on the bottle and not store it in direct sunlight.

Q  Can Talstar be used around pharmaceutical facilities? A Talstar can be used around these type of facilities as long as it used according to the label and applied to cracks and crevices down low near the floor.

Q  Can you tell me if Talstar will kill mange mites in the ground? A Talstar is labeled for general mites, but mange mites typically are on livestock or pets.  For mange mites we recommend Tengard SFR which could be used to treat the ground outside, as well as inside the home over a certain area.  Tengard SFR can also be used on a pet to kill mites without harming the pet.

Q  Is this product effective in killing bird mites? A Talstar One/Talstar P is effective against killing bird mites, however it is only labeled to apply in cracks and crevices.  When treating for bird mites usually you would want to spray all carpeted areas and lightly spray the flooring.  Talstar is not labeled for this.  We do have a product that is though, and its called Tengard SFR.  Tengard is a permethrin based product that is labeled to apply as a broad application or a space spray.  It is also very safe, it is even permissable to apply to pets to kill fleas and ticks.

Q  I have been using a service to spray our Spruce and Junipers for bagworms each year. The cost has become rather high lately. Will Talstar P do a good job controlling bagworms? Are there any health concerns with this product? A Talstar is the #1 recommended product for bagworm control. Talstar is known to have a very low toxicity for mammals making it safe to use around people and pets. Please visit the Talstar product page where you can review  Talstar's product label as well as the MSDS. Talstar applications should start in April and continue monthly through June for bagworm control. Be sure foliage is sprayed thorughly to the point of runoff to achieve adequate coverage.

Q  Can Talstar P be used on vegetables if it is properly diluted? I normally use .3% Bifenthrin diluted for squash bugs. A No. Talstar is not labeled for use on edible vegetation. The only product we carry that can be used on vegetable gardens is Malathion.
