Talstar Granules (Talstar PL), with its unique sand core granular structure, provides long-term protection against insect pests in lawn, gardens and landscaped areas for two to four months. Talstar Granules penetrate deep into mulch and grass to kill pests where they breed and hide. Simply spread the granules over your lawn according to the label directions. No watering is needed. The difference between Talstar EZ Granules and Talstar PL is granular size (Talstar PL is more fine like sand, and therefore can penetrate deeper than EZ).

Talstar PL did a great job for a couple month at killing almost everything in my yard. I still have a problem with fire ants and yellow jackets nesting. I have seen a large number of crickets popping up lately.
How soon after watering in Talstar PL Granules can you let your pet on the treated surface?
It is perfectly safe to let your pet back on the treated surface after one hour of watering in the Talstar PL Granules.
I have a Lesco commercial spreader. What setting should I set it on for a 0.2 application?
We are not famliar with that type of spreader since we do not sell it. We would reccommend calling Lesco or you can try calling FMC (manufacturer of Talstar Granules) at 1-800-321-1362.
