Which is more effective for killing scorpions -- granular or solution Talstar?

I have a serious scorpion problem on my ranch since I don't go out there very often. Every time I go out to the hill country, I spray Talstar solution and it works great. I am wondering which is more effective and which lasts longer in this dry climate -- the solution or granular form of Talstar? Or are they the same?

Answer:

Granules can typically last 2-3 months whereas liquids like Talstar P will last about 30 days maybe more on outside surfaces.  For scorpions specifically you would want to go with the Cy-Kick CS that will sit on top of the surface better than granules and being microencapsulated will last on outside surfaces closer to 60 days.  The Talstar PL granules would be great to use for the insects the scorpions feed on though.
