Will Talstar P be better for Mosquito control in a motorized backpack mister than a Permethrin 10%?

I use a sprayer similar to Solo, it is from Italy, don't remember the name (same color as a Stihl products). I have been using Barrier Concentrate, probably repackaged by Profesional Mosquito Control, but active ingredient Permethrin 10%. It seems as if Talstar P may be more effective??

Answer:

Yes, Talstar works great for mosquito control. Talstar can be used in your mister. The key is to apply it to all shrubs, trees, and other foliage around the house or where you are trying to provide relief.  It should be directed not only on top of the leaves and plants, but on the underside of the leaves as well which is where the mosquitoes hang out during the heat of the day.  Talstar should be applied every 30 days for optimum control.
