Product Description

Talstar PL Granular Insecticide is for outdoor broadcast or spot treatment and should be applied with the proper equipment to ensure the best coverage of the areas being treated.

See label for specific application rates and equipment settings.

Broadcast Spot Applications: For the control of actively foraging ants (including Imported Fire Ants) broadcast uniformly 2.3 to 4.6 lbs. Talstar PL granular insecticide per 1000 sq. ft.

Flea larvae: Flea larvae develop in the soil of shaded areas that are accessible to pets or other animals. Irrigate the treated area with up to 0.5 inches of water immediately after application to activate (release from the granule) the insecticide.

Fire ant mound treatment: Apply 1/2 cup of Talstar PL Granular Insecticide per mound and then drench the mound with 1 to 2 gallons of water. The mound should be drenched with sufficient force to break its apex and allow the insecticide to flow into the ant tunnels. Treat three feet out around the mound.For best results, apply in cool weather (65 to 80F) or in early morning or late evening hours. Treat new mounds as they appear. Food utensils such as teaspoons and measuring cups should not be used for food purposes after use with insecticide

    I’m 72 years old and got out and covered every ant hill in my yard , thought it was working ,but a few days later it rained and everywhere I had a hill a few feet away there would be 3 times more hills , I really don’t think it killed one ant and now my yard is full of hills ! Very very disappointed 😢

    Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2020

    I have used this product for many years, mostly in Hawaii. Recently used it to stop an ant colony that was invading a fleet of cast trailers in one application. It kills all kinds of bugs that have an ekto-skeleton and crawl on the ground, lay eggs in the ground. I sprinkle a border around the house to keep insects out and scatter it broadly over the yard. It kills Centipedes, Ants, Fleas, Grubs(Moth larvae) and any roach like bug on the ground. It will stop a reoccurring flea infestation better than super toxic professional products that require a license to use. This product is a synthetic form of pyrethrum that is wrapped around granules of sand. Most common household products use ground up corn husks to distribute the active product. Corn husk stays on the surface or floats away when it is watered in. After watering in, Talstar PL goes down to the ground level and has a release period of about 3 months. Direct contact with high concentration may irritate skin. I have used it in areas occupied by children and pets with no problems. Professional bug sprays with a residual kill alters Bug/Flea DNA, very dangerous to other living organisms. Pyrethrum comes from plants like marigolds and chrysanthemums but does not last in the elements. Synthetic pyrethrum (Bifenthrin) lasts longer in the elements. Safe for foliage. Not safe for fish. Do not use near a pond.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely effective against fire ants
    Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2023

    Talstar is expensive. But, it is worth it. We have tons of fire ants in our area that have mated with local ants and are now small and can survive the winters in our area. But using this on their mounds is 100% effective. Use a (long) shovel to open the mound and expose the tunnels, sprinkle a generous helping of Talstar, then soak with water until the granules disappear. The fire ants will be dead in about 30 minutes.

    Very easy to use, it repels the ants as soon as the stuff hits the ground. So far haven't seen it actually kill any ants but it repels very well. Find the source of the problem though, in my case it was grass clippings (compost area). Cleaned it up, and used this product mixed with water to flush out the entrance to the ant mound.

    Had ants all over the place; inside and out. I used the granules with a spreader for the large areas and the liquid Talstar (1 oz. per gallon) for the boarders, edges and cracks. It took about two weeks for it to take hold. I also had to use some of the liquid inside the house along the baseboards where I found them coming in. Its been about 2 months now without a trace of ants; this is a first in the 20 plus years since we've owned our house we've been totally ant free. Use as directed; remember, this will not kill ants immediately. It is highly diluted and slow acting so the ants will take it back to the nest. When an ant dies in the nest, it is recycled and eaten by the others and so the poison is spread throughout the nest. Don't mix it stronger thinking it will work better; it won't! You will make it work less! You will kill the surface ants and they will die on top of the ground and won't take die in the nest. As a plus, it also takes our crickets, earwigs, fleas and black widow spiders and more. I've seen a dozen black dead widow spiders lying around. This will not effect the good spiders in the bushes and trees as these stay off the ground where you spray. I also helped a friend of mine who had ant problems, they had the same positive results. I will always keep some of this product on hand. It says to respray with the liquid about every 3 months to maintain the barrier.
