I'm about to smoke all the damn ants in my yard that act like they want to move into my house. Been a couple years ant free after applying talstar. Anything else out there that can hold talstar's jock strap?

Ive been very impressed with Tempo SC Ultra recently (about 1 month). Ive sprayed inside and outside of my house and I havent even seen a bug or roach since that day.

No, talstar takes care of spiders, ants, ticks, fleas. That shite is the end all be all.

I use generic Talstar on all my practice fields, because it is cheap. On the playing fields, Top Choice all the way. Expensive as all hell, but worth it. As a homeowner, I'd stick with the Talstar (bifenthrin).

Treat mine with Talstar, Permethrin, a growth regulator, and Suspend. You can lay naked with grape jelly smeared all over you in my yard and not get an ant or any other bug on you.


Disclaimer: I do this because I have a child who is terribly allergic to fire ants.

Suspend.


All those are in the same class of pesticide, so you could really just use 1 and it'll have the same effect.

Is there a difference in concentrations? Just curious what I should get for home use. We are infested with ants, and I want to give this a try.

TIA

That shite is magical. Used to be tough to get. I may have to get some more if it's more available.

It's what I use and love it too. I've read on here that many also use Suspend and say it works very well too.

Bifen LP, it's Talstar generic. I buy the 25lb granular bags and it smokes everything in the yard. Cost about $25/bag for 25 lb bag
