Will it kill wasp nest, the lava and the queen and not let them rebuild back. I have nest in the attic that i can get to only by spraying.

The answer above is incorrect. Talstar kills on contact. Its not eaten. "Talstar P is a liquid concentrate insecticide which contains bifenthrin, a synthetic pyrethroid. Pyrethroids work by disrupting an insect's nervous system causing a weakened state followed by death. Talstar P does not provide an instant knockdown of pests, rather, pests pick up the residual active ingredient by contact." Use Wasp Freeze for the wasp nest.

Whatever this stuff touches it's dead and it will stay on that surface for about a week or so , best to use with warm water so it won't clog your sprayer

Talstar P will only kill the insects that contact a treated surface or that are sprayed directly and it will not kill on contact. To kill the nest it is best to use a product like the Wasp X which will expand once it hits the nest and help to eliminate the whole nest.Wasp-X Wasp & Hornet Spray-1 Can

Yes it is very good at killing the mosquito lava eggs. I use it all over my back yard and in some spots of the backyard it is vey low area which accumale water when it rains a lot. I have few to no Mosquitos compared to a year ago.

Only wood destroying ants in wall void. You need to read label on application of product. We use it for wall voids and it works very well.

I tried it twice on a yellow jacket nest (in house soffit). I treated in late afternoon rather than at night, so not all the yellow jackets were in the nest. Returning yellow jackets were hesitant to go into the nest, but eventually did and the nest is still active. So I would say this product is NOT effective at killing yellow jackets. But yellow jackets are wasps, not bees, so there may be a difference there.

Yes... I used it in my home to kill large black ants (placing a bead of optigard in window corners, molding edges and such) and they were gone within days. I then used it outdoors on a tree where a large colony of carpenter ants had been living (careful to put the bait in deep, where only the ants would get it and not hurt other wildlife) and within just a couple of days there was no more activity.

Hey! I've been fighting 10 acres of fireants at my outdoor concert facility. Yes it killed/moved the ants fairly well however treating 3-500 mounds several times a year would have been insanely expensive. The most effective cost efficient method has come down to poke a hole in the mound as deep as you can. Pour a dribble of gasoline into the hole. Kill the queen and the mound is done. Miss her and there's a new mound. Estimate 80/90% effective. Yeah yeah... Not eco correct but 5 gallons a year verses a couple hundred lbs. of approved poison... Seems better to me.

It is supposed to kill an ant mound when you release the CO2 capsule into the mound . I used several of the canisters in my garden, but did not get rid of fire ants. It might work on other types of ants.

I dont know, I get these out before hand, ( I put them out when its still a little cold) they wont work if an established nest is already there, destroy the nest if you can, then try to put it up, I am not sure of the kind of wasp I have but these really worked for me.

Yes, it does. There was a wasp in my house today, and I chased him around til the Zapper could make contact. After the first zap, he then dropped to the floor and I zapped him a few more times, as he was still moving. But YES, he ended up DEAD!

This will definitely wipe them out. I had paper wasps under my siding and the dust wiped them out in 24 hours.

By the reviews, this is suppose to work on ants. I have acres of land to treat. There are many kind of ants but the main problem ants are FIRE ants, red ants, & the big black ones ( not carpenter ants). I mix this granules with several other brands of ant killers and use a liquid product that is for ants also. I have found it is best to use it late evenings, place it around the beds and do every ant bed I find. I place the mix in a large shaker can or use a small scoop so I can go al around the edges of beds then I use the liquid to squirt the beds also. I live in the south, it is hot here. Ants are present almost all year round. All it seems like ant poisons do is they move their beds to another area. I've talked to our agriculture agents and other farmers, nothing works all of the time. You may kill one queen but as other eggs hatch, you have different ( new) ants to kill. is what I've been told. I have not tried burning like this agent suggested. One agent told me he used gasoline in his fields to and burned the beds but do not try it without someone to help you control any fire and do not use close to buildings or your home. I have standard poodles and also have rescued standards. I'd love to find a product I could say, yes it works. Products that worked on killing ants about 20 years ago have been outlawed now. Those worked.

It does kill wasps...but i doubt you would want this in your car. Would get pretty strong in that confined space. Probably better to find the nest and spray with raid or some kind of bee killer.

The Orange Guard has killed every insect that I've sprayed. I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't kill the termites as long as you can get the spray on them.

Yes, this product will work to kill carpenter ants. For best results, locate and treat nests and surrounding areas. Apply around doors and windows and other places where ants enter premises and where they crawl and hide. Spray into infested wood through existing openings.

Yes, they will carry poison back to nest and the poison will draw out more.Also ants usually show up around water sources, that is really what they are after. I have had great luck wiping out the ants w/ this product.

Hi, I didn't use it in the house. By the time I covered the whole foundation and around the windows outside I only found a couple of scorpions in the house the next day and they were already dead. Just to be sure we sprayed once every 2 weeks for the first 2 months... now we just spray after a heavy rain and keep the grass low. I don't even see an ant in the house!

Fire Ants cannot be controlled with liquid insecticides. I tried for years. I now have them under control using AMDRO Fire Ant bait that is labled to kill the queen. It comes in a black 15 pound bag available at Lowe's. Sprinkle two tablespoons around each nest, or, if it is a small yard use as the lable directs. It takes a week or 10 days to kill the nest AND QUEEN. It must be slow kill to get the queen, for otherwise the nest's queens will just move over and begin other nests. Workers only live 34 days anyway. To kill fleas, you must both kill the active fleas and the flea larvae. Many insecticides will kill the adult fleas, but the larvae take a special insecticide like Precor. Just killing the adults will not solve the problem, for the larvae hatch to begin the cycle over again.
