My backyard has been a nightmare. Nothing has worked. I watched your video Thursday and ordered products. They arrived Friday then I sprayed immediately. It's not Saturday night and I pushing my daughter on the swings. Have only seen 1 mosquito. Thanks man
Glad it helped!
I’ve used Bifen IT and Tekko Pro. Thanks for the Tekko Pro recommendation. The combination of the two has really helped. My mosquito problems have been dropped to 0. Demand CS is also really good as well.
Good info, my wife is a mosquito magnet. We hired a mosquito control company and my wife tried sitting on a lawn chair in our yard. She still got bit. The mosquitos service guaranteed results so they came back and used a stronger mixture of spray. Still no good. We got our money back but we have not come up with a remedy yet.
Seems like the company’s mistake was over using the product. Insects can build up a resistance to a chemical if they are exposed to the same one repeatedly. Knowing the popularity of talstar pro like the gentleman in the video said I bet you that company bulk orders talstar pro at wholesale then just over sprays peoples yards. It could also be mosquitoes from nearby homes/bodies of water are simply coming to harass you by simply flying over your poisoned yard.
If you live in the suburbs then I would suggest speaking with your neighbors about a joint effort in applying chemicals so you aren’t over using the same product with them. this will help reduce their population. Next you might want to consider setting up a outdoor seating area with mosquito netting, we all know it saves lives in Africa yet we often forget how it can improve our own. It might seem expensive at first but remember that netting/curtains are a buy once and leave it forever thing so no annual purchases, try mosquitocurtain.com to get a idea of size and cost. Lastly to repel any remainder mosquitos that are bothering you then use thermacell outdoor repellent and mosquito spray that has deet in it.
For treating your yard buy tal star pro, flex 10-10, and Sylo. Rotate them on a monthly cycle and use a 1oz to a gallon of water mixture until you feel things are under control then lower dosage to .5 an ounce.

May:flex 10-10

I hope this helps.
Customers from hell. Anything to save a buck, huh?
@@frankrizzo7307 seriously. It doesn’t mean every single mosquito will die forever 😂
@@caelenow2829 I agree, that's why I said that they were customers from hell. 🤣
Sounds like you need a new wife
Great info and editing. Tekko is like birth control for mosquitos lol :)
Exactly!
This is a great video. I could never understand why spring plants would affect mosquitoes
Thanks for the shout out TC!!! We appreciate it!!!
Of course, hope all is well!
@@TurfCulture All is well here!!! Mosquito Sniper System is selling fantastic and we are crushing goals that we set so it's been unreal! I still try to watch all your great videos when I can. It looks like your doing well and keep up the good work!!!
GREAT VIDEO !! So Many Great ideas !! I have taken your advice and Love it !! Thanks SO Much !! Please keep these mosquito videos coming !!
Thats a good video on mosquito control right there. Nice work B.
Thank you good sir
Never heard of Tekko pro until now, but just ordered some to go along with the Bifen that I just ordered about an hour ago. Thank you!
Bifen is better than demand ac ?
Did the bifen it work for you
@@StealthJackson12B yes
Well just ordered from Amazon give it a shot mosquitoes are bad already
Loved the intro! Well done bro.
Thanks! First time a while I’ve received a comment before my first dislike.
Good overview of control options. 👍
I appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching!
Bifenthrin is my go to. A lot “safer” than talistar
Bifen and Talstar are the same thing.
Thank you...Hopefully I can find these in Canadear
Were you able to find them in Canada? Please share where I can find them. Thank you.
When is the best time to spray? During the day or at dusk?
During the day
These chemicals are so expensive .
Not much cheaper then hiring people .
At least you don’t need to deal with harsh chemicals .
At least pros buy them whole sale .
Retail price for these chemicals small fortune
Very helfull informatiom. Going to try today and see what results I get. Thanks.
Best of luck! Thanks for watching.
Can I spray Talstar on Azalea bushes in the fall when they are not blooming to control mosquitos? Our Azalea bush blooms in February and March. If I spray in October would that be enough time for the Talstar to wear off before the pollinators show up when the bush starts blooming in February?
Talstar has a 30 day residual read over the label just to be sure
Did adding the IGR help with your situation? I've read mixed opinions on whether the IGR helps. Seems like some folks think the active ingredient can transfer to other breeding locations. I've also read that it only works if it contacts breeding areas.
Hard to say, the mosquito population is low so I’m guessing it’s doing its job.
Omg
I need to buy stocks in Bifen ???
Why would you use and IGR, mosquito's lay eggs in standing water not grass, weeds or trees seems like a waste of money and chemical. Also please wear proper PPE not shorts and short sleeves Bifenthrin will kill you from transdermal penetration.
It's awfully hard to reproduce and lay eggs in water if your are a mosquito that comes into contact with IGR on leaf tissue where you life the majority of your life.
What about pets leave dogs in doors for an hour after application?
yes, use as directed
why do these plastic boxes have 2 pipes?
have you used cedar oil? we have companies here that use that as a natural alternative. Great video, we have used a company for years but we are trying to spray ourselves this year. Its getting so expensive with the companies
I've tried several methods, most of the natural methods have a short residual.
This is very helpful. Thank you! 🅰️🅿️💯
So 1oz of tekko and 1oz of bifen is 1 gallon of water?
.4 oz of tekko and 1oz of bifen.
Hello from South Jersey - Is it bad to do mainly Talstar and add a little Demand to the mix or should I just rotate and do one month of Talstar and the following do Demand? I swear mosquito’s love me but the love just isn’t mutual.. trying to enjoy my back yard more frequently without being attacked.
Using both is redundant, rotate the two.
Do these kill honeybees? Is there any way to avoid bee collateral damage?
It would be best to avoid from spraying pollinators.
Do you have to redo this every time it rains?
No, depending on which product you are applying the residual should last 30+ days. Sun degradation and rainfall will shorten the efficacy of you are in a wet climate.
I lived Canada where can I buy these products.
I thought bifen it aline was enough. So what is the mixing ratio for using both?
You’ll have to check your labels for recommended rates.
On the Telstar does it only work when it’s wet or is there residual on plants and or grass that will kill mosquitoes if they land on it.
Thanks
Fred
Talstar is a 30 day residual, Demand is 90 days.
Call so should you be careful spraying around flowers ?will any or all of these kill bees?
Don’t spray and pollinators
I bought all of your recommended products. I live in Eastern NC, near the water, on 2 acres, with LOTS of standing water in ditches. Can I mix all three together? Also, I have a 55 gallon sprayer so did I hear correctly, 1 once per gallon? Thanks!
Make sure to reach the label for each chemical. Bifen is 1oz per gallon, Demand and Tekko pro have their own use rates.
interested to know where you live and how mad your mosquitos are? We literally get swarmed by thousands of them if we are outside during mosquito season in bc Canada. Will these sprays even make a dent ?
I live in Missouri, the mosquitos are definitely an issue here. These are the same products that are used by professionals and they work well.
Great info
So I can spray my grass as well and safe for kids if they go over grass days later ? I have heaps of mosquitos in even thinking of spraying my eaves where they hang out
Kids and pets are safe to enter once the product is dry.
@@TurfCulture bahahahaha, good one.
Thank you. I appreciate your knowledge.
What if I also add Taurus sc as well cause I’ll be doing my diy pest control !
Instead of doing it in a separate that would work hey
Mixing the two would be redundant.
Taurus Can't be broadcasted in the yard like demand or Talstar. Please read label so you and environment are safe.
What about pets, are these all safe for Dogs?
after it's dry please read the label.
Do you spray flower beds? Or does it damage flowers and small bushes. Great video!
Yes I do spray flower beds! Just be mindful of pollinators.
@@TurfCulture But Talstar P is deadly for pollinators. Even after it dries.
@@fastone130 hence why I said to be mindful of pollinators.
@@TurfCulture So don't spray on any plants that pollinators pollinate then?
Great info question I can mix Talstar pro with Tekko pro for kill mosquito and control population of mosquito eggs?
Yes, Talatar P and Tekko pro will give you two modes of action.
@@TurfCulture wouldn’t that be a repellent mix with a non repellent pesticide?
Do you rotate between talstar and demand CS? What's your schedule?
I rotate every 30 days
Are these kid friendly ?
Once dried they are kid and safe friendly. Always consult the label.
I just purchased the cutter fogger, it says the only products you can use with it are : black flag formula 2, cutter , and repel. Highly toxic to aquatic life and I have a large pond with fish in it. I need something not toxic to fish. I read ECO exempt IC is natural and low toxicity. What product and applicator do you recommend. I have 8.5 acres
This is correct, always read the label for equipment compatibility.
Is there anyway I can get in contact with you?
stlturfculture@gmail.com
Is this stuff safe for dogs and kids
After it’s dry
@@TurfCulture how long does it take to dry usually
All these safe for pets and kids after drying?
Yes, always read the label for re entry timing.
Also will any of those work on ticks?
Yes
Dude I hope this works. I’m sick of it.
This is the way.
can i put it in my fogger?
You can use this is a mister but not a fogger.
@@TurfCulture anything can use in a foggy to kill them?
You don't mix all three together?
Have you tried Talstar P?
I've had good success with it, but I'm looking for a product to rotate with.
Thanks, John
IGR
Newbie here, are these all safe for dogs?
All are safe for pets to enter the treated area once it has dried. Make sure to read the label.
Your links don’t work
Fixed, thank you!
People still use talstar ?!! Use one guard! Also controls fleas and tics, read the label. Literally only thing u need. Or use demand and add nyguard . One guard has nyguard in it. This is what we do and it always works
Are you sure bifen is a contact killer? Hmm.
Yep, pretty sure Bifen and Demand both control on contact.
I prefer to be one with the mosquito's
😆😵
I haven't seen Any after using a lil demand cs in a ULV backpack blower. Boy this stuff is killer.
Agreed, demand is my preference.
Too much chemicals, why not get rid of them organically. Use Mosquito Dunks, highly effective without using chemicals. It’s cheap and easy to use and best of all it’s harmless to animals and people.
Because we live in the USA where the trend is to douse everything in chemicals and then wonder why people are getting brain cancer.
No mention of ppe? Spraying in shorts and short sleeves? Come on man.
Per the Talstar and Demand label long sleeves or pants is not specifically called out. I did opt to wear eye protection and chemical resistant gloves. Thanks for watching.
@@TurfCulture may want to brush up on understanding these products beyond just the label. Sds sheets on both products state that you should wear "protective gloves, protective clothing and eye protection"
We depend on these products as professionals and I'd hate to see someone get hurt applying without proper ppe and have the department of AG or EPA pull these. Demand especially can cause severe skin irritation so it's best to be safe.
Good video overall though.
