On doymyown.com, how do y’all decide/what do y’all recommend between talstar, Bifen, etc.?

Trying eliminate a quarterly spray from local company with limited results plus I want to control mosquitos (at least a little).

I have a Stihl Backpack fogger and multiple sprayers. Thanks for the help.

Talstar is more and the same as bifen. IT is water based 1oz per gal, the XTS is oil based (no it won’t stain floors) and a 1/4oz per gallon. The XTS also holds a longer residual. I use the bifen granules in the yard and XTS around the house unless more is needed.

They are all the same active ingredient. Talstar is the "name brand". As mentioned before, they have water based and oil based products out there. The regular water based is about 8% active.....and I've purchased the oil base up over 20% active ingredient. Just mix accordingly.
