Atticus Talak 7.9% Indoor/Outdoor Insect Control - Bifenthrin Concentrate (32 Ounce)

This stuff works. I have/had a really bad infestation of clothing moths. They had gotten to a rug and moved into my subfloor and crawlspace. I tried all the typical strategies you'll see online - vacuumed, washed, scrubbed, dusted, put every article of clothing, blankets, towels, etc into vacuum-sealed bags or water-tight bins (need to be gasketed or the little jerks can squeeze in). I even called in a professional exterminator who charged me $200 and had zero effect. I was literally losing my mind.So I went a little nuts. I got into my crawlspace and vacuumed out every bit of filth I could reach. I pulled up floorboards and stuck a shop vac hose under the floor. Then I mixed up a couple batches of this stuff + an IGR (insect growth regulator) in a pump sprayer, according to instructions included with the chemicals, and went to town. I ended up spraying 2 gallons of the mix altogether blasting under my floor, into the crawlspace, and putting a coating on the walls, floor, and ceiling as residual protection. After letting it air out appropriately I came back to virtually no moths. Still a few stragglers fluttering around, but a 99% reduction. Did it again a week later and they are nearly gone. I'm sure I didn't get every single one but I knocked em way, way back and at least my house isn't a nightmare of fluttering little clothes eating devils anymore.One thing to note about this stuff is that it does not kill on contact. It causes the insects to become paralyzed and shuts down their neural systems. This can take a few hours sometimes. I nearly had a fit when I saw a few moths a day or two after I first sprayed but by the end of the day they were convulsing and dropping. It also won't kill pupae. The IGR is important to shut down reproduction. For moths specifically, they are essentially immune to all poisons when they are in the chrysalis metamorphosing to the adult stage so it is likely to still see some for a few weeks after treatment. The residual nature of this adulticide will help get the ones who emerge after initial spraying.TLDR: If you've got a real infestation, this (+IGR) is the way to go. Highly recommended.

Received my order about an hour ago I immediately started mixing things up to start spraying. I can’t say exactly if it’s going to work or not however, soon as I stepped outside and started spraying, I had 3 fleas that jumped on me, which I of course, hit them off me kept spraying. I walked in that area right after that to backtracking start spraying again And nothing jumped on me at that point, which is truly amazing because I’ve had it really really bad over here with stray cats in my yard my yard was infested with fleas. It got onto my porch and every once in a while I would see it in my house, but it was on our clothes and we had to go outside and hit it off. It was really bad but however, I don’t think it works on flies just yet or mosquitoes cause one just bit me so I’ll update my review on tomorrow around this time to see if it also works and helps with flies and mosquitoes okay update on my review 5/31/25 i’m starting to think that my prayers have finally been answered with fleas so far and mosquitoes, but for flies no update 06/02/2025 nope doesn’t work on mosquitoes

Similar stuff that we used when I used to do landscaping to kill Japanese beetles and aphids on plants just got some sprayed 1 gallon all over the yard on everything and literally I haven't seen a bug the entire day. Didn't even see moths coming to the lights at night for the most part, hot a massive fly issue as well with all wildcats using the bathroom everywhere. I've seen one fly the entire day and not a single mosquito when before i was getting swarmed in north Carolina this stuff really works I always tell peoples you get stuff like this instead of that crap they sell at Lowe's and home Depot. That stuff generally is nothing more than harsh chemicals or poisons that are toxic. This stuff is safe to use around pets and plants and the price it is insanely low. Other brands of the same stuff would be closer to $100

It does work well

Works great. Always sprayed around the perimeter of house foundation for use keeps ants away and any insects away. Spray foot up on foundation and a few inches on ground away from foundation.Works the second you spray. Make sure when you spray outside there's no rain forcasted for a couple days. If it has rained 2 days in a row or more my suggestion is to re apply to foundation again to be on the safe side! Wear rubber gloves, goggles and always wear long pants with workboots

This product exceeded my expectations. My home had an infestation of earwigs (pincher bugs) in my yards and they began making their way into my home. Needless to say, after using this product, I haven't seen a pincher bug again. Some pincher bugs died shortly after being sprayed, others died overnight and the span of a couple days. The morning after my first use I woke up to many dead pincher bugs on my driveway and patio.

We have a very old farmhouse that gets overrun with beetles and wasps every year. We started this stuff in the beginning of march after the snow left and we started seeing beetles again, sprayed once and they haven’t came back. We just resprayed again for the sake of starting summer and we haven’t seen any wasps stalking our porch like usual this entire spring either. Not as many spiders too! I’m super stoked! I feel like I have my house and porch and plants back finally!!

Works and don't sprayed about 5 times still have fleas in areas where I sprayed just not nearly as many
