Spectracide Concentrate Triazicide Lawn & Landscapes Insect Killer, 40 oz, Black

This concentrated insecticide is great. It kills 260 different species of insects. I use it on my lawn and in the mulch surrounding my Arborvitae Trees. I have one of those hose dial up sprayers to spray the appropriate amount of insecticide. I use this every spring just before the insects arrive. Hands down, it works. And works for months. I figured out a way how to tell ( rather than sticking my face in the lawn). Plain and simple. Birds tell you. My neighbor does nothing to his lawn but cut it. EVERY DAY, his lawn is covered with birds eating ants, grubs, ticks, and whatever else is hanging out in his lawn. Occasionally, a few birds will give my lawn a taste. But they quickly give up, and go back to my neighbor's lawn. There's nothing to eat in my lawn !! My Arborvitae are loaded with robin nests every spring. But, the " parents" go to my neighbor's lawn to feed the chicks. One application lasts 3-4 months. I have no worries about my daughter playing in the grass and getting a tick bite. New York is rampant with Lyme disease. One less thing to worry about. The product is cheap, a little goes a long way in the sprayer. Kills those pesky grass killing grubs too ! It's a great product at a great price.

A very good product, easy to apply, and with fast results. I used it on my lawn and garden and immediately noticed a decrease in insects. I like that it protects for several weeks and covers a large area. I would definitely buy it again; it works better than I expected.

Spectracide Triazicide Insect Killer works good to treat lawns? Is it safe around kids and pets? I've been using this for a while and had a hard time getting it to take care of ants in my yard. On first try I mixed it per the label to mix with a gallon of water in a sprayer and got very little result. The sprayability is fine and it is easy to mix with water but little results. Online I read it should be mixed a good bit stronger like 4 oz of concentrate per gallon of water for certain ants . So I treated the entire yard again. Still little result and even seeing fungus mushrooms after the rain and even ground moles so they are eating something. So I mixed it very strong in a smaller spray bottle to target a few ant hills. That seemed to work. So keep in mind it is a combination of how much concentrate you mix and how heavy you spray requiring various amounts for each problem you are trying to take care of. It does seem to be a good value for the money even if you use half the bottle to treat a 10,000 sq ft yard. Not sure if I will buy it again but I am definably mixing it a lot stronger now. Not sure of the Safety around pets at this point. Also note there is a slight smell but it is very faint when diluted with water.

Spray effectiveness:We had a pretty bad bagworm problem around our front door and flower garden. We don't usually use the front door so it went unnoticed for some time and in doing research online, I found that a "severe infestation" would be very difficult to control (supposedly once they form the bag/cocoons, they're hard to kill). I bought this spray because of the other reviews. It was super easy to use, hooked right up to the hose with no leaks or issues and had a great range, I could spray basically the whole front garden standing in one spot.I was skeptical that this spray would work because a few hours after applying, it seemed like it hadn't killed anything. The next day, EVER SINGLE WORM was dead. Nothing in the flower garden, no worms climbing the brick, nothing. Absolutely thrilled with the effectiveness of this product and it'll be my new go-to for bug control. One treatment hardly used any product, so it's effective as well as a price performer.

I've tried many different insect killers over the years, and I'll admit, nothing works 100%. However, after using Spectracide Triazicide Insect Killer for Lawns Granules, I can confidently say that this is one of the best I've used, and far better than most of the competitors out there. I applied it as directed to my lawn, and within a few days, I noticed a significant reduction in the number of lawn-damaging insects. The effectiveness is definitely noticeable, though I'd say it works around 80% of the time in my experience.While it's not flawless (what product really is?), I've found that it delivers much better results than the other insect killers I've tried. I especially appreciate how easy it is to apply—just spread it out evenly, water it in, and you're done. There's no complicated setup or mixing like with some other treatments. The granules also seem to hold up well in the rain, which is a big plus for me.I did notice a few persistent pests here and there, but overall, my lawn looks healthier, and I'm not dealing with as many insects chewing through my grass or plants. For the price, this is a great solution, and I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for an effective insect killer without spending a fortune.

This wasn't working on my front yard. I sprayed it and it didn't do anything. I took it to me back yard after it sat for a while and it works great. No bugs in the back yard until after it rained. Wish it lasted longer.

Worked great. Last summer there was a flea infestation outside here in Florida. The cat likes to lay on the porch, which is screened in and he got infested with fleas. I had to treat him, the house and the yard. I used this on 10,000 sq ft of grass and it worked great.Be careful when spraying this product. Obviously don’t do it on a windy day and if you have to do it when it’s windy then make sure the wind is at your back. You should probably wear a mask and eye protection as well.

Really good to clean my plant from bugs
