When it comes to professional pest control, the goal is simple: be as effective and efficient as possible. At PestNation, we're always testing and refining methods to give our clients top-tier results with minimal hassle. One question we hear often from homeowners and even newer techs in the field is:
"Can you mix Intice 10 with Talstar Extra Verge and still get results?"
The short answer: Yes, you can - and yes, it works.
Understanding the Products
Intice 10 Perimeter Bait is a granular bait designed to attract and kill ants, roaches, crickets, silverfish, and other crawling insects. It's formulated to be palatable and long-lasting.
Talstar Extra Verge is a broad-spectrum granular insecticide with a fast knockdown effect, used to treat a wide range of pests. It's often used for turf, perimeter, and ornamental pest control.
Why Mixing Works
Mixing the two doesn't neutralize their effectiveness. In fact, it enhances the treatment strategy:
Bait (Intice 10) draws the ants in and encourages them to take it back to the colony, targeting the source.
Residual Control (Talstar Extra Verge) handles the ants that may not be interested in bait or happen to be foraging through the treated area.
This combo approach creates a more complete perimeter defense, reducing both immediate activity and long-term infestations.
Application Tips
Use a granular spreader for even distribution.
Apply during dry conditions to avoid the bait breaking down too quickly.
Monitor ant trails before and after to gauge effectiveness.
At PestNation, we pride ourselves on blending innovation with proven results. This ant bait combo is just one way we stay ahead of pest problems. If you're dealing with stubborn ants or want a thorough inspection and treatment plan, give us a call.
