Just reading up that I might not be able to purchase Talstarone or the chemical bifenthrin in VT. Does anyone know of a substitute that can be used for svb's. i was able to get talstarone last year and it worked great. Any suggestion? Thanks for the help. John

Talstar is now off-patent so the generic market is kicking. I'm selling Menace (also 7.9% Bifenthrin) for less than the wholseale distributor cost of Talstar.
Or is this a State registration issue?

Steve, I believe this might be a state regulation issue for VT. I was reading on one website that it could not be shipped to NY or VT. Just wondered if it was just that website?

I can confirm the New York thing. What with a Socialist in office in VT I'll wager the same applies there too. Bummer.
Try Spectracide in a retail garden center. Look for the active ingredient "lambda-cyhalothrin".

Thx Steve. I will look into a different chemical if that is the case or try an alternate route. LOL

It really bugs me when a very low-toxicity chemical becomes restricted for political reasons.
