Are you a licensed applicator?

I've switched to Bifen IT. It is just as effective on SVBs and much cheaper. Combined with Merit 75 it is a knockout.

AGREED. I've been licensed since 1988 and we use generic Talstar with imidacloprid too.

Id like to know too. Last year I only saw one SVB but the squash bugs were horrible.

Talstar when I shot them with it they crawled for about 10 min and fell off twitching. A good squash bug is a dead one IMOP.

they died a drunken haze. After they fell off they twitched for about 5 min then dead. I watched the first time I saw them and sprayed'em. Laughed the hole time I hate those stinking little bugs.
