    Been out of the applicator business for about 5 years. However, we used to use Dursban "pro". Had great results, but it has a strong odor.

      thanks SG, im going to look into that.
      just think that it would be a great add on that could sell every month down here.

        The use of chlorpyrifos products(Dursban, Lorsban, Killmaster, etc) in and around the homes has been illegal for the past two years or so. There are some industrial site, golf greens, pre-construction wood treatment, and right-of-way uses left. Also, you can use ant bait stations that have it in the bait.

        Diazinon is on its way out. Not sure what each state has decided, but for now there are some products that allow use on home lawns/gardens. None is making any more of it and those uses will go away as the supplies disappear.

        Bifenthrin and cyfluthrin products seem to be the more popular registered products in Oregon for lawn/ornamental flea control
