Spectracide Triazicide Insect Killer for Lawns, Granules Kill Lawn-Damaging Insects, 10 Lb

I used the entire bag on a 5,000 sq ft Texas lawn early March (I plan two yearly applications) and lightly watered it in as directed. It does have a pungent odor that dissipates in a few days. Granules turned whitish afterwards but did not stain concrete, etc. Crickets left the lawn immediately and did not live long afterwards. Did not have a single fire ant mound unlike other years after the rains. Beetles don't make it far before they go belly up. Was not directly effective on mature scorpions, I still have to deal with that "manually" but does take food sources away. I will put one more treatment down June-July to deal with the Japanese beetle plague around here but so far so good. Still have friendly spiders and a healthy lizard population as I was concerned how this might affect them long term.

If this product was not quite as expensive it would be great i think. I use this every year on my entire yard. I put it out by hand so that i can get good coverage (i prob use way too much, but i don't wanna pick up fleas %26 ticks just walking thru my yard). The product states it works all season %26 i will not disagree. Sum times i will reapply very near the end of summer(1st application right as it starts to get warm) just to make sure. i rarely have an issue with fleas %26 ticks in my yard, and i also rarely see any snakes in my yard( i do not know for sure that is due to this but i don't think it hurts), if it was a bit cheaper it would be even better, but nothing is less expensive these days

I just made some holes in the top of a plastic container to make a shaker applicator that is fine for my small yard. I had a serious problem with the many kinds of Florida ants all seeming to have become immune to the usual top brand sprays and I was skeptical that this would pay off but it does work, it just is not effective until it rains on the granules unless you spray them with a hose. Big bag, small yard means this will last me several years. I have not noticed any effects on the many frogs and lizards in my yard. They are all still happy. There seems to be no dust when pouring the granules and that is a plus for your safety.

We use this on our lawn every spring to get rid of any pests in our grass harmful to the grass or our pups. Safe for pets if used as instructed. We've used this for years and it's highly effective. Would highly recommend.

Put this on the perimeter of my house, outside, and works wonders. I do it every other month. Humidity makes bugs happy

Hard to find but far superior to any other product. I used a competitor because I couldn't find this. The other product was minimally effective. This worked overnight.

Effective insect control — It kills a wide range of lawn‑damaging insects (ants, grubs, fleas, ticks, sod webworms), which means you see results quickly and consistently. Fast‑acting formula — Many users notice reduced insect activity within days, especially with proper watering‑in. Easy application — The granules spread evenly with a standard broadcast spreader, making it simple to treat large areas. Good coverage — A 10 lb bag typically covers up to ********* sq ft, making it cost‑effective for medium to large lawns. Affordable compared to alternatives — Spectracide is usually priced lower than premium brands like Scotts or Bayer, while still delivering strong results. Visible lawn improvement — When insects are eliminated, grass often recovers quickly, giving a healthier, fuller appearance.

This insecticide is easy to apply with a broadcast spreader. I have used it before and it works great for the ants %26 other bugs that live in the leaf debris in my yard. This is my goto insecticide for pest control and I would recommend it to others in need of a yard insecticide. It takes almost no time to work and keeps the bugs, ants, fleas %26 ticks out of the yard and the house. I've been happy with the brand Spectracide for my pest control issues both inside the house and outside in the yard, for several years now.

Pest control tech checked black circle on our lawn. Said it may be fungus or cricket moles. Bought this product from a friend's recommendation. They said it worked for them, so thought it would work for us. The black circle seems to be fading away. So it seems to be working. Will continue checking.

Spectracide Triazicide Insect Killer for Lawns works TOO well. I have rock landscaping. I noticed a few outdoor roaches in my rocks and of course I wanted to quickly eliminate them. I purchased this product after doing my research. I followed the instructions per the bag. About five minutes after applying the water, my nightmare began. Numerous roaches and every other bug began emerging from my yard towards my front door, climbing the walls, etc. I was terrified! I began stomping on the roaches to avoid them getting into my house. This went on for about two - three hours, then they dwindled. The next day, there was one dying roach on my porch and lots of smashed ones. I will never do this again. I appreciate the fact that the product truly works, but I would have appreciated a warning. There may have been a warning on the bag that I failed to read. Therefore, I give this product four stars, removing one star due to the FEAR factor.
