Fast-Acting Surface Insect Control with a Potassium Boost — When You Need Results Now.
Shaw's 0-0-7 Talstar delivers rapid, broad-spectrum surface insect control through Bifenthrin (Talstar) at 0.069% — a proven pyrethroid insecticide widely used in professional turf management for its fast knockdown and lasting residual activity. Unlike soil-systemic insecticides that target grubs below ground, Bifenthrin provides immediate contact and residual control of insects at and near the turf surface, making it the go-to product when active surface pest infestations need to be addressed quickly.
The 0-0-7 carrier is unique in the Shaw's lineup — it contains no nitrogen whatsoever, making it the ideal insecticide choice when turf conditions make nitrogen application inappropriate (peak summer heat, dormant lawns, over-fertilized turf) or when a standalone potassium boost is desired alongside surface insect control. The 7% potassium supports turf strength, heat tolerance, and disease resistance without any nitrogen load.
Talstar (Bifenthrin) is one of the most widely used insecticides in professional lawn care for surface pests — effective against chinch bugs, armyworm, sod webworm, fire ants, cutworms, billbug adults, mole cricket nymphs, and dozens of other pest species.
