Talaris 50 WSP Fungicide (4 x 8 oz Packets) by Atticus (Compare to Cleary 3336) - Controls Dollar Spot, Brown Patch, Rusts, Blights, and Molds - Thiophanate-Methyl 50%

This product is terrible opened the package and powder was everywhere, all the bags were torn what a joke and a mess. Not to mention the smell. Do not buy this pay more for the name brand liquid

This worked when prop and azoxy failed to eradicate brown patch in my fescue lawn. Beware it smells like a corpse, and stunk up the inside of my backpack sprayer for some time afterwards

The good news first. This product works. I fight an annual battle with GLS and brown patch in my St. Augustine lawn. In past years I’ve used Clearys mixed with Chlorothalonil with consistent success. This year I switched from Clearys to Talaris, and haven’t noticed any difference in the effectiveness.That bad news is that the Talaris powder is very difficult to work with vs the liquid Clearys. It’s to the point where I am actively questioning whether the lower cost is worth the additional hassle. I’ve ordered this product twice. Upon opening, both packages contained a considerable amount of free floating powder that had escaped from the individually packaged bags inside. The flimsy plastic material used to package the four 8oz bags of powder is comically inadequate. If you order this product, part of your planning must include being careful when you initially open the package, as well as having your own container(s) to store the remaining product after first use. The product packaging is not meant to be resealed. Once opened, using it for long term storage is not an ideal option.Finally, as others have mentioned, this stuff smells terrible. When working with/mixing this product, you’ll want to be outdoors rather than in the garage. Don’t even think about messing with this stuff when inside the house.

I applied this to my infected holly bush and within one week I saw improvement in the health of the bush. After a second treatment, I noticed new growth where it was previously bare.One note of caution, I mixed this in my garage in a small batch sprayer…it smells awful and the smell lingered for a few days. The second application was mixed outdoors with a better outcome. This was my bad and does not reflect poorly on the product.

This came as an envelope with 4 plastic bags of product. As other buyers have described, roughly 20% of the powder was loose in the envelope. All of the plastic bags had leaked. The powder also clings to the plastic bags. I was probably only able to get bout 70% of the powder into my sprayer. To make things worse, the powder smells terrible, worse than a dead animal. I still can't get the smell out of my garage.

Like others said the bags were busted with powder everywhere. Huge waste and loss of product. Don't even know how it could be returned. Also if this stuff is as toxic as they say then you would need a full hazmat suit to even open the package.This stuff will actually cost you more even though it's the lowest price. Most of it is waste.

You need to know what you are doing.

When I opened the sealed bag, one of the WSB had torn and there was powder everywhere. Impossible to handle according to safety instructions. Ruined all the other bags. Couldn’t tell if more were torn, I just threw them all away.
