    Q
    Outside temperature where it is applied.
    Would extreme summer temperatures 110+ affect how long the product will be effective after mixing and spraying ?
    A
    Yes extreme sunlight/temperatures and other outdoor elements will affect how long the product lasts on the surface. The Onslaught is designed to hold up to the outdoor elements a little longer and better than other general insecticides so you should get at least 30 to 60 day residual out of the product after its sprayed.

    Q
    Is Onslaught FastCap Insecticide the best way to get rid of scorpions?
    We find scorpions in our house all the time in various areas. I have a 7mo. old grandchild starting to crawl and a small dog in the house. I can't take a chance on my grandchild being stung by a scorpion.
    A

    Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion Insecticide would definitely be the best option for your needs. It is specifically formulated to better target spiders and scorpions with a more thorough and long lasting coverage for these hard to kill pests. Keep in mind, no matter what product you are using for scorpions, you have to create a wider barrier for them than any other pest around your home. For general insects you would treat with a barrier around the foundation 2 feet up and 2 feet out. With scorpions you should be doing 2-3 feet up and 6-10 feet out on the ground. You can also spray inside around cracks and crevices, baseboard areas, and potential entry points such as around window and door frames and where plumbing meets the wall.  Also make sure to treat any landscape areas around your home that they would be prone to hiding in, i.e., mulch, bark, landscape timbers, rocks etc. You can review more information for protecting your home from scorpions in our article on Scorpion Control.

  • Asked by Rich from Worcester, Ma
    08/23/2015
    Q
    Will Onslaught Fastcap Spider and Scorpion Insecticide also work for springtails?
    A

    Yes, Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion Insecticide is labeled for springtails as well. You will use 1 fl. oz. per gallon of water. Because they are usually a garden pest, keeping springtails outside of your home is the most effective way to keep a large infestation from occurring. The best way to achieve this goal is to treat the exterior of your home with some kind of barrier insecticide. Make sure you spray around the perimeter of your home, windows, doors, etc. where the pests can come inside.

    Q
    Can I use my Stihl fogger with Onslaught FastCap outside?
    A

    Due to the particle size of Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion  we do not recommend applying with a fogger. Depending on what you are treating for please see our Fogging solutions.  You could use Onslaught in a mist blower that does not produce a true fog.

  • Asked by Carl from West Palm Beach
    07/19/2016
    Q
    Is there a knockdown for Black Widow and Brown Recluse spiders that is pet friendly once dry?
    We have a ton of black widow and brown recluse spiders on our porch and are trying to get rid of them, I have sprayed with other insecticides (Talstar P) and Suspend but I was wondering if there is any fast knockdown that I can use, we do have animals out there (dogs and cats) but they can be removed until it dries. The spiders are also located over our pool so I would imagine that some spray will get in there (What happens in that case, how long till the dogs can go in the pool)
    A

    A great contact and residual spray for spiders and other more aggressive pests is Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion Insecticide. Onslaught FastCap has both a fast-acting knockdown and residual activity. If you would like something that is all-natural, then I would suggest Essentria IC3 Insecticide, which does not have restrictions for use around bodies of water.

  • Asked by Brian from Gilbert, Az
    09/09/2016
    Q
    Is FastCap or Suspend SC better for controlling spiders, roaches and crickets outdoors?
    A

    Based on where you are located, the Onslaught FastCap would be a better choice for you. FastCap has additional active ingredients to allow for faster kill of target insects when first spraying, and it has encapsulated technology for better residual in heat and sunlight. We would recommend the newer Suspend Polyzone over Suspend SC.

  • Asked by Josue from San Tan Valley
    12/22/2016
    Q
    Can you please clarify the mixing instructions on the Onslaught FastCap label?
    I was wondering if you can explain why on the label it tells you to mix 7.93 ml per gallon of water, but then on the next column it says to use 40ml for 1 gallon?
    A

    The first column of the application rate instructions on the Onslaught FastCap label refers to the amount of water that is diluted into a gallon of water.  In this case, it is 1 oz or 7.93 mL.  The second column refers to the area over which that gallon of mixed solution should be distributed.  In this case, the second column is telling you that one gallon of mixed solution will cover 1000 square feet, which works out to be 40mL of mixed solution per square meter.
