Q

I ordered Onslaught from you before and I am using it outside my home and my rental house to keep bugs at bay.
Is the Onslaught the BEST product I can be using to do this job OR is there something BETTER I can use? I want to use the BEST product to KEEP BUGS OUT OF THE HOMES I own. If you think there is a better product you can sell me for this, can you please let me know what to buy? Thanks so much.

Onslaught would be a great choice because it is labeled for over 200 insects and has a 30 day residual outdoors. It also can be applied to indoor crack and crevices once every 90 days. You should treat around all the cracks and crevices (inside and out), window and door frames, a few feet up the siding of the homes and the lawns. Without knowing exactly what insects you are treating for it is hard to give you the best treatment advice but this is a professional strength product that will cover numerous flying, crawling, biting and stinging insects. Just make sure you are mixing and spraying as directed on the product label.

Our Indoor/Outdoor Flea kit would work great! The kit includes 1 pint of Onslaught insecticide and 1 x 4 oz. bottle of Martins IGR to stop flea growth and reproduction. We've included these products because they are easy to use, effective, and safe to use in your yard and inside the home. Both products are concentrated and need to be mixed with water before use. You can apply the mixed solution with a pressurized hand-held sprayer or a hose-end sprayer. This kit provides enough product to cover a typical yard (1/4 to 1/2 acre).

Q

Can I use Onslaught Insecticide in a fogger? and if not what can i use in a fogger for Fleas?

A

Onslaught cannot be used in a fogger, it may clog it. To treat for fleas we recommend the Outdoor Indoor Flea kit. This way you cover all stages of the flea life cycle. Fogging will only kill the fleas that are out at the time of fogging.

Q

Can I use Onslaught to bait for yellowjackets?
I live in the country so tracking down the nest is impossible. In the past when I've used your product I found that the jackets eat the bait w/o your poison in it but as soon as I put the poison in the bait they won't eat it. IE a few nibble but then all avoid. I tried lower doseages as well

A

Yes, you can add 1/4 tsp of Onslaught to 12 oz of bait to put into the bait stations for eliminating yellow jackets. We carry the product and the stations in our Alpine Yellow Jacket Kit.

Q

I am looking for a poison that can be added to meat to kill yellow jackets only. Do no want to kill non aggress

A

Onslaught is currently the only EPA approved insecticide for baiting yellow jackets. It is not selective though and anything that contacts or eats the treated meat could die as well. We recommend mixing 1/4 teaspoon of Onslaught per 12 oz. of bait.

The key is to continue the applications as directed and eliminate as much moisture off the property as possible. They are attracted to areas of moisture and it is good that the mulch was reduced.

Onslaught SC is a superior product to treat for yellow jackets whether in the yard or under eaves of roofs, patios, porches, etc. It is also labeled for over 200 other insects and great to use as part of a general pest control program inside and outside the home. For stinging insects such as yellow jackets, wasps, hornets, bees, etc, the best time to treat is at night when they are less active. Mix Onslaught SC at 1oz per gallon of water and spray a 2-3ft radius around the entry point in the yard working your way towards the opening. Next, adjust the nozzle on your sprayer to a pin stream spray. Apply the liquid concentrate directly to the interior of the nest. We alway receommend having a can of Wasp Freeze while treating and spray any emerging yellow jackets directly for a fast kill. With this combination you are killing the adult yellow jackets and leaving behind a residual to kill any hatching yellow jackets. Another option is to dust the opening of the holes with an insecticide dust labeled for yellow jackets such as Tempo 1%. This is applied with a bellow hand duster directly into the holes and will be a direct contact as they enter and exit the nest and also treat any newly hatched yellow jackets. It usually takes 3-4 days to fully kill a nest but if needed, reapplications can be done as necessary. Please take a moment to review the How to Treat for Yellow Jackets Article located at the bottom of the Yellow Jacket Control Page.
