  • Asked by Kitt from Phoenix, Az
    12/13/2016
    Q
    How quickly will Onslaught Insecticide kill a roach?
    A

    Onslaught Insecticide does not kill on contact. The active ingredient releases slowly over time, allowing the pests to pick up the residual and carry it back into wall voids, cracks and crevices, and other spots where they may hide, so that it can be spread further through the population. We do recommend that you also use an IGR (insect growth regulator), such as Gentrol IGR, along with your insecticide to also stop the roaches' reproductive cycle while the insecticide is working to kill the adult population.

  • Asked by Emily from Minnesota
    06/17/2014
    Q
    Will Onslaught work for bird mites? Is it safe around baby?
    A

    Onslaught is the only product that we have that is labeled for mites in general and is safe when used as directed.  Children should be out of the area while you are doing the treatment until it dries, typically 30 mins to an hour.  Below is our advice on mites:

    It is important to be absolutely sure you are actually dealing with mites. Have the suspected bird mite identified by a reputable source, such as your local cooperative extension office or a reputable pest control operator. Treatments will vary for different pests. Treatment for say bedbugs is much different than the treatment for bird mites.  Removal of the infested nest or bird and a thorough cleanup is necessary. For treatment in the home, we recommend you frequently vacuum all carpet and upholstery and dispose of the bag or vacuum contents in a sealed bag outdoors. Spray Sterifab on couches, chairs and other upholstered furniture where you may spend time resting. Use MotherEarth Dust in all cracks and crevices around the perimeter of the room. Apply a thin coat of MotherEarth dust to rugs and carpets. Rake (not sweep) nap back and forth, causing dust to enter rug or carpet. Let product sit overnight. Repeat application as necessary and vacuum every 3 - 4 days for effective control. MotherEarth Dust does not have a fast knockdown, it can take several days for insects to die after they contact the dust. Onslaught can be used for a faster knockdown. Thoroughly apply as a fine particle broadcast spray using a hand pump sprayer to infested rugs and carpets and other cracks and crevices around the perimeter of each room. Put all clothes through the dryer on high heat to help kill mites and their eggs.We have had many customers use the above recommendations with great success. Most customers report that it can take several months to get rid of all of the mites. Finding and removing the source of the infestation is very important and is the key to getting rid of the mites for good.

    Q
    How to treat a very heavy infestation of fleas on acreage?
    We are having our house and small yard treated by a local exterminator for heavy flea infestation. They recommended that we spray our outdoor dog runs, out-yard and barn yard with Archer, Onslaught and Exciter (which we have ordered from you) using our 25 gallon gasoline powered spray rig behind our tractor. Do we mix all three products together, or use them separately?
    A
    Onslaught, Archer IGR, and Exciter can all be mixed together following the instructions on each product label for dilution rates.

  • Asked by Thomas from Cumberland, Ri
    10/18/2011
    Q
    How soon will combination of Onslaught and Gentrol start working on modest indoor flea infestation?
    Judging from the label I assume that combination is allowed to be used as a broadcast, correct?
    A
    You should see results within 24-48 hours of the application. You will notice that the larger adult fleas are gone but you will continue to see the small immature fleas as they come out of their cocoons. These immature fleas will not be able to reach sexual maturity because of the Gentrol and will eventually succumb to the effects of the Onslaught. You will need to vacuum every square inch of carpet immediately before the application and for every day after the application for about 14 days. After 14 days a repeat application should be made to get rid of any stragglers. You should note that Gentrol IGR cannot be used outside as it is not photostable. If you do need to treat inside as well as outside for fleas you can use Martins IGR mixed with Onslaught and you can purchase them together in our Outdoor/Indoor Flea Kit.

  • Asked by Ted from United States
    08/28/2013
    Q
    What is your VERY BEST mite control product? Have had moles in yard.
    A
    We appreciate your questions. There are many different types of mites. If you have a mite like spider mites, one of our best products for spider mites is Onslaught. Onslaught Liquid Insecticide is micro-encapsulated, meaning that after the product is sprayed, the active ingredient is released slowly over time, producing long-lasting residual control of insect pests. Please review our Mite Control page.

    Q
    How long do I have to wait to wash my kitchen floor after Onslaught has been applied for roach remediation?
    A
    You should be able to wash your floor right away as Onslaught is only supposed to be sprayed into cracks and crevices around the door frames, window frames, places where utilities (cables, pipes and wires) enter into the structure and around the baseboards for roach control.

  • Asked by Robert from Hesperia
    11/12/2018
    Q
    What is the recommended way to apply Onslaught Insecticide to a tree?
    Weeping willow to fight flat headed borer
    A

    Onslaught Insecticide would be applied as a full coverage foliar spray applying to the point of drip but not run off as directed on the product label for the listed borers only.  Bayer Advanced 12 Month Tree & Shrub Insect Control Landscape Formula can be applied to any non-edible trees for soft and flat headed borers and would be a better option for it’s systemic properties before the insects become an issue.

  • Asked by James from Long Beach, Ca
    09/02/2014
    Q
    Is Onslaught the best product for killing bird mites in/around sparrow and dove nests?
    I have a problem with bird mites in/near my house. Now that nesting season is wrapping up, I want to poison the mites and clean out the nest debris before blocking the areas to prevent future nesting.
    A
    We do not recommend treating any bird or dove nests directly. Onslaught can be used in surrounding areas on the property that you would like to treat for this insect and other listed pests. You can apply monthly on the exterior of the structure for control but the nesting sites that are near the structure should be removed to fully eliminate them. The source of the infestation is very important and is the key to getting rid of the mites for good. Thoroughly apply as a fine particle broadcast spray using a hand pump sprayer to infested rugs and carpets and other cracks and crevices around the perimeter of each room. Put all clothes through the dryer on high heat to help kill mites and their eggs. We have had many customers use the above recommendations with great success.

  • Asked by Lily from Huber Heights
    06/23/2016
    Q
    Does Onslaught kill chiggers?
    If not, do you carry another product that will?
    A

    Onslaught is a great product for chigger control. Treatments for chiggers should begin in April/May and could need to continue through the summer as new chiggers move into the area. Treating the entire lawn is of little benefit because chiggers avoid direct sunlight and normally will not infest areas that are mowed or otherwise well maintained. Focus treatment on the unkept areas of the lawn and lawn edge. You can also use Onslaught to do a barrier treatment around the outside of your home and in your crawl space to stop pests from moving indoors.
