    Q

    Our dogs like to chew rawhide on the carpet in the livingroom. Is it safe for them to do it on the carpet which was treated with onslaught?
    A

    As long as the Onslaught treated area has had time to dry, it's safe for the dogs to chew rawhide on the carpet.

  • Asked by Gretchen from Portland, Or

    Q
    Just moved to OR and need a good general pest control solution for my home.
    Don't care about being "green", just want them dead and out of my house! Have seen a couple of bugs in kitchen and one in the bathroom, I have no idea what they are (bathroom one looked beetle-ish). I have a 16 month old baby and two chihuahuas and need to be able to spray around them.
    A

    Without knowing exactly what you are treating for, it is hard for us to make a product recommendation that will fit your specific needs. We do carry a product called Onslaught and it is widely used for general pest control and is labeled for over 200 different insects. You will mix and apply according to the product label instructions when the children and dogs are not in the area. Once it is dried completely, they can re-enter the treated areas. Please read the product label for mixing and application instructions. Please click on the link below for the contact information to your local cooperative extension office for a pest identification.

  • Asked by Maurice from United States
    05/12/2014
    Q
    Can Onslaught and Malathion be tank mixed?
    We have a 1/4 acre home garden and 9 citrus trees in Florida. We also have 4 USAR dogs and our sandy soil creates the opportunity for a significant flea and chigger problem. We were wondering if Onslaught could be tank mixed with Malathion for use in our new garden and on/around the citrus trees (also the shrubs near the house) to compliment our successful use of Onslaught in the 1 acre dog yard and around the dog training equipment.
    A
    Onslaught can only be tank mixed with a synergist or an IGR but not with other insecticides. Also, Onslaught is not labeled for use on or around any edible vegetation whether it be a garden or fruit tree.

  • 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. Most customers report that it can take several months to get rid of all of the mites.

  • Asked by Robert from Michigan
    05/31/2014
    Q
    How does the product react to freezing temperatures over the winter months?
    A
    The Onslaught Insecticide should be stored at moderate temperatures and shouldn't freeze. However, if freezing should occur then dethaw at room temperature. Do not heat to speed up the dethaw process. It is hard to say whether the Onslaught Insecticide needs to be replaced besides decreased efficiency.

  • Asked by Tara from Snohomish, Wa
    05/24/2016
    Q
    Will Onslaught need to be applied more often in a consistently rainy area?
    We are in the Pacific Northwest and get rain almost daily. Is there a better option for rainy areas? Using it outdoors only, around home perimeter and flower/grass areas, and trying to kill mosquitoes, spiders, gnats, flies, wasps, etc.
    A

    Onslaught can last up to 60 to 90 days on outside surfaces but it can be applied as often as every 7 days if needed.  Generally most people apply once a month and it is still effective in rainy areas.

  • Asked by Anae from Peru, Ma
    03/28/2016
    Q
    Will Onslaught kill cheyletiella mites?
    We are battling with cheyletiella mites on our dogs, but I think they get reinfested from the environment. Is Onslaught the right product to kill those mites on the floors and around the dogs' bedding?
    A

    Onslaught is not labeled for Cheyletiella mites and this type of mite does not live off of the host animal and do not infest the environment.  This mite is contagious by direct contact with other infected animals only. If a dog is constantly infested it could mean that an egg or mite was missed/still exists on the animal or they are being introduced from contact with infested animals.  We recommend that animals are seen by a veterinarian and treated according to the veterinarian's instructions.

  • Asked by Eddy from La Grange, Nc
    03/12/2018
    Q
    Can I use Onslaught Insecticide to spray indoors on carpet?
    A

    Treating carpets for general pests is not needed.  Only when you are dealing with a pest like fleas that infest carpets would you need to do so.  For general pest control, treatments should be directed to cracks and crevices inside as you should also apply a barrier outside around the perimeter.  We have a great video here that shows where to spray for perimeter and interior spraying.  Onslaught is a great option for them and is labeled for over 200 pests.
