  • Asked by Michael from Richmond Virginia
    06/17/2014
    Q
    Do you have a product labeled for chigger control?
    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 unkempt 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.

  • Asked by Jerry
    08/02/2011
    Q
    How long until I see results from Onslaught?
    I sprayed onslaught around the kitchen baseboards last night for ants that were coming from under the foundation. They are small and really slow. I believe they are regular house ants. There are even more ants today. How long will it take for this insecticide to work? It doesn't seem like it helped.
    A
    Onslaught is a micro-encapsulated product which means it is a time released formula and can take a little longer to kill insects than other products. Ants can take several hours to a day or so before they die after coming into contact with treated areas. Onslaught will not stop ants from coming into an area but it will kill the ants that do. Onslaught does not transfer back to the colony. We always recommend that you use an ant bait gel or granule in addition to the insecticide spray since ant colonies can be very large and they can keep sending out worker ants. The bait will be carried back to the colony and fed to the other ants and this will help speed up the ant elimination. We also recommend spraying outdoors around the perimeter of your home to eliminate ants before they move indoors.

  • 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 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.

    Q
    We have a chair shop where we keep our dog 100'x30' and its infested with fleas what do we do to kill these.
    It is very very bad what would be the best treatment to trea
    A
    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
    What is better to kill carpet beetles? Demand CS or Onslaught?
    What is better to kill carpet beetles? Demand CS or Onslaught? We also want to mix in Nygaurd or Gentrol. What is the better combo of the four products to control these things. Is there a fogger we can use in our attic and outdoor shed to help eliminate these?
    A
    Onslaught would be better to treat carpet beetles. Onslaught can be applied in a broadcast application over carpeting. As well as, cracks, crevices, baseboards, and areas the beetles may hide. You want to mix the solution at 1oz Onslaught to 1 gallon water. The Nyguard would be the best IGR to use as it has the longest residual. You can use either the Onslaught in the attic and shed for residual, or if you prefer a fogger you could use our Pro Control Plus-Total Release Fogger.

  • Asked by Paula from Ohio
    06/17/2019
    Q
    Will Onslaught Insecticide or Fastcap kill chiggers faster? Also, since it only kills on contact, how do we obtain long term control? Will this harm pollinators?
    A

    Onslaught Insecticide and Onslaught FastCap will both do a great job for chiggers. Onslaught FastCap would be the faster acting product due to its one of a kind formulation made of Exponent brand synergist, Esfenvalerate, and Prallethrin. This product does not kill on contact. The active ingredients release 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. The product label does state that this product can be highly toxic to bees and other pollinating insects exposed to direct treatment or residues left on blooming crops or weeds. The best way to reduce the chance of the product affecting the bees, butterflies and beneficial insects is to spray later in the day when they are not active and are back in their homes/nests and try to avoid blooms of flowers and plants they would use for pollination.

  • Asked by Steve from Castro Valley, California
    03/09/2017
    Q
    Should I use Suspend SC or Talstar P to treat for rat mites?
    I have already sealed up entry points into attic and have trapped the rats, but I still have rat mites in my home and want to know if Suspend SC or Talstar P is better for spraying around the inside and outside of the home?
    A

    If this has been an ongoing problem we would first recommend to get the pest identified by an entomologist. If it's recent and you've had the pest identified, then we would recommend that you use Onslaught Insecticide. Onslaught is specifically labeled for mites.  You will use 0.5 oz per gallon of water around baseboards and cracks and crevices. Before your application, it is strongly recommended to thoroughly clean and vacuum the areas of activity first.

  • Asked by Michael from Dayton, Oh
    05/22/2017
    Q
    Is Onslaught FastCap anymore effective at killing bed bugs as opposed to regular Onslaught?
    A

    Onslaught Fastcap would offer a faster kill to those sprayed directly during application but once dry would effect bed bugs at the same rate as the regular Onslaught.  This is due to the added actives in the Fastcap.
