Be sure to concentrate your treatment on the sides of the structure where you get a lot of afternoon sunlight, and treat areas such as doorframes, window frames, under siding, and light fixtures. You can use Onslaught as a spot or crack and crevice spray in these areas inside the home, as well. Please see our Stink Bug Treatment Guide for more tips.
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.

Keep in mind that Onslaught Insecticide cannot be used on pecan trees or other edible plants.
