    Q
    Will Onslaught kill bird mites?
    A

    Onslaught will kill bird mites, but the problem with bird mites is finding the breeding source.  Onslaught may provide some relief, however many times mites will breed under carpet or in wall voids, where you cannot spray.  This is why treating for mites is very difficult and usually requires mult…

    Q
    Which one is better Talstar, Bifen IT or Onslaught?

    Talstar P and Bifen IT are essentially the same product, they are just made by different manufacturers. Talstar P was manufactured 1st and is known to be the "name brand" and Bifen IT is known to be the generic. Onslaught is micro-encapsulated and will last a little longer on outdoor surface…

    Q
    Why is Onslaught so much more than others like Bifen and Conquer?
    I did my research on the insecticide portion of my planned flea control program (will be mixing with an IGR). What does the Onslaught offer that products like Bifen, Conquer and Demise do not? The significantly higher price tag must be due to some increased benefits.
    A

    Each of the products you mentioned have different active ingredients, or different formulations and different manufacturers. So that we are comparing apples to apples, we will compare Onslaught and Conquer which both have the same active ingredient, Esfenvalerate and both are sold in pint size bottl…

    Q
    Can onslaught be used on bare floors?
    I want to use onslaught indoors against bird mites. Under the usage instructions it sounds like it can be sprayed on bare floors. I would want to spray it all over my bare floors and walls and carpet but I go barefooted a lot, so would this be a problem?
    A

    Yes, you can safely and effectively spray Onslaught Insecticide indoors as a floor broadcast for bird mites. Be sure to allow the floors to fully dry. Once the treated area is fully dry you may re-enter the treated area with bare feet safely.

    Q
    Is it safe to use a full ounce of Onslaught one week after application?
    I have recently sprayed Onslaught in my apartment twice for bird mites at 1/2 ounces per gal. each time with about 8 days in between with Gentrol the first time. Is it safe for me to use a full ounce next after another week?
    A

    According to the Onslaught product label, you can use Onslaught at the "heavy infestation" rate of 1 ounce per gallon of water every seven days. Gentrol is not labeled for mites and therefore is not recommended for bird mite infestations.

    Q
    I have mites, have them for a few years, what do you recommend, I use Suspend SC
    I can not see them or catch them, they craw on me and bite at times and at times go for my eyes, they like my feet at times. Suspend works a little but they keep coming back, and I have tried everything you can think of even moving. I have not talked to you for a few years and thought maybe you have found something that works better than suspend.
    A

    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 i…

    Q
    After spraying insecticide, how long do I need to wait before I can mop the floors and baseboards?
    Exterminator sprayed Onslaught (I believe) combined with Gentrol. I just purchased Bedlam to spot treat on my own too.
    A

    You did not indicate what pest you are treating for, but we assume you are treating for bedbugs because of the purchase of Bedlam. Bedbug treatments are mainly applied directly to cracks and crevices where these pests hide. Mopping or wiping down the baseboards should not effect the product that is …

    Q
    Is Onslaught safe around pets?
    I have two miniature dachshunds that stay indoors most of the time and two rottweilers that are on the outside. We want to treat our home for scorpions, wolf spiders, flees and other insects but want to make sure it is safe around our pets.
    A

    Onslaught is pet safe as long as you follow the product label. Be sure pets are out of the area while you are doing the application and they can return to the area as soon as it is dry.

    Q
    Will Onslaught kill wolf spiders?
    These spider's seem to be every where. In the year and a half that me and my wife have lived in the home we have found or killed over 200. Not that I'm actually keeping count but it seems every day I go into the basement there is a new one laying somewhere. I have also killed many in our yard while mowing. They are becoming rather large and I can see them going over twigs and see the grass moving as I mow. I bought a product at Walmart last summer and it seemed to help, I sprayed around the baseboards and the spiders didn't make it 4 inchs away before they were dead. But I can't seem to stop them from getting into my house. Will onslaught help or what product do I need?
    A

    Generally speaking, Onslaught will kill wolf spiders, but it does not offer a fast knockdown. Onslaught is micro-encapsulated and can take several hours to kill the spiders. We usually recommend Cyper WP because it offers a faster knockdown and the same residual as Onslaught and it can be used for i…

    Q
    Should I use Onslaught or Demand for bird mites?
    If I use Onslaught and Nylar for bird mites, it should be a good combination? How often should I treat? Can I treat a whole carpeted area and furniture? And of course, I know to do lots of vacuuming!
    A

    Yes, lots of vacuuming is required! We recommend Onslaught for bird mite control because it is labeled to spray over carpeted areas. You should not treat more than one time per month. We recommend using Sterifab for upholstered furniture such as couches and chairs. We really cannot recommend the Nyl…

    Q
    How fast does Onslaught kill bedbugs? Does Onslaught kill the bedbug eggs?
    A

    Onslaught is a micro-encapsulated product. Micro-encapsulated products can take a bit longer to kill insects because the capsules need time to dry out and crack open to release the active ingredient. Most insecticides do not kill bedbug eggs which is why it is so important to do follow up treatments…
