    What do you recommend for treatment of Powderpost Beetles in NY state?
    Is Onslaught or borate based products the best product to treat for Powderpost Beetles? How long is each effective?
    A

    We do have Nibor D, from the same manufacturer as Boracare, which could be applied as a dust, spray, or foam. You would drill into the wood and inject the spray, dust, or foam into the places where we see activity.

  • Asked by Rebecca from Plymouth, Mi
    04/10/2017
    Q
    How often should I apply Onslaught for stink bugs? Should it be applied on exterior only?
    A

    We recommend applying Onslaught Insecticide every 30-60 days in late Summer and Fall until you have a hard freeze. 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.

  • 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.

  • Asked by Lin from Charleston, Wv
    09/23/2017
    Q
    Will Onslaught kill flea pupae?
    How long will it remain effective against fleas on a concrete basement floor?
    A

    Onslaught Insecticide is meant to eliminate adult fleas. It is recommended that you use an insect growth regulator, such as Precor IGR, to eliminate the other stages of the fleas. An IGR is a birth control for fleas and will stop them at whatever life stage they are in. It is recommended that you re-treat with Onslaught Insecticide every 10-14 days until you no longer have flea activity. 

    Please check out our Flea Guide for tips on how to treat and prevent fleas in the future.

  • Asked by Raul
    05/12/2018
    Q
    Is Onslaught good for aphids sprayed topically or applied as a systemic by root drench?
    A

    Onslaught is a pyrethroid insecticide, so it is not a systemic that you can apply as a root drench to infested plants. You can apply Onslaught as a topical spray on ornamental plants to treat for aphids. Be sure that you are getting thorough coverage on all sides of the leaves, especially underneath where insects like to hide. For a systemic treatment, we would recommend an Imidacloprid product such as Fertilome Tree and Shrub Systemic Insect Drench.

    Q
    Can you spray Onslaught in TV if there is no power? If so, safe time to wait 2 plug in?
    Moving son from Florida to Michigan and he has been battling roaches and I on't want to bring them to my house...
    A

    Onslaught Insecticide should be used in anything electrical whether used or not.  We recommend that you/he thoroughly inspect things while moving and unpack the boxes right away and get rid of them since roaches can hide very well in the boxes. You can also put out Gentrol Point Source Discs to help prevent any breeding of juvenile roaches that may have ridden over in the boxes.

    Will Onslaught stain hardwood floors if mixed to the manufacturer's label?
    A

    If used according to the labeled instructions, Onslaught Insecticide should not stain your floors.  Be sure you’re only spraying around baseboards and using a light misting spray.  You do not want to over spray and cause the product to run or pool.  Over application can cause potential damage to floors.

  • Asked by Brandy from Huntington, Texas
    10/30/2018
    Q
    How much Onslaught Insecticide do I use for heavy flea infestation?
    indoors/outdoors
    A

    Onslaught Insecticide can be mixed at 1 oz per gallon of water when treating a heavy flea infestation. We also recommend using an insect growth regulator like NyGuard IGR to stop immature fleas from reaching sexual maturity. Flea treatments do not work overnight. Over the next couple of weeks you should start to see a reduction in the flea population. We recommend a repeat treatment after 14 days to help get rid of any of the stragglers that may have been missed with the first treatment. Severe infestations may require 3 or 4 treatments in 14-day intervals.

    Q
    Can Onslaught be used on hardwood floors for bird mites?
    I am treating bird mites. I have all hardwood and tile floors, no carpet. I'm using onslaught.
    A

    Onslaught Insecticide should dry clear but would not be broadcast across hard floor surfaces.  Treatments should be directed to cracks and crevices around these rooms.  Test in a small area to ensure no staining when used along baseboards. You can use Steri-Fab Insecticide on upholstered furniture and fabric. Please check out our bird mite treatment page for tips and ideas on treating and preventing bird mites.

  • Asked by Bruce from Boerne, Texas
    11/28/2019
    Q
    Is there an over-wintering insect application that can be used on a Pecan tree for bagworms?
    Bagworms have become the number one problem that needs to be controlled. I have raked all leaves, husk, and all other after harvest. I try to cut off all bag worms that can be reached (under 25') and spray the trees twice a year with Onslaught Insecticide with little soap.
    A

    For bagworm control, there is not an insecticide that will be effective once the bagworms are in their protective cocoons. You will need to treat in early summer before the bagworms are in this state for insecticides to work. You could use Fertilome Triple Action or Natural Guard Spinosad for bagworms on pecan trees in spring or summer. Keep in mind that Onslaught Insecticide cannot be used on pecan trees or other edible plants.

    Onslaught can be used poultry houses and according to the product label, animals will need to be removed from the area being treated, cover feeders and waterers. Do not allow insecticide to drift onto animals and keep animals out of the treated area until it has fully dried.

    Q
    What's the percentage for Temprid when mixing 1oz per gallon with Onslaught?
    A

    You would not mix Onslaught Insecticide and Temprid FX together for any reason or any pest. These are two different residual insecticides that could be alternated every 30 days if needed, but tank mixing would not be correct or effective.
