If you want to use the same product for both indoor and outdoor flea treatments you should consider purchasing our Outdoor/Indoor Flea Kit. This kit contains Onslaught which is a broad spectrum insecticide which can be used as a broadcast spray for both indoor and outdoor infestations. The kit also contains Martins IGR which will help break the breeding cycle of the fleas for long term control. You must vacuum indoors prior to the first treatment and then vacuum daily for 14 days to help eliminate some of the flea eggs and flea debris that the pupae feed on. Outdoors you should concentrate on moist, shady areas and areas where the animals spend time resting. After 14 days a retreatment may be needed to eliminate any left over fleas (the kit comes with enough product for repeat applications). Your dogs must be treated with a product that is labeled for flea control on animals.
The products in our Outdoor/Indoor Flea Kit are probably our most popular products for outdoors and will work for all insects including fleas. It is safe to apply if kids and pets use the yard and at the same time very effective. It is also safe enough for inside the home and is labeled for over 80 different pests.
In most cases, you do not need to treat the entire 2 acres. You need to concentrate on moist, shady areas and those areas where pets spend a lot of time resting. Typically, each Outdoor/Indoor Flea Kit will treat up to 30,000 sq ft.
Fogging is not usually the best option for flea control. Fogs work best for flying insects and exposed insects like roaches. For flea control, you will want to use a hand pump sprayer for indoor and outdoor applications. We recommend our Indoor/Outdoor Flea Kit if you would like to use the same product for both areas. The kit includes 1 pint of Onslaught insecticide to kill the active adults 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. Be sure to vacuum immediately before the indoor application and every day for 14 days after the application to help speed along the flea elimination. Outdoors you want to concentrate on places where your animals spend time resting and on moist shady areas where fleas like to develop. After 14 days you should repeat the application to get any late-developing fleas. Be sure all of your pets are out of the area while you do the application and they can safely return after the areas have dried.
We recommend applying the products in our Outdoor/Indoor Flea Kit for the treatment of fleas and roaches. This kit will treat up to 1/2 an acre. For the treatment of fleas, apply once every two weeks indoors and outdoors. You will want to make at least two applications outdoors and indoors. Inside you should vacuum daily and discard the bag after each use or empty the cannister in a trash bag outside the home. We recommend applying a professional roach bait gel in the areas indoors where you are not spraying the solution. The products are pet safe if used as directed on the labels. Please let us know if you need anything else. We are always happy to help!
Yes,Onslaught Insecticide and NyGuard IGR can be mixed together in the same spray applicator and applied inside and outside once every two weeks for treating for fleas.

You can apply the mixed solution with a pressurized hand-held sprayer or a hose-end sprayer. This kit provides enough product to cover up to 1/2 acre yard.
Demize EC mixed with an insect growth regulator would be a good idea if you have a light or heavy infestation. Demize EC does not have a residual so it does not keep killing like another insecticide would. It is recommended that you mix Demize EC with Nylar IGR and Conquer EC to get quick knockdown, long residual control of adults and up to 210 days of insect growth regulation.
We would recommend using the Outdoor/Indoor Flea Kit. It can be used indoors and well as outdoors. For your first treatment, you will use 0.5 fl. oz. to 1.0 fl. oz. per gallon of water of the Onslaught. You will mix 1 fl. oz. of the Martins IGR (insect growth regulator) in a gallon of water as well. These products are safe once they are dry. You will do this treatment, vacuum daily for two weeks and then do a second treatment with the Onslaught only.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
We would recommend using the products in our Outdoor/Indoor Flea Kit. It includes an insecticide called Onslaught and an insect growth regulator called Martins. The Onslaught is labeled to kill over 200 insects and is safe to use inside and outside. Martins will impede the reproduction of the roaches, fleas and ticks. Treatments should be performed by the applicator when the children and pets are not in the area. They can re-enter whent the solution dries completely. You should apply the products once every three months to indoor crack and crevices and outdoors monthly unless you are treating for fleas. If you are battling fleas, you will spray once every two weeks outdoors (intial treatment after 1-2 days of mowing) and indoors you will vacuum (even hard surface floors) daily for 14 days after your initial spray and then spray your second treatment 14 days later. If the roaches have made their way inside, we recommend applying a professional roach bait gel to the cracks and crevices that have not been treated with the insecticide (cabinets, under sinks, etc) every two weeks. I have included a ant, roach, flea and tick control articles below for additional reference. Please let us know if you need anything else.
Talstar is a great product, but will degrade much faster in sunlight than the product in our outdoor flea kit, Onslaught. For outdoor flea control you should strongly consider our Outdoor Flea Kit. This kit contains Onslaught which is a broad spectrum insecticide which can be used as a broadcast spray for both indoor and outdoor infestations. The kit also contains Martins IGR which will help break the breeding cycle of the fleas for long-term control.
