Above and Below — Allectus Controls Both Grubs and Surface Insects in a Single Application.
Shaw's 21-0-5 50% SurfCote Allectus is the most comprehensive insecticide fertilizer in the Shaw's lineup — combining two proven active ingredients in one bag for complete, dual-action protection against both soil-dwelling grubs and surface-feeding insects. Allectus pairs Imidacloprid (0.125%) — the systemic neonicotinoid that targets white grubs, Japanese beetle larvae, and billbugs in the root zone — with Bifenthrin (0.100%), a pyrethroid that provides rapid, residual control of surface insects including chinch bugs, armyworm, sod webworm, ants, and other above-ground pests.This dual-AI approach means your lawn gets protected from every angle: Imidacloprid moves down through the soil to reach grubs feeding on roots below, while Bifenthrin provides a protective surface barrier that controls visible, fast-moving surface pests before they can establish. Backed by a high 21-0-5 analysis with 50% SurfCote nitrogen, the fertilizer component delivers both immediate and extended turf feeding for season-long color and density.
There is no direct Andersons equivalent for Shaw's Allectus. If your customers need comprehensive above-ground and below-ground insect protection, this is an exclusive offering through Champion Mulch.
