    Q
    Does Demand CS work to treat Pine Bark Beetle?
    I have been trying very hard to spot the actual beetles but have not seen any. I do however, see a bald patch of trunk on my black pine with what looks to be 3 woodpecker holes. Some branches have all brown needles. In cypress trees nearby, I see trails of yellow sap seeping out and some branches there already turned brown. I'm so so sad as this black pine is a very fancy Japanese bonsai style tree and I might have lost a few small trunks with the brown needles.
    A

    An insecticide such as Demand CS can be used to prevent infestations of bark beetles such as pine bark beetles, however usually this treatment is not effective once trees are already infested. You want to spray down the trunks of nearby trees to protect them from infestation. You may need to consult a local arborist if you are unsure whether the trees can be saved. You can usually trim and destroy infested branches, however keep in mind that this pest will usually infest trees that are already weak from some other existing issue (disease, drought, etc.).

    Q
    If a bird eats a dead roach sprayed the night before with Demand CS, will it harm the bird?
    Sprayed yard around 10pm, next morning there was a staggering amount of dead or dying roaches all over. Came home from work around 5pm and 95% of the carcasses were gone. As I sat there bewildered a little bird landed no more then 5ft. from me, grabbed a dead roach and flew away. So please tell me this will not hurt the birds! Thanks for your time! I forgot to mention
    A

    There is such a small amount of the active ingredient in Demand CS that actually gets on the bugs before they die that it will not affect any animals that consume the dead bugs

    Q
    How fast does the Demand Cs work to kill? I sprayed on some ants and it had little to no affect.
    A

    When using Demand CS, it can take minutes to hours to kill insects. The active ingredient needs time to work through the follicle of the insect to the central nervous system.

    Q
    I mopped the area where Demand CS was sprayed with water even before its dry.
    Could it have caused any contamination?
    A
    If you mopped over the treated area while it was wet or dry you will need to reapply the Demand CS. Demand CS is water based so you will need to rinse your mop with large amounts of water to rinse off  any product that may have been mopped up.

    Q
    Is Demand CS poisonous to horses?
    We have a stink bug problem and want to try Demand CS around our house. Is it also safe to use around our barn where the horses are?
    A
    Demand CS is labeled to be used in barns and other animal housing structures but the animals must be out of the area while the application is being made and they can return to the area once it is dried. Demand CS should only be used in cracks and crevices and care should be taken to make sure over-spray does not contact feed and water supplies or feed/watering dishes. Be sure to read the Demand CS product label for complete application instructions.

    Q
    Spraying for bedbugs today, the exterminator sprayed my mattress seams and inside the mattress. Is this okay?
    Noting a hole in the side of the mattress where the handles had ripped the fabric, he stuck his sprayer in and gave the interior a pump. Are there any possible health risks associated with sleeping on this mattress now or long-term, and if so what are they? He was careful to ask me to remove all bedding and pillows. (It is a very small apartment, and temporarily it is not well ventilated as the building exterior is being painted. I can maybe stay with friends for a few days if you think that's wise.)
    A
    Demand Cs is not labeled for that use. We recommend using it as a crack and crevice treatment. Please contact the manufacturer Syngenta at 866-796-4368 for further advisement.

    Q
    What is better to use to control sewer bug problem outside around house, Demand CS or Suspend SC?
    I have been noticing sewer bugs (water bugs...EEEWWW) outside my house on the side walk or driveway when it is real humid out (1 -a few weeks ago & 1 -this morning) and I am worried they are going to come in my house. I was reading up on the different pesticides you have and all the reviews & I am not sure which one to get between Demand CS or Suspend SC. They both seem really good from the reviews but I wanted your opinion on what you think might work best.
    A
    Both products have an active ingredient that is classified as a synthetic pyrethroid, so they really are very similar in the way that they work.  Suspend SC contains the active ingredient deltamethrin and is a bit more versatile when it comes to some pest treatments. Demand CS contains the active ingredient lambda-cyhalothrin, and it is micro encapsulated which will make it last a little bit longer in outdoor applications so would be the better product for you in your situation.

    Q
    Does the Demand CS help to keep ladybugs from infesting a camper?
    Every year ladybugs infest our camper. We purchased a new camper and do not want them to infest it.
    A
    Yes, the Demand CS would be a great option to use around any entry points on your camper to keep both ladybugs and a large variety of other insects out. You will want to spray once a month through at least November to make sure they are not getting in to overwinter.

    Q
    What to use for Scorpion problem close to a swimming pool?
    I have a scorpion problem in my backyard, and am concerned that the pesticides I use may runoff into my swimming pool and make the pool unhealthy to swim in. There is only about three feet between the pool and the exterior wall of the house in places, and on the opposite side of the pool there is an elevated flower garden secured with stacked bricks that may see runoff into the pool, as well. How concerned do I need to be about something like Demand CS or CyKick running off into the swimming pool?
    A
    Demand would be a great product to use in the areas you specified. Your are not spraying the water directly and only spraying around the plants, cracks and crevices. Run Off is not an issue as long the treated area is allowed to dry before rain. Such a small amount tof active ingredient is left after dilution. Only enough to harm small insects. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

    Q
    Can I use Demand CS in Canada on private property without a license?
    A
    Unfortunately, we are not familiar with Canadian law regarding the use of commercial pesticides like Demand CS by homeowners without a pest control license. Although, we do know that here in the United States, homeowners are able to use commercial grade insectides on their own property. Please be sure to check with your local government regarding regulations and/or restrictions.

  • Asked by Bill from Paradise, Northern Calif

    Q
    Looking for a general purpose outdoor spray to keep insects out of the house like spiders, ants, millipedes,
    And anything else with 6,8 legs and,or wings
    A
    Demand CS would be a great choice for general pest control. It will hold up well to UV rays and rain and because it is a micro-encapsulated it works a little bit like a time released formula.  Of course it will only kills those pests that contacted a treated surface so flying insects will always be a little bit harder to kill versus the crawling ones but Demand will take care of just about anything!
