Yes, Demand CS is applied to lawns at the rate of 7ml per 1,000 sq ft. Treatments for chiggers should begin in May and could need to continue through the summer as new chiggers move into the area. Treating the entire lawn is of little benefit because chiggers avoid direct sunlight and normally will not infest areas that are mowed or otherwise well maintained. Focus treatment on the unkempt areas of the lawn and lawn edge. You can also use Demand CS to do a barrier treatment around the outside of your home and in your crawl space to stop pests from moving indoors.
Demand CS is not a systemic. As in, it will not leach into soil. It does not leach into soil like Imidicloprid products.
Demand CS should be applied when there is no rain the forecast for 24 hours after application. The outdoor residual of the product is up to 30 days. Heavy or prolonged rains can diminish that residual slightly.
