  • Asked by Albert from Laplata, Maryland

    Q
    Does Demand CS kill squash bugs?
    A

    While Demand CS could potentially kills squash bugs since it is a non-selective insecticide, you cannot use Demand CS on edible plants like a vegetable garden. We have many other products you could use for squash bugs on edible plants, such as Triple Action or Pyganic Gardening.

    Q
    Will mopping reduce the effectiveness of Demand CS
    The exterminator came to my home for an ant problem and applied drione dust and on top of it demand cs all around my appartment, not in the cracks but rather along the wall on the floor about 1-2 feet from the walls. Since it left a lot of mess, and I have a baby, I want to clean up and feel at home again, but I don't want to reduce the effectiveness too much. Can I vaccum and mop the floor? If I mop the floor, will the product stay effective? Thank you so much
    A

    Drione Dust should only be applied to cracks and crevices in areas where it will remain undisturbed.  It should not be used in open living areas, or in areas accessable to people or pets.  Mopping over areas where Demand CS has been applied can remove the residual the product leaves behind once dry.

    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.

    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
    First, can this be applied by a Gas Powers backpack sprayer/fogger? Second, does it kill Mormon crickets?
    A

    Demand CS particles are too large and have the potential to clog the fogger. Demand CS and Exciter can be mixed together for mosquito control for use in a pump sprayer. Demand CS is not labeled for use inside of a fogger.

    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
    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.
