Demize Nylar IGR - Questions & Answers

Demize Nylar IGR and IGR's in general are very safe around children and pets because they only effect small insects that go through a complete metamorphasis like fleas and roaches.  You should always keep pets and children out of the area while you are treating and then allow them to re-enter once the product has dried which usually takes about 30 minutes.  I do not believe there would be any issues applying this product in your vehicle. 

The longer some concentrated liquids stay in a diluted form the faster they degrade, making them ineffective. Shaking the solution will not help the degraded products work any better. We recommend only mixing up what you can use at one time. Also, storing solutions in your sprayer will cause the seals and gaskets and other pieces in your sprayer to break down.

Demize Nylar IGR is a product that is meant to treat fleas and roaches indoors.  Although you could use it outdoors, it is not recommended because it is not formulated to remain effective when it is in sunlight.  It breaks down very quickly.  We do carry another IGR product that is formulated for outdoors and is photo-stable called Archer IGR.  It works the same way as the Demize Nylar IGR, which is to prevent adult fleas and roaches from reproducing.  These products are effective in slowing down populations, but you should mix these products with a insecticide for faster knockdown of adult insects such as Conquer or Onslaught.  You can mix the Archer IGR and one of the other insecticide products I mentioned in a one gallon hand pump sprayer and apply it over your yard and landscape.  All of the products mentioned can also be used indoors as well.

 

Indoor Flea Control

Outdoor Flea Control

Demize Nylar IGR will not work to keep centipedes out of your home. This product is an insect growth regulator that helps disrupt the breeding cycle of fleas and certain cockroaches only. Demize Nylar IGR is not an insecticide or an insect repellant. Demand CS would be a good choice to use around the outside of your home to eliminate centipedes. You should apply the product to door frames, window frames, places where utilities enter into the structure, around the bottom of the foundation and out onto the ground directly around the foundation. You can also limit favorable conditions that the centipedes need to thrive..

Remove Favorabe Conditions

• Fix leaky faucets or pipes and dry up wet or damp areas where centipedes thrive
• Remove outdoor harborages near the home that hold moisture (compost, wood, or leaf piles, etc).
• Store firewood off the ground at least 20 feet away from the home
• Water your lawn in the morning so that it will be dry by afternoon
• Do not over mulch flower beds, since soggy mulch is an ideal harborage for centipedes

 

Unfortunately, Demize Nylar IGR is not specifically labeled for silverfish so we cannot say for certain if it will work. We are not aware of an IGR that is labeled to prevent the growth cycle of silverfish

Nylar IGR terminates the flea life cycle and stops the development of the immature stages of the flea for 210 days preventing them from reaching the biting adult stage.  It does not contain an insecticide and does not kill anything directly.
