I have been using the active ingredient Cypermethrin for almost 5 years as an indoor and outdoor pest control product. It is a great chemical and does wonders to control roaches and ants. The residual effect is nice providing for less applications through the year. It also does not afffect my pets who have shown sensitivity to other pesticides.

Demon EC (Max)
By Lance on 06/26/2013
I have used this stuff for over 10 years; beginning in a rental house that had sat empty for over 3 years and was full of all manner of creepy crawlies. One application of Demon (the first time I'd used it) and they all died a quick and horrible death, leaving the house bug free and inhabitable. It even de-bugged a 18 year old mobile home I lived in while my current house was being built. It's rare for a product to work as well as advertised, but Demon is the real deal.

Best I have used so far.
By Stan on 09/08/2013
Out of all the products I have tried so far Demon Max has proved to be the best. As a landlord of 72 properties, I have tried many products over the years. Demon Max has been very effective and versatile. It has been mixed to do everything I encounter, RoAcHeS, fleas, termites, spiders and ants.

Highly recommend this product. I have been using Terminex services for years and it is quite expensive. I tried Demon Max and it works perfectly. Roaches are dead outside the house and never make it in. I only have to treat the outside perimeter of my home.

Demon in a bottle
By Denise on 12/07/2013

Found myself with a bug problem.....the ones everyone hates.....roaches. Tried numerous other products and ways to get rid of the dang things. Nothing worked!! I have children and remembered every horrible story about roaches in ears, noses, etc. Desperately searched online for answers and the consensus was Demon Max!! I ordered used as instructed for cleanout and holy demons, it cleaned them out and showed me exactly where the nest was. Rotting wood & counter in my kitchen!! Oh, I was freaking out but so very happy. Two weeks later followed up with maintenance strength and so far so good. I am not scared to walk in the kitchen nor am I fearing for my children to sleep. We are now onto the quarterly spraying cycle and am looking forward to staying free of those disgusting things!!! It does what it says!!

Barrier Treatment for Pests around Structures:
Apply Demon Max as a 0.1% emulsion (1/2 fl oz per gallon of water) to a band of soil and
vegetation 6-10 ft. wide around and adjacent to the structure. Also, treat the foundation of the structure to a height of 2-3 ft. Use a treatment volume of 2-10 gal. per 1000 sq. ft.
Higher volumes of water may be needed if mulch or leaf litter is present or dense foliage exists. House siding may be treated if boxelder bugs, elm leaf beetles, earwigs, silverfish
or other similar pests are present. Reapply every 1-3 months as pest pressure builds back up.

I have been using Demon around my yard and home the past 2 years, but I am wondering which would be more effective for overall bug control. I would like to be sure that I am blocking out termites at the same time too.

I see the concentration of the active ingredient is much less in Demon Max. Does that mean it is "weaker"?
I was wondering if this product will be safe to spray on grazing areas for horses. If not, would the Demand Cs be safe.

I read if treating for yellow jackets, use a garden hose spray attachment. Is this true, and how much do I use
Water bug/roach control for mobile home
Per the product label, you would mix 1/2 oz to 1 oz per gallon of water.
For indoors Apply as a crack-and-crevice or spot application to areas where these pests hide, such as baseboards, corners,storage areas, closets, around water pipes, doors and windows, attics and eaves, behind and under refrigerators, cabinets, sinks, furnaces, and stoves, the underside of shelves, drawers and similar areas.
Barrier Treatment for Pests around Structures:
Apply Demon Max as a 0.1% emulsion (1/2 fl oz per gallon of water) to a band of soil and
vegetation 6-10 ft. wide around and adjacent to the structure. Also, treat the foundation of the structure to a height of 2-3 ft. Use a treatment volume of 2-10 gal. per 1000 sq. ft.
Reapply every 1-3 months as pest pressure builds back up.
We also recommend using an insect growth regulator such as Gentrol IGR and a roach bait gel such as the Advion Roach bait gel for faster and more complete control. We also offer a Roach Bait Kit, that contains all of the components you need for a complete roach control program; Demon WP, Advion Roach Bait Gel and Gentrol Point Source

I have 2 kids and one dog and was wondering if this product would be safe to use indoors/outdoors with them in mind?
No, Demon Max is labeled to treat ticks only on cracks and crevices as directed on the product label. You should use 1/2 fl oz of Demon Max per gallon of water for tick control. Please click the link below for tick control products that can be applied to pets.

I have an older cedar sided home that attracts Carpenter Bee's by the hundreds each spring. So far I haven't found a product that will keep them away.
We have a acreage with water on three sides. I do keep the lawn to 3 inches, all leaves and sticks are always picked up at current time we have no pets. What is the mixture rate for killing Wood Ticks, does it also kill Deer Ticks. How long under normal conditions would a application for ticks last? How soon for a re-application? Can tree's be directly sprayed? After the kids and I have been outside we typically take three (3) to six (6) ticks off of one person. H E L P..

I have a quarterly spraying set up, but the scorpions start appearing before the 90 period is up.
