    Q
    Will Demon Max protect the perimeter of my home from Brownbanded and American Roaches in addition to Termites?
    I am hoping for an all in one treatment. I use Demon WP in my home and love it.

    Q
    Does Demon Max stop working after it dries?
    I have just heard that it stops working after it dries and it only kills roaches or bugs when it's wet...
    A

    No, Demon Max does not stop working once it has dried. This is a residual product, which means it will continue to kill insects after your application has dried. It will provide approximately a 30 days residual outdoors, and a 90 days residual indoors.
