    Q
    Is the safe to use on Pastures?
    I was wondering if this product will be safe to spray on grazing areas for horses. If not, would the Demand Cs be safe.
    A
    You do not want to use either of these products in pastures. Please contact you local extension office to determine how to best treat the pest you are targeting.

    Q
    What is the ratio of Demon Max for mosquitoes and how does it compare?
    how many oz of demon max do you use per gallon of water for residual mosquito control, how long does it leave a risidual? and how does demon compare to bifen it?
    A
    You should use 1/2 fl oz of Demon Max per gallon of water for mosquito control and you will need to reapply once per month to maintain control. Bifen IT and Demon Max will have very comparable results for mosquito control though Bifen IT is water based and non-staining and is more widely used by professionals for mosquito control.

    How does this product work for killing paper wasps? or is there something better. Thanks
    A

    Demon Max is very good with treating for wasps and other insects. You will use 1 fl oz per gallon of water. Be sure to spray in the areas that they will come in contact with the insecticide. This can be used every 30 days as needed.

    Q
    I have about 2 acres two spray. I use a 20 gallon tank with electric pump. Can I use Demon Max? I have a wild bee hive so want it to be safe.
    A

    Mavrik would be the only option we have that (once dry) would be safe for bees. We would not recommend Demon Max since it is non selective even when dry, so it could kill the bees.

    Q
    How long the smell remain after using demon max and what's the best igr to use when treating roaches
    A
    Demon Max is an oil based product so the residual and smell will last longer than most liquid insecticides. Depending on where you used the product, indoors or outdoors will depend on how long the the odor will stay around. Demon Max is preferrably used outdoors for this reason. The best IGR to use for Roaches indoors is Gentrol IGR. You will mix 1oz per gallon of water in a hand pump sprayer

  • Asked by Miguel from Porterville

    Q
    Which is better Bifen IT or Demon Max?
    A

    Its hard to say which one is better with out knowing exactly where and what you are treating for. Both are going to offer a good kill and a long lasting residual though initially Demon Max may have a faster kill because it is oil based. On the other hand because Demon Max is oil based it could stain old paint/siding and it does have an odor. Bifen IT is known to be super gentle on most plants (do not use on edible vegetation). Both products can be used indoors and outdoors and both products are safe to use in houses with children and pets.

    Q
    With the Demon Max being oil based, will it stain siding?
    Since this is oil based will it stain siding that is 5 years old? I am dealing with a large infestation of boxelder bugs and Asian Beetles. I do have boxelder trees on the foliage line my property backs up to. .25 acre lots. Houses about 15 feet apart. Would my neighbors need to combat bugs also? Would also like to combat mosquitoes. Do you have any suggestions before I buy this product?
    A

    If you have older siding and are wanting to treat for boxelder bugs and other overwintering pests on the side of the home, as well as mosquitoes and various other insects, we would not suggest going with the Demon Max. The oils in the product are very likely to stain the side of the home. We would suggest going with a product like Talstar P instead since it will dry clear, there will be no risk of staining or discoloring, it is low odor and can be used for overwintering pests as well as mosquitoes and others. Talstar is mixed between 0.5 - 1 oz per gallon of water and can be used monthly or quarterly for pest control. If your neighbors are not treating then yes that will certainly make your applications a bit more of an uphill battle so try to encourage them to treat as well or see if they will allow you to treat the main areas of insect populations as well. You can spray trees and bushes for boxelder and beetle control to help reduce the numbers that make their way to your home.

    Q
    Will Demon Max work with roaches, and can I mix it with other products?
    A

    Demon Max is labeled for roaches, and you may mix this product with an insect growth regulator such as Gentrol for better control. You do not need to mix Demon Max with another insecticide. When applying these products indoors, we recommend also using a professional roach bait gel in areas where you cannot spray. You may want to look over our Roach Control Guide for more information on treating and preventing roaches.
