  • Asked by Jerry from Brainerd,mn.
    04/03/2015
    Q
    What is the amount of Demon Max used for mosquito control?
    I'm reading the reviews on your product and seeing 1/2 oz. and 1oz. Used per gallon of water we live in Mn. The Mosquitos can be extreme in the summer months.
    A
    The rate you saw of 1/2 oz per gallon is the correct rate per the Demon Max label for mosquitoes. While it does say you can use it at 1 oz per gallon for harder to kill insects like Scorpions, it is not recommended at that rate for mosquitoes. Try to limit moisture areas or standing water on the property as much as possible, spray not just the top but also the underneath side of leave of bushes, trees and other dense foliage on the property where mosquitoes harbor and breed, and consider mixing in an IGR like Nyguard IGR to help stop the reproductive cycle.

    Q
    Ordered Demon Max do I need anything else to kill the eggs? The ants are dying but they keep coming
    A
    The ants keep coming, because Demon Max will only kill the ants coming in contact with the treated area. It will not stop the colony. Depending on what type of ant they are you could use our Complete ant kit.

  • Asked by Deborah from Sarasota Florida
    01/19/2015
    Q
    Is Demon Max safe to be applied around dogs?
    I'm having issues with fleas in my yard I live in Sarasota, FL. Most of my yard has a lot of sand mixed in with my grass. I have 2 Jack Russells and I need to know what I need to apply and how to apply this with having my dogs around. Do I need to spray early in the morning and let it dry completely first before I let my dogs out into my back yard? Should I also do my front yard too since my backyard is the only place it is all fenced off? Please help!
    A
    You will want to keep your dogs out of the area during the Demon Max application and until it completely dries. They can re-enter the treated surface areas when the water has discipated. You will want to mow the lawn 1-2 days prior to treatment and the second application should be applied 2 weeks later. You can apply Demon Max with any pressurized pump sprayer or backpack sprayer. If the dogs have been on the front lawn then you should treat there in addition to your backyard.

  • Asked by Miss from New Orleans, La
    01/10/2015
    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.

    A
    Demon Max will kill any type of cockroach that crosses a surface that the product has been sprayed on in accordinance with the product label.

    Q
    Am I able to spray Demon Max inside?
    I work in a fresh fruit producing plant and need to be able to spray inside sometimes. Normally I use Essentria Ic3 but am finding it hard to come by. Will this product work like Essentria Ic3?
    A
    Demon Max can be sprayed indoors if you are treating for certain pests. It is an oil based product and does have a very strong smell. If you are looking for something that is closely related to Essentria IC3, we would recommend EcoVia EC. It is made with natural plant oils. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    Q
    Can I use Demon Max for Bed Bugs?
    I have been recommended this product for my bed bug problem in my home. However, I do not see the pest listed on the label. Is there something I missed reading, or will Demon Max not work for this? Thanks in advance.

  • Asked by George from Seattle,
    07/30/2014
    Q
    Can you mix with Suspend Polyzone for perimeter outdoor coverage?
    I would like to mix max strength Suspend Polyzone with max strength Demon Max for all outdoor applications?
    A
    We would not recommend mixing Suspend Polyzone and Demon Max. They are both insecticides. You will use one or the other. If you are looking to add more of a kick to your insecticide, we would recommend using ExciteR Pyrethrin Concentrate. This will give you a faster knockdown, but it does not have any type of residual effect. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

  • Asked by Scott from Terrell, Tx
    07/09/2014
    Q
    I have a 20 gal tank. How many oz of Demon should I add to treat my yard??
    I have a 1 acre yard. I'm having a grasshopper problem this year. Nothing seems to work for more than a week. I was hoping Demon would last a little bit longer in the yard.
    A

    Demon will last up to 30 days on outside surfaces depending on the rain and sun exposure but is not actually labeled for grasshoppers.    

    Talstar P would be a good choice for grasshopper control and will last up to 30 days as well. You should start applications before the grasshoppers have a chance to hatch for best control. You should thoroughly spray your lawn and water in the application with about a .25 in of water to help the product get past the thatch layer and into the soil where grass hoppers actually develop. If you already have grasshoppers you can use Talstar P at the highest usage rate of 1 oz of product per 1 gallon of water for the quickest knockdown. Use sufficient amounts of water to help the product get to the soil layers.

    Q
    Can you treat with Demon Max on flowers without killing them..have mulch that is infested with ants?
    A
    Demon Max will not kill flowers, but may leave an oily residue. Demon Max will kill ants that come in contact with it, but not eradicate a colony. For ants in mulch we recommend using Niban bait. NIBAN Granular Insect Bait is a moisture-resistant bait that can be used indoors and outdoors to control ants, silverfish, roaches, crickets and more.

    Q
    How soon after Demon Max is used can I begin with an aggressive weed and feed?
    I have an over grown lawn. Lot's of trees. Lots of insects, ants, etc. It has been mowed only. I want to debug it first and then begin the process of killing weeds and feeding the grass. The lawn is approx 54k sq ft. How much product is needed? How soon can I weed and feed?
    A
    Because Demon Max does not penetrate the soil you can weed and feed soon after your application. You should use 1/2 fl oz of Demon Max per gallon of water. To treat 54000 sq feet you will need approx. 3/4 gallon Demon Max.
