No, Demon WP Insecticide is not labeled for bed bug control. Bed Bugs require a combination of products in order to fully eradicate an infestation as well as repeat treatments every 7-14 days. The best route to go is one of our Bed Bug Control Kits that has all the products you will need to treat. Which kit you choose depends on the number of rooms you need to treat. Treating with an insecticide alone will not eradicate bed bugs. Each kit is designed to treat a different size home or number of rooms, so you can choose the one best suited to the areas that are affected by the pest problem. The kits come with all the products needed to do a complete treatment in all the places bed bugs can hide and enough product to complete roughly 4 repeat applications. Repeat applications are necessary to fully eradicate them. Every home and infestation is different, so you will need to make diligent and meticulous treatments with the products every 7-14 days until you can go 30 days in a row with no signs of live bed bugs and no new bites on the occupants of the home. You can view our step by step guide on How to Get Rid of Bed Bugs for more tips and information.

Demon WP is labeled for mosquitoes though it will leave a white residual that is visible on darker surfaces. According to the Demon WP product label: For mosquito control, apply as a general structural perimeter spray to landscape plantings, turf, and building foundations to control mosquitoes. Yards or other frequented areas enclosed by landscaping can benefit from the creation of a mosquito barrier to reduce invading mosquitoes by the treatment of perimeter vegetation. For best results, apply Demon WP at recommended rates in 2-5 gallons of water per 1,000 sq. ft. Higher volumes applied result in better coverage and, as a rule, will improve control.
For mosquitoes, key is to apply to the underside of leaves on trees/bushes which is where the adults lay during the day, as well as in shady areas. You would not treat entire areas of the lawn that are in full sun as it is not habitable for them there.
