Q

I sprayed termite insecticide all over my room. Is It safe to stay in the room after spraying?

A

Noramlly, termiticide is not labeled for use indoors. If you are referring to Demon WP insecticide, it is only labeled to be applied to cracks and crevices indoors. If you applied to areas outside of that please contact the manufacturer Syngenta 1-800-334-9481.

Q

How much demon per gallon of water for roach control?
Any issues with use around caged parrots?

A

You would use 1-2 Demon WP Insecticide water soluble packets per gallon of water for roach control. Use the higher ratio for a clean out and lower concentration for maintenance. You would want to remove the Parrot from the treated area until it dries completely.

Demon WP is labeled to kill certain pests on contact, as well as leaving a residual. We would recommend giving the product some time to work properly. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Demon WP can be used inside as directed on the product label. Insecticides alone will not eliminate an infestation though. You will need to use it in conjunction with a high quality roach bait gel and an insect growth regulator as roaches like to hide and may not readily come into contact with treated surfaces. You can find both DemonWP, a roach bait gel and an IGR sold together in our Roach Control Kits. The roach bait gel should be placed directly into cracks and crevices around counters, sinks, drawers and cabinets. This will make the gel available to the roaches and inaccessible to your pets and children. The Gentrol Point Source do not actually contain any insecticides, just an insect juvenile growth hormone mimic. These discs can also be placed out of reach of children and animals and are readily used in sensitive locations such as hospitals and day cares everyday. Severe infestations may take several months to eliminate no matter what products you use. Sanitation will be a key factor in eliminating the roaches. Please take a few minutes to read the hints and tips in our German Cockroach article to learn more about eliminating this pest.

I want a residual product for brown recluse. Would the Demon WP or the Onslaught Fast cap work better?
Also using glue traps.

A

Demon WP and Onslaught FastCap are both labeled for spiders. Demon WP does leave a white residue and once it gets washed off, it is no longer working. Onslaught FastCap will dry clear and leave a longer residual since once it is dry, it stays. The only problem with using any type of insecticide with…

Demon WP and Onslaught FastCap are both labeled for spiders. Demon WP does leave a white residue and once it gets washed off, it is no longer working. Onslaught FastCap will dry clear and leave a longer residual since once it is dry, it stays. The only problem with using any type of insecticide with spiders, is that they need to actually walk through it in order for it to kill them. You will need to spray the areas where they frequent, around doorways, corners of walls, etc.

Q

How do I clean my cabinets after using Demon WP?
My hubby sprayed the kitchen backsplash and countertops for ants. I have used soap and water, but I am still getting a yellow tinted paper towel while drying. How do I clean Demon from my countertops and backsplash?

A

When using Demon WP on any surface you can use soap and water to get the product off of where it was applied. This should be sufficent to get the residue off. If you are having issues we suggest contacting the product manufacturer Syngenta at 866-796-4368.

Absolutely. Demon WP is labeled for outdoors as well as indoors and on your lawn too. It is safe for use indoors when used according to the product label. We always recommend that you treat while kids and pets are outside or in another room. After the treatment is dry, which usually takes about 30 minutes, it is perfectly safe for kids and pets to re-enter the room.

Demon WP contains one of the most effective active ingredients for roach control, and it should work just fine for most roach infestations. If you have a current infestation however, insecticide sprays alone may not be enough. It is recommended that you use an IGR such as Gentrol to help halt the breeding process and a roach bait such as Advion Roach Bait Gel to help eliminate the roaches in places that cannot be sprayed. We have both of these products available in a our Roach Control Kit #1. If you want to try a different spray insecticide, Phantom would be a good choice. Phantom is an insecticide that kills cockroaches (and many other pests) through a powerful non-repellent, transferable active ingredient. Pests cant even detect Phantom, so they walk right over it and then spread it to other insects hidden behind walls or in their home colony, killing other pests they come in contact with. The one draw back to Phantom is that pests can take around a week to die after coming into contact with treated surfaces. Sanitation also plays a key role in roach infestations. Even the best products on the market cannot over come poor sanitation. Please read the following article to learn some hints and tips on sanitation : Cockroach Quick Tips

The biggest factor in pesticides not lasting a long time is definitely UV light. Each product will have different life spans depending on whether it is a powder like Demon WP, or liquid like our popular Talstar P product. Demon WP and other wettable powders should give a good 30 day residual even in direct sunlight. There are some liquid that will last 60 to 90 days, but they do not have the punch that Demon WP has. Treating weekly might be a little much, but since stink bugs are so bad right now we would recommend treating every 2 to 3 weeks at least since the numbers of stink bugs are so high right now.

The best product we have for the larger cockroaches, or American cockroaches, is a product called Demon WP. Demon WP is a wettable powder that you mix with water in a one gallon sprayer. Wettable powders are easier for the roaches to pick up on their bodies, and they pack more of a punch which is what you need when treating for larger roaches. Since the larger roaches come from the outside, you want to concentrate your spray on the outside of the house. Spray 2 to 3 feet up onto the foundation and 2 to 3 feet out onto the ground. You can also treat inside the rooms where you have issues. Demon WP is not only labeled to treat roaches, but almost any other insects you may have a problem with including spiders, ants, silverfish, etc. You should apply once a month for best results.
