Demon WP is only labeled to be used as a crack and crevice treatment indoors and as a perimeter spray outdoors. Spraying rodents as you mentioned with Demon WP is off label, therefore we cannot advise the product being used in such a way.
We have many products that work great for rodent control such as glue boards, snap traps, rodenticides and bait stations. Please refer to our Rodent Control Page for the best products to eradicate rodents. If you have any additional questions, you may contact a representative at 1-866-581-7378 Mon - Fri 9am-5pm EST.
As long as you read and follow the Demon WP product label there should be no health or safety issues for a pregnant woman or anyone else. Only people that are applying the products should be present at the time of the treatment, and all other adults, children and pets should be out of the room. Everyone can re-enter the treated room as soon as the area is dry and the room has been vented, which usually takes about an hour.
Demon WP would be a good option for you. This is a wettable powder that you mix with water and apply using a hand pump sprayer. It works great for flying insects like wasps. You can spray the underside of the deck with the mixed solution. This will not repel the wasps, but when they land on the surface they should pick up the product and die within a few hours. Demon WP can also be used as a perimeter spray around the house. You may also want to take a look at our article on How to Get Rid of Wasps for more information on treating and preventing wasps.

Moping the floors should be done prior to applying Demon WP Insecticide and you should avoid cleaning up the residual left behind on sprayed areas. When applied as directed onthe label you are only spraying along baseboards and in cracks and crevices inside not the entire floor. You should avoid mopping these edges as this will remove the residual product.

These products should not be mixed together. There is no valid reason to mix Demon WP/Cyper WP and Talstar P/Bifen IT together. Talstar P/Bifen IT is a synthetic pyrethroid and Demom WP/Cyper WP already contains a synthetic pyrethroid, so there would be nothing to gain by mixing these products together. Making a pesticide too strong can actually backfire. Areas that are treated with this overly concentrated spray will be repellent and insects will simply avoid the treated areas prolonging the infestation.
Demon WP is not recommended for bird/rodent mites because it is not labeled for mites and also because it can not be broadcast sprayed. Below you will find out best recommendations for bird/rodent mites control:
It is important to be absolutely sure you are actually dealing with bird mites. Have the suspected bird mite identified by a reputable source, such as your local cooperative extension office or a reputable pest control operator. Treatments will vary for different pests. Treatment for say bedbugs is much different than the treatment for bird mites. If you do indeed have bird mites, you must first find the source of the infestation, usually a bird nest or a dead bird on or in the home. Removal of the infested nest or bird and a thorough cleanup is necessary. For treatment in the home, we recommend you frequently vacuum all carpet and upholstery and dispose of the bag or vacuum contents in a sealed bag outdoors. Spray Sterifab on couches, chairs and other upholstered furniture where you may spend time resting. Use MotherEarth Dust in all cracks and crevices around the perimeter of the room. Apply a thin coat of MotherEarth dust to rugs and carpets. Rake (not sweep) nap back and forth, causing dust to enter rug or carpet. Let product sit overnight. Repeat application as necessary and vacuum every 3 - 4 days for effective control. MotherEarth dust does not have a fast knockdown, it can take several days for insects to die after they contact the dust. Onslaught can be used for a faster knockdown. Thoroughly apply as a fine particle broadcast spray using a hand pump sprayer to infested rugs and carpets and other cracks and crevices around the perimeter of each room. Put all clothes through the dryer on high heat to help kill mites and their eggs.We have had many customers use the above recommendations with great success. Most customers report that it can take several months to get rid of all of the mites. Finding and removing the source of the infestation is very important and is the key to getting rid of the mites for good.
