    Q
    What product would be good to use for brown recluse spiders?
    Bought a house last fall which turns out to have confirmed brown recluse. I have some Demon WP left but need to re-order. Should I stick with Demon for inside and outside control or switch to Onslaught Scorpion & Spider? I'm also planning on ordering/using Talstar PL granules outside. Thank you!
    A
    Demon WP is labeled for spiders, however with using the same product for a long period of time insects can become resistent to that active ingredient. You can solve that problem by simple switchning to another product with a different active ingredient such as Onslaught FastCap Spider and Scorpion Insecticide which is also labeled for spiders.

    Q
    Why are one pound jars of Demon WP not being made anymore?
    Why are one pound jars of WP not being made anymore? I am a pest tech and can only get my hands on WSP formulations.
    A

    The bulk 1 lb jars of wettable powder have been discontinued due to issues with misuse as well as reports of the product being accidentally inhaled upon opening the jar.  They are now only available in pre-measured packets like Demon WP or Cyper WSP

    Q
    Is it possible for Demon WP to be transferred through the AC into my home?
    I have very sensitive skin. My fiance sprayed the outside of the house 24 hours ago with Demon WP.We also have a portable AC window unit (the kind with the hose that sticks out the window). It blows directly on me at night. I am worried that the powder will be sucked up by the AC unit and blown onto me. Yes I know this sounds ridiculous but I get severe rashes if simple hand soap is not properly rinsed off my skin so I do not want to chance something even harsher that kills live organisms. Is it a possibility the powder could be transferred and blown into the home via AC? Thank you!
    A

    Provided the product was used according the the product labeI instructions it would be highly unlikely as Demon WP is mixed with water and then sprayed outdoors. There should be no interaction with your AC venting in order for this to be able to get indoors like that.

    Q
    Will Demon WP hurt my horses?
    I have really bad fire ants in my pasture .
    A

    Demon WP is not labeled to be used in pastures. Extinguish Fire Ant Bait is labeled to be used in pastures where horses graze.  You can use this product on pastureland, however you must remove all grazing livestock for at least 48 hours after application. Then they can return to the land after 48 hours.

  • Asked by Bill from Jacksonville, Fl
    09/13/2016
    Q
    Will Demon WP work for ants?
    A

    Demon WP will kill just about any insect, including all types of ants. However, Demon WP will only kill the ants that walk over where you treat around your home. It will not take care of the queen and other ants back where the colony is. The key to ant control is to use a product that will not kill the ants around your home on contact like Demon WP will, but a product that they will take back to the colony and kill the queen and other ants at the source.  Our most popular product for this is Termidor SC. Or, you can use ant baits that the ants will eat and take back to the colony.

  • Asked by Ch from Sf Bay Area, Ca

    Q
    Can Demon WP be used for bark beetles?
    I would like to protect our ailing oak from further bark beetle damage. Can I spray the trunk once per month in the dry season, May - October? I'd guess they would only come in contact with it when they land or when they emerge (which is too late). Is there a better product, perhaps more of a repellent?
    A

    Unfortunately, Demon WP is not labeled for bark beetles. We would recommend a product like Tengard SFR One-Shot Termiticide. Per the product label to prevent an infestation to trees and woody ornamentals, you would thoroughly spray the bark but not to the point of runoff.

    Demon WP should be mixed and applied using a pump sprayer or a backpack sprayer.  It likely would clog a plastic spray bottle.

  • Asked by Ted from Auburn

    Q
    Does Demon WP kill on contact or does it take a few minutes?
    German roaches
    A

    Demon WP Insecticide is not a contact kill; this product is a residual and can take up to one week before seeing results. We would suggest doing treatments every 21 days while treating for an active roach infestation.

    Please take a look at our Roach Guide for tips on how to treat and prevent roaches in the future.
