    Q
    How long does Demon WP take to kill German roaches?
    I have been spraying Demon WP (every weekend) for a month now. There are less and less roaches. Now, I am just wondering how it works on them. Are they still able to lay eggs?
    A

    You should not need to spray indoors more than once a month for roach control if you are using Demon WP. Using Demon WP alone will not stop roaches from breeding and laying eggs. We recommend that you use an IGR (insect growth regulator) such as Gentrol to help stop juvenile roaches from reaching se…

    Q
    How can I get rid of lady bugs in my house?They are everywhere.
    A

    Demon WP is a great product for Lady bugs. Unfortunately, if you are dealing with them in your house right now you will only see limited results. Lady bugs move into structures to overwinter. They usually squeeze into wall voids, false ceilings, attics and other areas that are inaccessible to pe…

    Q
    How soon can Demon WP be washed off an area such as cement patios?
    A

    You should wait at least 24 hours before wetting down the patio. If you scrub the patio you will remove the Demon WP residual and will only have limited results.

    Q
    Does Demon WP harm plants?
    A

    Demon WP is labeled to spray on plants and lawns and should not cause any damage to them. That being said we still recommend that you test a one plant or a small area before broadcasting the spray as some plants can be sensitive.

    Q
    Is Demon WP a repellent?
    A

    Demon WP does contain a synthetic pyrethroid and synthetic pyrethroids are known to be somewhat repellent. Demon WP should not be used to repel insects away from an area, instead it should be used to eliminate insects that touch treated areas as the repellency wears off after a short amount of time.

    Q
    Is Demon WP safe for my 10 month old daughter?
    If my daughter was to touch the area I put this after it has dried and then licked her hand or something would she be ok?
    A

    Demon WP like any other product we sell is very safe as long as you follow the application instructions.  When you mix Demon or any other product on our site with water, the solution is only strong enough to kill small insects.  It would be advised to not apply where your daughter will com…

    Q
    Will Demon WP kill leaf cutter ants?
    A

    Demon WP will kill leaf cutter ants that are directly contacted with the spray but will have no result on the ants that stay in the nest. Leaf cutter ants can be a difficult pest to get rid of. The colonies are large and the ants make their own food so poison baits only have limited effects on thi…

    Will Demon WP kill dog ticks and do you ship to Hawaii?
    I recently noticed tiny ticks on my dog; just purchased Preventic dog collar from the vet but need to treat my yard.
    A

    Yes, we do ship to Hawaii. Demon WP can be used for ticks but it will leave a white powdery residue everywhere you spray. Talstar P would be a great choice for indoor and outdoor tick control. We also recommend adding an insect growth regulator such as Archer IGR to Talstar to stop the ticks from be…

    Carpenter bee started a hole, it's not big enough to enter. Can I plug the hole now without treatment?
    Type of wood is plywood, not yet stained. Do I need to varnish also to keep bees away? Thanks
    A

    Yes, you can plug the hole without treatment if the hole is not big enough for the bee to enter. You should note that the bee may return and start to drill a new hole unless you apply an insecticide such as Demon WP. Some bees will actually bore through paint and varnish so using an insecticide is t…

    Q
    Can spraying the exterior of a house with Demon WP drive smokey browns INTO a house?
    We had a smoky brown cockroach problem in the soffit/fascia of our house. As far as I can tell, I've gotten rid of nearly all of them by baiting the primary harborage areas (i.e. where I see them at) with Advion. However, I wanted to spray the soffit and fascia to prevent reinfestation and kill any that are remaining. Question: Can spraying the exterior cause them to seek shelter in the attic? Should I go in the attic and "spray out" instead?
    A

    Typically it will not drive them inside because Demon is not necessarily a repellent, meaning the roaches try to avoid the area.  Roaches will walk over where you spray and get the product on their bodies.  Although they can make it inside before dying because Demon WP will take a little b…

    Does Demon WP work to help get rid of or kill scorpions?

    Yes! Demon WP is one of the most popular scorpion products on the market. Demon WP will kill scorpions that come into contact with treated areas plus it will kill the other insects that are around your home which is why the scorpions are there to start with.

    Q
    Can I use insecticide granules in my crawlspace?
    I have an ant, earwig, and spider issue in my new house. I have sprayed around the yard, but they still seem to be getting in. I would assume that the only other place is under the house in the crawlspace. If I were to retreat the yard with granular insecticide, could I also use it in the crawlspace for added protection? If so, which would be the best kind?
    A

    You would not want to use granules under the crawl space of the house.  The reason being is granules require moisture, either from watering or rain, to release the insecticide that kills the insects.  You should always water in the granules after application especially if you are in an are…
