Demon Max is labeled for milipedes, and will eliminate the ones that are in the area currently. There are a few things that you can do to possibly stop them from coming to the area to begin with. Habitat modification is key to reducing your milipede population. Since they live in and eat organic matter, try to remove as much excess organic matter as possible like piles of weeds, leaves, etc. Over-mulching and overwatering also can create damp environments for many pests, not only millpedes. Avoid overwatering, and use rocks or other materials instead of mulch if possible. Always pick fruit and vegetables,if they are in your area, as soon as they are ripe to prevent millipedes (and other pests) from using them as a food source.
