    Great Stuff

    By Steven on 04/23/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I have been using the active ingredient Cypermethrin for almost 5 years as an indoor and outdoor pest control product. It is a great chemical and does wonders to control roaches and ants. The residual effect is nice providing for less applications through the year. It also does not afffect my pets who have shown sensitivity to other pesticides.

    Demon EC (Max)

    By Lance on 06/26/2013

    I have used this stuff for over 10 years; beginning in a rental house that had sat empty for over 3 years and was full of all manner of creepy crawlies. One application of Demon (the first time I'd used it) and they all died a quick and horrible death, leaving the house bug free and inhabitable. It even de-bugged a 18 year old mobile home I lived in while my current house was being built. It's rare for a product to work as well as advertised, but Demon is the real deal.

    Best I have used so far.

    By Stan on 09/08/2013

    Out of all the products I have tried so far Demon Max has proved to be the best. As a landlord of 72 properties, I have tried many products over the years. Demon Max has been very effective and versatile. It has been mixed to do everything I encounter, RoAcHeS, fleas, termites, spiders and ants.

    Demon Max excellent product

    By Anonymous on 06/22/2013

    Verified Purchase

    Highly recommend this product. I have been using Terminex services for years and it is quite expensive. I tried Demon Max and it works perfectly. Roaches are dead outside the house and never make it in. I only have to treat the outside perimeter of my home.

Q
Can you treat with Demon Max on flowers without killing them..have mulch that is infested with ants?
A
Demon Max will not kill flowers, but may leave an oily residue. Demon Max will kill ants that come in contact with it, but not eradicate a colony. For ants in mulch we recommend using Niban bait. NIBAN Granular Insect Bait is a moisture-resistant bait that can be used indoors and outdoors to control ants, silverfish, roaches, crickets and more.

Q
Is Demon Max effective on leaf cutter ants?
A

Demon Max 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 this species of ants. According to several university websites MaxForce Ant Bait Granules containing hydramethlynon are somewhat effective, though they will usually eliminate only about 30% of a large colony in one treatment and will need to be reapplied several times.  DeltaGard Granules are one of the only products actually labeled for leaf cutter ants. The product label recommends treating the mounds directly and lightly watering the granules in. Again, it may take several treatments to get the desired results. We also recommend contacting your local cooperative extension office to see if they have any recommendations for products that have worked for other people in your region.

Q
Ordered Demon Max do I need anything else to kill the eggs? The ants are dying but they keep coming
A
The ants keep coming, because Demon Max will only kill the ants coming in contact with the treated area. It will not stop the colony. Depending on what type of ant they are you could use our Complete ant kit

Q
Does Demon Max stop working after it dries?

I have just heard that it stops working after it dries and it only kills roaches or bugs when it's wet...

A

No, Demon Max does not stop working once it has dried. This is a residual product, which means it will continue to kill insects after your application has dried. It will provide approximately a 30 days residual outdoors, and a 90 days residual indoors.

Q
How long do I wait after spraying Demon Max in my kitchen to put away my items?

I sprayed the inside of my cabinets and drawers in my kitchen. How long before I can line the cabs and drawers and put away my cleaned dishes/pots n pans, silverware, etc? Prior to spraying I vacuumed and cleaned with Lysol antibacterial spray since I am not able to clean post spray.

A

When spraying Demon Max you would want wait the standard dryng time of 2-4 hours. Keep in mind that weather conditions play a part in this as well should you be in a high humidity area. Demon Max should only be used as a crack and crevice spray indoors and should not be applied to any food contact or food-handling surfaces.

Q
Does Demon Max kill springtails?

There's a house it's been built on top of a concrete slab with springtails inside. Problems killing them. They leave after I spray but are back in a couple weeks.

A

Demon Max can be used for springtails but it only kills those that contact at treated area.  It does not repel them or keep them away.  Springtails thrive on excess moisture so eliminating any issues is key to successful elimination.
