    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
Does this work to kill ants in lawns?
A
Demon Max will only kill the ants coming in contact with the treated area. It will not stop the colony or keep them from coming to the lawn. Please take a few moments to review our article on How to Get Rid of Ants for a successful program. ?

Q
How effective is Demon Max on controlling Wood Ticks and also Deer Ticks

We have a acreage with water on three sides. I do keep the lawn to 3 inches, all leaves and sticks are always picked up at current time we have no pets. What is the mixture rate for killing Wood Ticks, does it also kill Deer Ticks. How long under normal conditions would a application for ticks last? How soon for a re-application? Can tree's be directly sprayed? After the kids and I have been outside we typically take three (3) to six (6) ticks off of one person. H E L P..

A
You want to mix 1 fl oz of Demon Max with 1 gallon of water. You would want to reapply outdoors once every 30 days and indoors once every 3 months. We would also recommend mixing a an insect growth regulator in your demon max regulator. Archer IGR works very well and will disrupt the tick life cycle. Yes, you can spray in, on and around buildings and structures; on soil, lawns, turf and vegetation; under and surrounding building foundations; and for spot or crack-and-crevice treatments.

Q
If you spray Demon Max inside a top stove range will it be flammable after drying

The stove is one you can remove the eyes. Spray was sprayed on the under surface.

A

Demon Max cannot be applied inside appliances nor on stoves at all. It can only be applied as a spot crack and crevice spray on the outside surfaces and under refrigerators, stoves, furnaces, etc. as directed on the product label.  We would recommend using a labeled oven cleaner to remove the product completely from the stove and give the inside ample time to dry before using.

Q
Demon vs. Demon Max?

I have been using Demon around my yard and home the past 2 years, but I am wondering which would be more effective for overall bug control. I would like to be sure that I am blocking out termites at the same time too.

A
Both products contain the same active ingredient, but the Demon Max is at a higher concentration.  Also, the Demon Max is a liquid and the normal Demon is a powder.  The powder can leave a white residue where the liquid will not as much.  For treating yards, the Demon Max liquid would be a better way to go and will last a little longer in the sun.  Both are great products, but if we had to choose, we would say the Demon Max is the better of the two.

Q
Does Demon Max repel pests as well as kill them?

I want to keep the wasps and yellow jackets away.

A

In general, there really isn't such a thing as a spray that will repel wasps, or most insects, other than the ones designed specifically for mosquitoes and gnats. Demon Max does have a slightly higher repellency to its formulation due to it being oil based, but most insecticides work by being sprayed on surfaces the insects land on frequently so they can pick it up on their bodies and die from it.

Q
Can Demon Max be used on roses to kill aphids?
A

Demon Max is not labeled to be used on roses and does not kill or control aphids. We recommend Sevin which can be used to control many species of aphids on roses.

Was this answer helpful to you?  YesNo

Q
Can Demon Max be used inside to kill moths?
A

Demon Max can only be used in cracks and crevices and along baseboards inside.  If the moths are coming from these areas it could kill those that contact the treated areas only.
