    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 DemonMax have to be sprayed directly on the insect to kill it?
A
While Demon Max can have some knock down properties, it is not considered a contact kill product. It is a residual insecticide that once dry will last on the surface 3-6 months indoors (although you would respray more frequently for an active infestation) and 30-60 days outdoors depending on how the elements effect it over time.

Q
Will Demon Max kill honeybees?
A

Demon Max is not really selective, so it could potentially harm benificial insects such as bees and butterflies.  To minimize this risk, apply in the early morning or in the evening when they are least active, and avoid applying directly to any blooms.

Q
How long does it take Demon Max to kill roaches inside?

Exterminator sprayed Demon Max inside and outside my house 3 days ago..still seeing roaches. How long does it take to kill all roaches?

A

Demon Max is not considered a contact kill insecticide, but will leave a residual on the surfaces applied to that will continue to kill insects that cross over the treated area.   It will only kill those roaches that contact a treated area and this can take a few hours up to 24 hours or more depending on several factors. 

If you are dealing with a roach infestation, an insecticide application alone will not provide total roach control.  We advise that you read over our guide on How to Get Rid of Roaches, for a better understanding of all steps necessary, both non-chemical and chemical, for effective roach control.  Once you have sanitized and removed food/water sources, we recommend using three key products during your roach control program: a concentrated insecticide to quickly kill active roaches, a bait to help draw out and eliminate roaches that like to stay hidden, and an insect growth regulator (IGR) to disrupt the roach lifecycle and prevent roaches from reproducing.  Our Roach Control Kits contain all of the products you need to control an infestation and get your house back:  baits, insecticide sprays, glue traps, and insect growth regulators will work together to quickly knockdown roaches for professional grade control.
