    Q
    Does Demon Max kill fire ants?
    A

    Yes, Demon Max is labeled for fire ants. Per the product label you would want to use the Drench Method (Ant Mounds, Fire Ants): Apply 1-2 gal of 0.1% Demon Max emulsion to each mound area by sprinkling the mound until it is wet. Treat a 2 ft diameter circle around the mound. For mounds larger than 12 inches, the higher volume and wider treatment diameter (up to 4 ft) may be needed. For best results, apply in cool weather, such as in early morning or late evening hours, but not in the heat of the day. We also recommend you take a minute to look over our guide on How to Control Fire Ants.

    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
    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.

    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.

    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.
