If the odor of Demon Max is too strong for you, take a look at Talstar P. It is colorless and odorless. It also has the same residual and is labeled for just about any insect. Please keep in mind that we do not recommend using only a spray such as Demon Max for eradication of a roach infestation. Please take a few moments to review our Roach Treatment Guide for assistance on how to treat for this pest successfully.

Demon Max has the ability to do both the things you mentioned, both stain siding due to its oil base, and soak into brick leaving an oily finish and not providing as much chemical on the surface for an insect to absorb. It would be better to use a product like the Demon WP which would sit on the surface better, not stain, and last longer.
Demon Max does not require watering in after application to lawns, but how much water you use can vary depending on the target pest, ie surface vs subsurface dwelling insects. Please refer to the product label for complete instructions

Also, as long as you're applying the right amount of Celsius Herbicide per 1,000 sq. ft., you can mix it with Demon Max and Nyguard IGR. If you do end up mixing them, we recommend to follow the most restrictive label.
Temprid FX Insecticide is a multi-purpose suspension concentrate insecticide that can be used both indoors and outside. The FX stands for 'flexibility' because Temprid FX can be used on a large variety of insects in many settings. Combining the fast-acting power of beta-cyfluthrin and the transferal power of imidacloprid, Temprid FX can be used to combat ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, flies, spiders, and more. Target treat your home in places where pests have been spotted or give the outside of your home a perimeter spray (3 feet up and 3 feet out around the foundation of the home) to prevent future infestations.
Demon WP is a wettable powder that is dissolved in water and sprayed to interior cracks and crevices. It goes on wet and dries as a powder. It could be noticed more clearly on dark stained/painted baseboards and other listed areas on the label. We do offer other alternatives such as liquid concentrates that do not show visibly to those dark surfaces. Demon Max is diluted with water and applied to interior spot and crack and crevices only as directed for the listed pests on the label.
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 treat for oak worms.
Demon Max is labeled for flies and mosquitoes at the mix rate of 0.5 (1 tbsp) per gallon of water. It is suggested to use 2-10 gallons per 1,000 sq ft.

Also, treat the foundation of the structure to a height of 2-3 ft.
To reduce mosquiote and fly population, try to limit moisture areas or standing water on the property as much as possible, spray not just the top but also the underneath side of leave of bushes, trees and other dense foliage on the property where mosquitoes harbor and breed, and consider mixing in an IGR like Nyguard IGR to help stop the reproductive cycle.
