    Q
    Can Demon WP Insecticide be used any time of year outdoors, or is it best to wait until you see pests?
    Also, will it work on lady bugs?
    A

    You are able to apply Demon WP any time of year when you see activity or as a preventative treatment as long as the temperature is not at or below freezing when you are treating. Lady bugs are not specifically listed on the label, but Demon WP does treat for very common insects around the structure including spiders, cockroaches, boxelder bugs, fleas, and ants.

    Q
    After spraying Demon pesticide, how long will it be before it is safe to handle the soil?
    A
    Demon WP Insecticide does stay in the soil for a few years, so if you are planting vegetables, you will need to wait at least 4-5 years to plant. But if you are not planting edibles you can handle the soil safely once it is dry.

    Q
    How long can Demon Wp be stored after being mixed with water? If it can't be stored-Why?
    A
    Demon WP should be used with 24 hours after it has been diluted with water. There are a couple of reasons for this 1.insecticides will start to degrade if they are left standing in water 2. Demon WP never truly dissolves in water and it will separate and clog your sprayer. You should also note that leaving liquids standing in your sprayer will void the warranty of most sprayers as most chemicals and even water will corrode the tank, seals and other sprayer parts when sprayer is not properly rinsed between uses.

    Q
    How long do you have to wait after spraying Demon before it gets wet (if it rains)?
    A
    Demon should be applied when it is dry and should also be applied when it is not going to rain for about 4 hours or longer if possible.  Once an insecticide has sufficient time to dry, usually at least 2 to 3 hours, it is considered ready for rain.

    Q
    Can Demon WP be used inside home to kill fleas? We have a heavy infestation in several rooms.
    Have had a Pest Control Agent spraying the rooms in house with very little effect. Was told by word of mouth, that Demon WP would kill and rid them for good. I was also told PreCor was good to use. Thank You
    A

    Demon WP Insecticide specifically states on the product label for Outdoor Flea Control only.  It cannot be used inside homes for fleas.  When Demon WP is used inside correctly for the listed insects it is only applied to cracks and crevices around rooms, along baseboards and cannot be used across entire floor surfaces where you would need to treat for fleas.  Precor IGR would be a great part of treatment along with an insecticide such as Onslaught which can be used on carpets.  We also have great guides here for identifying, inspecting and treating fleas to ensure you are correctly treating.

    Q
    Can Demon WP be used through a misting/spraying system?
    The misting system we want to installl about 400 ft long and has misting spray attachments every ft or so and a 1/2 hp pump. The system is County Line from tractor supply. It's going in crawl space that is difficult to get to spray regularly with a handheld sprayer.
    A

    Demon WP should NOT be applied in a mister, misting system or fogger only a hand pump sprayer or backpack sprayer. We do carry products that can be applied for this application.
