No, Demon WP is not absorbed through the roots of your plants but if your blueberry and raspberry plants have been sprayed with this product, you will need to discard them and skip harvesting for one growing season.

Demon WP Insecticide should not be scooped out with, or near, any utensils that will be used for food. The packets are already pre-measured and can be poured directly into the sprayer. If you truly believe the product was on a spoon you ate from, you should call the poison control hotline. If you start to feel anything other than normal, please seek medical attention immediately!

Demon WP is labeled to kill certain pests on contact, as well as leaving a residual. We would recommend giving the product some time to work properly.
Demon WP Insecticide doesn't possess any properties that can harm a plant as it is only an insecticide, and a water based one at that. We would need to know how many packets per gallon you used, and how many gallons you used total to spray around the home that day. Were the plants already under any stress from heat or disease? Anything used in that sprayer recently like an herbicide that could have had a slight residual still in the tank to impact the plants?
No, Demon WP Insecticide and Temprid FX cannot be mixed together. If you are treating for roaches you will want to select an insect growth regulator such as Gentrol IGR Concentrate to tank mix with an insecticide as this will help interrupt the reproduction cycle of the juvenile roaches. We would recommend using Temprid FX over Demon WP for the dual mode of action effect Temprid FX offers where Demon WP will only kill the roaches that contact the treated areas. Repeat applications are required in additon to proper sanitation and cleaning during the treatment.
Spraying alone is not going to eliminate a German Roach infestation as they require a combination of products and repeat treatments every 14 days. Our Roach Control Kits contain some of the top professional grade products such as Temprid FX, Gentrol Pointe Source Packs and Roach Bait Gel to effectively treat for German Roaches. Each Kit contains a different roach bait to help avoid any bait aversion or bait resistance. Roach Control Kit A contains FC Magnum which is a cleanout bait for fast kill and great transfer effect throughout the colony. After 90 days, you will want to rotate to Kit B or Kit C to offer a roach bait with a different bait matrix/food attractant.
Please take a moment to review our Roach Treatment Guide for step by step instructions and our Roach Control Kit Video for more information.
To remove the white powdered residue left behind when Demon WP Insecticide dries, we recommend using hot water and soap to wipe/scrub the area and rinsing with plain water.
Demon WP Insecticide is only going to kill the insects (roaches) that come into contact with the treated areas, it does not transfer throughout the colony which would be why you are only seeing a few dead insects.
For treating an active roach infestation, you need to use a combination of products and repeat treatments every 14 days. One week or 1 -2 treatments is not enougth to eliminate an active roach colony as majority of the colony is hiding in accessible areas.
We recommend one of our Roach Control Kits that provide you with professional grade products for the initial treatment and 2-3 follow up treatments. Each kit contains the residual insecticide Temprid FX, Gentrol Pointe Source IGR Packs and a roach bait gel.
Roach Kit A contains FC Magnum Roach Bait which contains 5 times the amount of Fipronil active ingredient providing superior transfer effect throughout a roach colony. This roach bait is commonly used when first starting a roach treatment program. If still baiting after 60-90 days, you can rotate to Kit B or Kit C to offer a different bait/food attractant.
