Demon Max is an emulsion used to control various arthropods, including ants, cockroaches, scorpions, chinch bugs, boxelder bugs, elm leaf beetles, gypsy moth caterpillars, borers, and bark beetles. For outdoor use, it can be sprayed on lawns, tree trunks, building siding, or bark, or applied to ant mounds by sprinkling until wet. It can also be used under slabs by drilling and injecting the emulsion or through under-structure insecticidal delivery systems like piping or flexible tubing.
