    Springtails Gone

    By Marla on 07/30/2017

    I have had springtails for a few weeks every year. They were a nuisance but not something that I couldn't deal with, though I never treated them. I simply waited them out. However, 2 years ago during late July/early August, I had hundreds of them for weeks. I had to keep a vacuum cleaner in my bathroom for 2 months just to stay on top of them. It was bad enough to make me hate my house. I did a lot of on-line research and also called the Department of Entomology at Purdue University. I learned that this was a process that needed to start early in the spring, long before the first springtail made its way into my house. Starting in May, I spread Demand G granules using a manual grass seed spreader from my house out about 6 feet. The spreader worked great because it would spread them through the outside beds - a push spreader would not have been able to get to difficult-to-reach spots. I made sure there was no mulch next to the house next to the 2 bathrooms where the springtails were entering. I followed the instructions on the bag and wet the granulates to activate them. The man I spoke with at Purdue also advised me to spray a liquid insecticide formulated to kill springtails from the base of my house up about 2 feet. I did this every 3 1/2 weeks from May until the end of July. I did have a few springtails appear earlier than normal, but there weren't too many. With the last treatment, there are zero springtails. I never thought it possible to eliminate these miserable insects, but my combination plan worked. I would definitely recommend Demand G, but do not wait until you see the bugs before trying to treat - the population is already out of control if they come into your house. In my case, the springtails would seemingly appear out of thin air on the floor, but never in the shower or on windowsills. Last year they were so bad that some actually were coming out of the drain in my bathroom sink. I was afraid there was a colony underneath my slab foundation that I wouldn't be able to treat, but that does not appear to be the case. The last application I put down in July was a little heavier than usual, and I soaked the house with the liquid insecticide as well. I did not treat around my entire house, but concentrated only on the parts of the house where I saw the springtails. I am very thankful for Do My Own Pest Control, as they were helpful in answering my questions and shipped the product in a secure box in a very timely manner. I am going to repeat this process every year, as the cost was very reasonable and worth getting rid of the problem. I hope this review is helpful to those of you who think there is no hope.

    Springtails

    By Allan on 07/21/2013

    This product works great. I used it for springtails. You have to do it three months in a row to brake the cycle of reproduction. I see fewer ever week!!!! Also kills every other bug that might be in yard!!!!

    GOOD STUFF

    By The on 06/13/2011

    Verified Purchase

    Recommended by my bug control guy. Good stuff, according to what I found on the Internet and others experience and a good price too. The only thing neg. about the product is that I could not find a spreader setting anywhere on the bag. So I went ahead and laid down what I thought would be appropriate for the conditions for this type of powerful bug control.

    Awesome product!

    By Allison on 09/01/2011

    Verified Purchase

    For the money and size of the bag its a great deal compared to competitors. I used my manual grass seed spreader for this product and it worked great. I FOLLOWED the instructions to kill grasshoppers and crickets and was amazed with the results. The description states that it could take weeks to months to fully take effect. After 2 hours I walked out into my yard and saw over 30 dead grasshoppers and crickets in my front lawn alone! I LOVE this product. Now I have enough still left over to treat in the future.

    Demand G

    By Scott on 07/23/2014

    Superb product, within two days I noticed a visible reduction in the springtails we were experiencing around our home. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a strong, fast acting chemical by a proven control company, Syngenta.

    Help for Crane Fly

    By Amanda on 03/13/2013

    Verified Purchase

    We have crane fly problems every year with our lawn. We've yet to lose it, but they are a terrible infestation that we battle. Previously we used a wonderful lawn service (who unfortunately were overtaken by True Green). The previous person who cared for my lawn exclusively used this product to treat for crane fly and other insects. I'm so happy I can do it myself. Our yard is 5,000 sq. ft. I actually applied the product myself yesterday with a spreader. Seems like I'll get several applications out of this bag. As for the service with this website site, they have been great and proactive with follow-up, ship dates, etc. So far, very good.

    Excellent product for Chinch Bug issues

    By Tim on 04/20/2019

    Verified Purchase

    Here in Fort Lauderdale my St. Augustine grass seems to be constantly under attack from Chinch Bugs. For the past 2 years I've using Bifen L/P Insecticide Granules, that worked great until it no longer worked. My theory, the Chinch bugs became resistant. I switched to Demand G primarily because of the different chemical compounds. I can honestly report that Demand G is an excellent lawn pest control product. I make that bold statement because in less than 24 hours after application my driveway and carport park pad looked like a killing-field, dead bugs everywhere! And as for my lawn, zero signs of Chinch bug damage. Demand G is my new go to lawn pest control chemical.

    Great product good service

    By Joe on 09/22/2017

    I receive a shipment of Demand G granules, an excellent product for sod web worm. This shipment was delivered by UPS with a tear at the seam, and product was lost. I called Do My Own and explained what had happened and they sent me out another bag. Which did arrive okay. There was NO hassle just a sincere apology that I did not get what I needed. Thank you

    3 yrs going and still The Best!

    By Trent on 05/16/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I had a sugar ant problem that extended into my house and a wolf spider issue in my back yard, both in the rock edging and grass. I also had occasional issues with crickets, Rollie pollie bugs, and Mosquitos. A pest control company came around door to door wanting to sign me up and I was really considering it. I asked what product the used and this was the one. When I saw I could buy and apply myself for a fraction of the cost it was a no brainier!! After the very first application I noticed a huge difference! There were dead bugs all over!! I use this product along with the liquid version (around the exterior parameter and baseboards in my home) and after applying the granules in the yard, the liquid as described above, I have NOT had a bug problem inside or outside my home. I live in CO and apply 2/yr, now only as a preventative maintenance measure. This stuff is awesome and I recommend it to anyone who mentions they have bug problems. BTW it's surprising how little of this product you have to apply for it to be effective. A++++++++

    Demand G Granules works!

    By Brenda on 08/24/2017

    My lawn was under attack by the sod webworm. Last year nothing organic worked. They ate my whole lawn. This year they started up in July again. First week of August they took out a good portion of my front lawn. Called do my own, they hooked me up with Demand G. Left it alone after putting it down. Two weeks later, my grass was back! And my neighbor is saying "your grass is healthy!" "What did you use to stop the sod webworm?" I'm buying more!

    Finally - something that completely kills the crane fly!

    By Anonymous on 07/12/2013

    Verified Purchase

    After years of battling (and on the verge of losing my lawn), I finally found something that works. I did many applications this spring (3 - perhaps overkill but desperation will do that), but had NONE after using this product! First year ever I'm crane fly free!! Crane fly are tricky to kill as they are temp dependent and only surface within "kill depth" on warmer days. This is the exact product my previous lawn guru guy used. Highly recommend.

    Quick and easy

    By Ryan on 08/17/2019

    As always do my own gets the job done. I have used them for the last 10 years and order to door is never more than 2 days. As for the demand granules they work for my needs. I prefer Talstar liquid for my yard, but needed to switch up this time. Put an application of granules down for sod webworms about 3 weeks ago and this product worked well thus far for quick knockdown, but think will require another application this late into August.

    Got rid of bugs fast

    By Christopher on 10/02/2020

    I put the Demand G down with my spreader. I wasn't sure what exact setting to use, so I spread almost the entire bag over my front and back yard (about a quarter acre). I set up my sprinklers for about twenty minutes each. I didn't want to saturate my lawn and wanted some rainfall to also help blend in the Demand G. Within a week I saw dead beetles and caterpillars. I then prepared my lawn to be aerated about two weeks later. I did not see any bugs or spiders. I am going to buy another bag in three months for sure.

    By Rick on 11/05/2021

    I ordered two bags of this product and the service was great. I've used the product before and it does a good job of ridding my home of bugs just by sprinkling around the entire outside of the house.

    By Bill on 08/18/2023

    This is a very good product if I you this bag I would recommend to use a high-end handheld spreader from Scott's. Very cheap and very easy to spread the granular.
