Demand G Insecticide Granules

Demand G Insecticide Granules, manufactured by Syngenta, is a granular insecticide designed to control many insects found in and around the home, such as beetles, chinch bugs, ticks, fleas, ants, and nearly 30 other pests.

This granular product contains Lambda-Cyhalothrin 0.45%, a powerful insect active ingredient that quickly releases from the granule onto the surface it was applied to. Demand G Insecticide Granules can be applied to various outdoor areas, such as turf, lawns, and flowerbeds.

Tools Needed

To properly apply this product, a push spreader or hand spreader is needed.

We recommend using the push spreader for broadcast applications and the hand spreader for small localized applications.

How to Use

• Step 1: We suggest cutting the lawn before making applications to ensure the granules seep into the soil. Determine how much Demand G Insecticide Granules to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet, then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). According to the label, 2 to 4 lbs. of Demand G should be applied per 1,000 sq. ft., depending on the pest you are looking to treat. For example, if you wanted to treat for ticks and calculated a 2,000 sq. ft., the rate is 2 to 3 lbs. of product, so you would need to broadcast 4 to 6 lbs. to cover the application site.
• Step 2: Pour the correct measured amount of product into the spreader and follow the product label to calibrate your spreader at the right setting for your spreader type.
• Step 3: Walk with a steady pace to disperse granules evenly. You will need to do two perpendicular pass-throughs to ensure the granules are uniformly applied.  
• Step 4: After making a complete application, water the treated areas to help the granules penetrate the soil for maximum effects. You can reapply periodically for continued control.

Where to Use

Demand G Insecticide Granules can be used outdoors on residential landscaped areas and non-residential landscapes around institutional, public, commercial and industrial buildings, parks, recreational areas, and athletic fields. 

This product is also for use around structures and landscapes in areas of bare soil, mulched areas, or vegetation not being grown for food use.

When to Use

Apply Demand G Insecticide Granules when treating for targeted insects on label-approved turfs, lawns, or flowerbeds and around the perimeter of foundations. It can be used as a spot treatment when ant mounds area developing.

Do not apply during windy weather or 24 hours before heavy rains, as this can cause the granules to drift away while making applications or wash away after applications.

Safety Information

Demand G Insecticide Granules are safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when making applications.

If the product is watered in, keep children and pets off-treated until the area is dry.

Special Considerations

Demand G Insecticide Granules can be applied at different rates depending on the insect that you are targeting. 

For best results, water grass thoroughly immediately after application. Treat again in late summer or early fall if the population rebounds.
