Demand CS

Demand® CS Insecticide — Long-Lasting Pest Control for the Professional Applicator

Demand CS is a microencapsulated insecticide built around a simple promise: fewer callbacks. It delivers up to 90 days of control against more than 30 pests — mosquitoes, ticks, fleas, ants, and cockroaches among the most common targets — making it a go-to for pest management professionals who need results that actually hold up over time.

What sets it apart is its iCAP technology, a delivery system that encases the active ingredient (lambda-cyhalothrin) in millions of dual-walled, multi-sized microcapsules. These tiny capsules cling easily to the waxy outer layer of an insect’s body as it crosses a treated surface, giving you both fast knockdown and a long residual effect. Demand CS was actually the first microencapsulated pyrethroid product introduced to the professional pest management industry, and the iCAP system is still central to how it performs today.

A few standout features:

• Flexible perimeter and mosquito control: Labeled for band treatments around structures — up to 7 feet on absorbent surfaces like soil and mulch, 2 feet on vertical surfaces — plus applications to foliage, shrubs, and the ecotone areas where pests tend to live and rest.
• Long residual activity: Controlled release of the active ingredient means extended knockdown and ongoing pest pressure relief without constant re-treatment.
• Backed by real-world testing: An independent third-party tick study found zero adult ticks post-treatment through fall and into early spring after a single fall application, with zero nymphs the following spring.
• Broad-spectrum coverage: Effective against general nuisance pests as well as more targeted threats, and supported by Syngenta’s SecureChoice assurance programs for mosquito and tick control guarantees.
