   Omg I love this stuff. I moved into a new place that’s surrounded by trees. It’s gorgeous, but with that comes big tree roaches. I was getting one coming in on a weekly basis!! Luckily I have cats, so I would only find them once they were dead. But I CANT deal with roaches and they are everywhere in the south, especially as it gets warmer.

   The first time I sprayed, I didn’t see one for almost 4 weeks. When another one got in, I did a touch up and haven’t seen another one since. Probably best to do maintenance spraying every few months! At least that’s what I’ve decided to do.

   This stuff has brought me so much peace of mind!! Cause those things are HUGE and I couldn’t continue living like that!

   I started getting ants in the kitchen a couple weeks ago, swarming over the cat food bowls. I tried duct taping the cracks they appeared to emerge from, but to no avail. Since I sprayed this stuff along the offending crevices, I have seen none (alive)! There are a few dead ones near the entry point, which is reassuring, as they didn’t even make it to the bowl. I love that it’s pet safe once it dries; obviously this one was non-negotiable since the treated area is where my cat eats/drinks. We have a mosquito and spotted lantern fly problem in our backyard, so I’m glad that this *should* work on those pests too (per the manufacturer. We’ll see how it goes – I pretreated the outside, and am optimistic now that I’ve seen it work inside). While the idea of using a strong chemical pesticide initially made me uncomfortable, it didn’t have a nasty chemical odor, was easy to use, and seems to work very well indoors.

   This works! I moved to a new apartment with lots of trees and bushes near my unit. During my first week at the new place, I found at least one spider a day. After I almost walked into a spider hanging from my ceiling one morning, I needed something to repell these house guests. I sprayed once around my front and back doors, just to see if that would help. A week later, the number of encounters with bugs drastically decreased (went from one spider a day to one spider a week!). I will be doing another spray before I leave for a week long trip.

   Have used this product before in the Caribbean. No roaches or the like for 5 years so I know it works. Pretty hefty price tag though for shipment to the UK when much lower price on the other side of the pond. But the heart wants what the heart wants…

   I purchased this, and I purchase the peppermint to put in it to reduce the smell. Also because I was told pest do not like the smell of peppermint. I highly, highly, highly recommend this product for keeping all pest away. I will never be without it. Where I live there are a lot of trees and those large water bugs. This keeps everything away. Do not spray it and stay in the area. Spray, leave the area for a while. The peppermint really helps.

   I just opened it today and discovered that the wand is broken.
   Extremely disappointed.

   I’m still giving the product 5 Stars because I use it every year to spray around the baseboards inside of our house.
   This product is great.
   Just a little bit of spray in the spring lasts all year long.
   It’s very effective.
   The battery operated sprayer is easy to use.
   No pumping.
   The base of the jug is rectangular and just wide enough not to tip over.

   So it fits

   This is the first time I used a battery-powered spray jug. Wow! I love it. Is the battery-powered wand worth the extra money? I say YES. I can treat my entire house at a brisk pace, without the constant hassle of manually pressurizing the container. And, I get a more consistent application volume.
   I did not rate this product 5 stars because it did not provide instructions regarding battery replacement. When this jug is empty, I intend to purchase a more reasonably priced refill. I don’t want the lifespan of this item to be determined by a battery.
   Also, my wand did not feature a “pinstream” option, for crack & crevice application. Instead, it offered two versions of “fanspray.”
   Suggestion to Ortho: I don’t need two “OFF” positions on the wand. Please add a “pin stream” option for indoor safety and neatness.
