Spectracide Insect Killers and Chapin 2-Gallon Plastic Handheld Sprayer Collection

Everything but the ants

Simple to use and effective with a number of pests... unfortunately the ants seem unfazed. Multiple applications may be the key... stay tuned.

Prayed for 45 minutes, bottle full

Second time I tried it after taking the first back. The sprayer does not work on two bottles. Do not waste your time or money.

Product kept clogging sprayer

Product has "snot" that clogs the spray tube and hole.This is after shaking the container for several minutes to try and dissolve the "snot". Had to use a much wider Wet n Forget nozzle to apply product, which emptied the container too fast. I purchased and used the product within 3 days, so not old

Works great for fleas

This last winter I had about a foot of top soil replaced and new sod laid. All last week the temperature was above 80 degrees with a humidity between 70% and 90%. Turns out the new soil and/or sod was absolutely infested with flea eggs and I had an infestation literally overnight. I mixed this 2tsp to a gallon and used almost the entire bottle to saturate my 3,000sf lawn. Its been a couple days and I haven't seen a single flea.

Saved my marshmallow bushes

I used this to spary my marshmallow hibiscus plants to save them from some kind of caterpillar infestation. The spray did the job and I haven't seen them back. The nozzle is easy to use and doesn't leak at all.

Didn't work this year

I used the product and it wasnt effective this year. All other years it was effective.

Easy, quick solution for a problem

I needed something quick, hopefully inexpensive, to solve a situation in my yard for ticks, fleas, fire ants and chiggers! My corgi, Pax, had just been diagnosed with severe allergies to some foods PLUS all of the above-mentioned bugs! He was raw with scratching and bites and stings. I needed something quick, easy, cheap and long-lasting. The label says this lasts 3 months!!!! I hooked it up to my hose and easily, quickly sprayed my yard. I waited 2 days to be sure the bad bugs had been ki...

Works well for keeping mosquitos at bay in heavily wooded area. Usually apply it every 6 weeks at the setting to kill ticks as well.

Zero stars

This is the second bottle that has had a problem with the sprayer not properly mixing product with the water. I've tried spraying my 5000sqft yard three times and less than 8 ounces of product has come out of the bottle. Doesn't appear to kill any insects. I won't be buying Spectracide products anymore.

Careful!

If you do not use the entire bottle, take care with storage. Chemical will clog uptake tube causing you to *think* you are spraying the insectacide next time, when you are not.
