Ratings & Reviews for ORTHO Bug B Gone Max Killer

This stuff works good....

I use this product twice a year. Once at the beginning of spring and then in the early fall. It stays warm here in Texas so our warm months are longer than the 3 month period as indicated on instructions. I mainly use it for the dog to keep pests off of him as well as people. I've been using this product for over 5 years and it does the job. I use a lawn spreader and water right in after application and it works good.

Insect Killer

This product was easy to apply using a rotary spreader. I have not noticed any insects above ground (fleas, ants, etc.) since using this product. No grubs underground either. I applied the product at 1.5 lbs. per 1000 sf.

Great Product

Love this product. With a spreader, application is so easy. Applies just like fertilizer. I've used the granual and spray version of this product in the past and have had better long term results with the granual version. This product allows me to walk in my yard throughout the summer without my legs getting eating alive.

Excellent product

Product worked overnight. Check label for proper amount to spread to achieve three month protection. Doing this at the store will make sure you purchase the correct amount for your lawn.

For fleas, don't bother. You might as well feed t

I used all of the products on the shelf that supposedly kill fleas. First, as directed, next at least double strength, again at extreme strength. 4 quarts of concentrate AND 20 pounds of granules for 5000 square feet. All of the companies reformulated their products and now they don't work. I used to be an exterminator so , I do know how to use the products.

Excellent product.

I have used other brands of this sme product and had success with those as well. I will say that this product seemed to work a little faster than the others. I spread a band of the granules in a perimeter around my home and broadcasted over several wide problem areas and had just enough leftover to hold in reserve in case I see any resurgence. Within 24 hours there was a noticeable reduction in the volume of ants and by 48 hours I found no evidence. I would highly recommend this product to anyon...

Bugs seem to be gone

Put it on my lawn last weekend to try to stop cinch bugs. I will know more on how effective it is as the grass grows in. Immediately stops ants and other bugs.

If it rains, it will be gone.

6 bags 3 times since June and still loaded down with bugs. We've had a wet summer and although the product recommends laying before a light rain, do this and hope you don't get any more than that. Last year it was dry and it worked great...might be okay if you could control the weather.

Use more for season long use

I like this bag because it's larger. You need twice as much for season long use. I've used this product before and it works well.

not working

I have applied two 10-lb bags of Bug B Gon killer for my 15,000 square feet lawn. I have to say I have not noticed any change. I can still see that ants still crawling around happily.

Good value

This product was on sale. I purchased it and applied it to my lawn as directed. I was hoping it would take care of a minor any problem. Ants are gone and other bugs seem to be less abundant. I will definitely buy again and re apply in a couple months.

It works

Originally bought this for chinch bugs. Found out that it tackles ticks also. I know it handles the chinch bugs well now to see how well it will chase the ticks away.

This works very well

Customer service was very good. Explaining this produce to me was service was a smile, didn't mind explaining the different of something elsa that I could use. Check out was with a smile and great conversation. Thank You

Good Insecticide

As good as any other insecticide, which the EPA will allow us to use.

No More Bugs

Initial results are very positive as appears to be a significant decrease in insects. Application was followed shortly by heavy rain but results do not seem to have been diminished. Will be interesting to see what the duration of coverage is in terms of days, etc.

Was not effective.

Used the product on my lawn at the recommended rate and applied according to the label directions to eliminate ants. After a week, there is no discernable reduction in ant hills in the yard.
