What Customers Are Saying
The product's effectiveness appears to be mixed, with some users reporting it successfully controlled insects like ants and ticks, while others found it ineffective, especially against larger pests. Many noted it worked well initially but the pests returned over time. Some were satisfied with its performance, but a significant number were unhappy, stating it did not control insects as promised. The product's long-term effectiveness seems questionable, as its performance seems to vary depending on the specific pest problem and application.

Would Not RecommendWe put out 3 bags on our front and backyard with approximately 20 thousand square feet and we are still seeing June bugs, beetles and bill bugs crawling and it seems like we are now seeing more June bugs when we turn on outside lights.
Not a quick solution
Would Not RecommendI bought this to control the ants around the house and, hopefully, in the house. Applied at the maximum recommended rate and watered in as required. It has been about a week and so far, still have ants in the house. Maybe it will work in time, but I am afraid that you will be unable to know if it was the treatment or not.
Does not appear to work on any type of bug
Would Not RecommendUsed around my residence to control or eliminate bugs. Does not appear to have worked, same bugs are still present as before!

Would RecommendI was directed to this product by one of the staff. My main concern was hatching flea's. (Can't let my babies get bitten by flea's) !! I waited until it was beginning to rain to apply it.....and the rain gave a good soaking. I will buy this product again.
Best Insect Repellent for Your Lawn!
Would RecommendI have been using the Ortho Max for a couple of years now and it is the best insect repellent for the lawn I have used! I moved into a newly built home in November 2012 and started using this every three months. I had used this product at my previous home only when the fire ants were bad, but decided to use it more often with a new home in a brand new subdivision. After using this for about 6 months, I found out my neighbors on either side of us were have a terrible time with scorpions and spide...
Great product
Would RecommendNever worry about insect, especially ants after rain. Stays on the ground to maintain insect prevention.
Decent product
Would RecommendI live in a heavily wooded area. This product works great but only for about two months at a time. By the third month grubs and ants are back. Continual use stops grubs and helps prevent armadillo infestation.
