Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Seems to be yet another great product from Ortho, my go to for big and insect control. This unit is very easy to setup. I love the fact that it is very simple and easy to refill. The convenient month teacher on top tab helps also to remember when to put in a refill. I've put my unit outside on the back patio where most of our outdoor activities take place. It has only been up for a week now but I have total faith that this method will work wond...

Seems to work
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the unit in place for 2 weeks now in Mid July in southwest Detroit. Unit has stayed full and floater device has been in place but it has not been changed yet. I have not opened unit to check for larvae eggs but I have noticed that there have been no mosquitos in the nearby living area (which is 50 ft away). So it appears that they have carried the poison to other living breeding areas and it has greatly diminished the mosquito popula...

Enjoy your backyard, Mosquito free!!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Set up my Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill & Prevent Start kit about 2 weeks ago. Set up was easy. Placed the unit behind my outdoor sofa as instructed. As weather got warmer, we’ve spent more time outdoors, enjoying the pool and the outdoor tv. Last weekend, after a day on the pool, grilled some burgers then as dusk came, we watched The Wizard of Oz on the outdoor tv. Bug and Mosquito free!!. It was amazing. Our yard is very lush and the Mosqu...

So far so good!!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been very happy with the Ortho Home defense spray in the past so I was hopeful this new Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill & Prevent station would be as good. So far, I have not been disappointed. It's been in used for about 14 days in my yard and I have seen a noticeable decline in the number of Mosquitos. It covers about 4300 sq ft of space so it's been perfect for my outside patio and surrounding area. It's best to place in an area and ...

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good! It was pretty easy to set up, I put it on the side of my house. I do believe the mosquitos have decreased and I live in Florida where there is a lot. I am excited to see how long this lasts!

Kill and prevent
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set up is so easy. Make sure you don’t throw away the little tablets for the water. One band lasts a month. The numbers on the turning dial are for setting a monthly reminder of when to change the band. Moved to the patio for a picture but I sat this near some plants in the shade. I don’t have pets or small children anymore so it’s not a bother. Set it up a few weeks ago and am starting to see a reduction already. Looking forward to contin...

Quick Results and Easy assembly (Just Avoid Win
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really impressed with Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill & Prevent! It’s made a noticeable difference in reducing the number of mosquitoes around my home, especially in the yard where they used to swarm in the evenings. It’s easy to assemble by filling the device with water, adding the tablets and powder, putting on the inner refill ring, and snapping it all together. It starts working in about a week—definitely a game changer for enjoy...

It helped with the mosquitos.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I setup the Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill and Prevent station a couple of days before the Fourth of July Holiday. We still had some mosquitos , but perhaps I did not set it up to give the chemicals the amount of time to work properly.

Great product
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We put this in our backyard a few days ago. We have noticed that there were no mosquitoes. Our yard is usually full of them that we cannot go into our yard without being bit. I am now able to sit in my yard without worrying about being bit!

Works even when taken apart by wild animal
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I set this up about June 25 and when I went to check it yesterday to see if it needed more water, I found that it had been totally disassembled by some animal, probably a raccoon, and all the water was gone. But, I noticed this morning that there were NO mosquitos and on the day I set the trap up, I was getting bitten while I was baiting it. So even with only a few days of use, it did the job. I did have trouble getting it to snap down, so that...

Great product! You need to own this!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great product. I was having a huge mosquito problem until I received this product. I have not had one mosquito around my house. I’ve only used one of these units. I would strongly suggest this product to anyone with a mosquito problem.

Nice design
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice design and wonderful concept. We have only had it out for about 2 weeks now. As they are not being caught, it is hard to gauge if it is working. Fingers crossed as it has been a very wet year here with a lot of mosquitos.

Peaceful camping 🏕️ trip
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mosquito defense system is awesome. There is no zapping noises that scare the kids, no offensive fumes, and no batteries needed. The system traps mosquitoes in the bowl without any disturbance to the environment or to the tranquility of our camping trip. It's easy to tote, set up, and effective. Sincere thanks for a relaxing camping trip.

Bye bye mosquito's
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to tackle the big mosquito problem in my yard. I got this product, read the instructions and yes simple enough to get it assembled and placed, then I added the water. I did wear latex gloves when I opened the package of powder and made sure the tablet dropped in the tub. I'm not sure how big my yard is, but I put it where there's a bunch of greenery in the corner of my yard. I'm super excited to see how this works, it says 9 days, but...

Early review as only had it out about a week
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Live in DFW area and always have mosquito issues off and on. I’ve pretty well removed all sources of standing water on our property but skeeters keep coming. Tried citronella candles, garlic spray with leaf blower, mosquito dunks in gutters even though they drain but those little biters keep coming. Saw this product and giving it a try. EXCELLENT INSTRUCTIONS, product very sturdy and well made and easy to assemble. My suggestion on assembl...

The Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill and Prevent
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Control Kill and Prevent protects up to 4,300 sq. ft. against mosquitoes and larvae that may transmit Zika virus, West Nile virus, Dengue Fever, and Chikungunya. Just replace the band every 30 days, check water level periodically and refill as needed.
