Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The Raid Multi Insect spray works well for bugs and pests in the house. The lemongrass scent is minimal and smells more of traditional raid products. The packaging is nice and the spray function works well, however the design and packaging make it look more like a household cleaner than a bug déterrant. I recommend storing in a separate area from cleaning supplies so as not to h...

Great smell and pet friendly!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The lemongrass Raid Essentials is great mainly because it is pet friendly! This is a must for us because of our pup. We used outside to keep small ants off of our porch. Seems to work well and smells great! Not like the stinky normal kind.

Scent claim is misleading, but product seems to work
Would Not Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. At first I was leery about a product that was used to kill insects that I could use around my animals. However, I have not seen any adverse effects, and thus far they seem to have just left it alone. I was not a huge fan of the smell of this product. It says that it smells like lemongrass, but to me it does not smell anywhere near lemongrass unfortunately. So I was ultimately di...

Works great!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This works great! It honestly smells pretty decent too, not the typical strong insect killer smell. I live in a wooded area so we get critters in the house at times, and this spray really helps them stay away.

It Does Work!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Raid Essentials multi insect works well. I used it on some spiders I found in my basement and in a few minutes they were dead. I liked how fast it worked, but I do suggest using it in a well ventilated area. It does have a strong smell and I'm not sure how safe it is around pets. I would be hesitant to use around my cats without cleaning it up afterwards and keeping them out of ...

Good
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I like that this product is safe to use around children and pets. With that said, It does have significant warnings about getting in eyes or swallowing so it makes me question how safe it is. The smell is ok, like a citronella scent in my opinion. Not horrible or too strong. It kills a wide variety of insects. I think this is a good product for anyone that needs pest control aro...

Bugs are dead
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I like that this bug spray doesn't have a strong chemical smell. It did a good job killing the ants but left a slightly greasy residue. The instructions say to wipe the area with a damp cloth and soapy water. This did get rid of the residue. I think this is probably the trade off for fewer harsh chemicals. Overall a it did a good job.

Safer in the Kitchen
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. When I first sprayed the Raid Mult-Insect Killer with, I did not automatically smell the lemongrass scent. Actually the smell was not very pleasant until I wiped it away with the cloth and then I finally smelled a lemon scent. The fruit fly I sprayed it on did stop moving and I am assuming died, but I will have to wait to see if it works on other types of insects. I do appreciat...

The scent is off putting!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This Raid is interesting to me. It is a multi-insect killer but safe to use around children and pets! The scent of this is definitely off putting. Which is a good thing as it keeps my kiddos away from the areas I sprayed. I used it more so for spiders around my home and so far I haven't seen anymore! I will keep using it and it seems to be working!

Safer alternative around pets!
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I used this product in my house to kill house flies. I sprayed them directly on the window screens. Much easier to use than fly swatter and less messy with smashed bugs to clean up! The scent is a lilttle strong but dissipates quickly. I recommend this product to anyone needing a quick easy use bug killer that is safe to use around my cats!

Love the Essential Oils
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I love the minimal ingredients and use of essential oils. I love that this is safe for kids and pets. When I saw this, I was excited to use it to see if the scent did smell like Lemongrass. You can really smell the essential oils in it, though you can slightly smell the other ingredients too. I was surprised to come home the next day and still be able to smell lemongrass. It doe...
