[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to use. Bottle has worked very well for the exterior of my home. Not letting flies roaches or ants. Get in safe for animals and people has a pepper mini smell but that is for helping keep the critters away. Overall a great product.

Great product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really impressed! I love that it’s a clean, plant-based option—especially important with a toddler in the house. It gives me peace of mind knowing I can keep pests away without worrying about harsh chemicals.

Eh
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn’t find this item very effective as I still got many bugs indoors. Many many flies around my house so the spray may not be the issue of the product but unsure.

It’s good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s a soft approach to traditional insect spray. It does have a smell that i am not crazy about, but i like the fact that is safer for plants and around the house overall. I like the bottle spray, better than the other spray. The price is reasonable for the amount.
From stemforbugs
Safer option
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Seems to work well. I like the fact that it’s a safer choice than other ant and roach sprays out there. Safety is a big factor for my household. The only issue really can be the residue it leaves.

Scadimg hot water works faster
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in return for my honest review of the product. I really didn't care for this product at all nor will I be purchasing it again. The scent was pungent and it hung around for hours afterwards. I had tried to use this product to kill ants that were around the outside of my home and it didn't kill them unless I really drowned them with it. I could have killed them faster with scalding hot water.

STEM Bug spray works effectively !
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the STEM Indoor and Outdoor Bug Spray and was impressed with how well it worked. It killed ants and flies on contact, and I felt comfortable using it since it’s plant-based and safe around kids and pets. I also really liked the light lemongrass scent it’s much better than the strong chemical smell of other sprays. The only small downside is that I needed to reapply it a couple of times, and it can leave a slight residue. Overall, I thi...

sorry bugs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] amazing at killing little bugs and we ran through this this summer while playing disk golf! we used indoor near plants too and it worked well there too

It's oily but it works!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First and foremost, I hate the scent of big spray. I find it rather noxious. But I live in area where ants, fire ants, and stinging bugs are plentiful so I have to keep a can nearby on my porch. If I want to enjoy outside at my house...I have to get rid of a big or two. I like this because it's in a spray bottle and I can lock the bottle from spraying. I can safely grip the handle and aim it. I don't have to shake up the contents to get a spray...

STEAM indoor and outdoor Bug spray
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Steam Bug spray packaging is really good proves it to be safety to storage at home. The scent is good and not strong, I like the effectiveness and the fact it’s plant-based and safe for my dog!

Works, no staining
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Completely insect free and no staining. I’ve used similar brands that end up staining the surfaces but this works and doesn’t stain. It does have a faint scent so I left my windows open while having it saturate my netting to avoid new insects coming in.

Stem Bug Spray! Try it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the STEM bug spray, and I’m honestly really impressed. It works well on ants and roaches around the house, and I love that it’s safe to use around kids and pets. That peace of mind means a lot to me. The spray bottle is easy to handle and gives a good, even mist without any weird chemical smell—it actually has a more natural, plant-based scent, which I really appreciate.

Not the best scent but def does the job
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The scent is not the most pleasant in the world, smells like chemicals BUT it gets the job done. We had an infestation of ants this summer and the traps weren’t enough. We sprayed them with this and they died within minutes. Definitely had to wipe away reside on surfaces.

Smells good and is safe for pets :)
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hello. I received this product complementary for my honest review. I have sprayed my couches, curtains and other multiple places. I think this product works good. I haven’t seen any roaches or ants in my home lately, so it must be working. And I live in the country where bugs are plentiful ); This product smells great and I love that it’s plant based and safe for my fur babies :) The price is comparable to other sprays like this. Thank you so...

Great product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this in my garage. Bugs, no more. The package is nice and looks professional. For money versus working ability, hands down, it works. Not a bad smell to it. And the trigger rotates, that's kind of cool.

Great product!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical about this, being it is natural, and a lot of sprays won’t ACTUALLY keep the bugs away, but I sprayed this about 3 weeks ago around my balcony door, and have not seen a single ant (we have an ant problem on the balcony). I highly recommend this product! It’s also safe to use in a house with animals/babies, so that’s a plus!!

Amazing and effective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking for a bug spray that’s both safe and effective—and STEM really delivered! I love that it’s made with plant-based ingredients and doesn’t have that harsh chemical smell like most sprays. I’ve used it both indoors and on the patio, and it works great against ants, flies, and even roaches. It’s a big plus that it’s safe to use around pets and kids (when used as directed). The scent is very mild and natural, and I appreciate that the...
