Great product, works as advertised.
I've been using Spectracide Wasp & Hornet Killer for years. The price is cheap, and it works in seconds. Knocks them out of the air and off nests, and the nests are never reoccupied, nor do the eggs hatch. They squirm on the ground a bit then die. The spray range is great for those high up nests. I don't know what's up with those 2 bad reviews. They must be keeping the product outside in the heat and cold, I don't know. I keep it in the house so mine is not exposed to such temperatures, and it just keeps working. A 2 pack usually lasts me 2-3 years. Keep up the good work Spectracide and I'll keep using your product.

Doesn't even slow them down!
It doesn't work! I sprayed a red wasp, and sprayed...and sprayed. I'm surprised I didn't drown it. It didn't even skip a beat. I finally squished it with the side of the can. I thought maybe it was like a super wasp. Today a yellow jacket got in the house. I grabbed the spray and the same thing. It wasn't fazed at all. I eventually just squished it with the can. I'll be buying another brand.

Works perfectly
This spray was easy to use and went the distance without fizzling out. It also killed the wasps and yellow jackets without me getting attacked.

Meh!
I'm sure there is a better product for killing wasp. This product is not so good. It takes forever for the wasp to die.

Fast & Effective!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took care of a big wasp nest in minutes! The spray reaches far, works instantly, and kept me safe from stings. Definitely my go-to for any wasp or hornet problem.

Waste of money and time
Doesn’t work. And when I went back and read the reviews, seems like the 5-star reviews are commercials. Probably fake.

Good buy
Affective on nest and it was easy to use. The spray is long enough to use at a safe distance from the wasps.

Worked like a charm!
Definitely have to watch out for the wasps that fly off when the spray hits, but they were gone when I returned to look at nest.

Not worth it
Sprayed an entire can on a nest, and it did not kill the paper wasp.

#1 Weapon of Choice
My days of running down the street in a blood curdling scream is over! We've recently seen an uptick in wasp activity around the house. This spray has a long range and does the trick. I've tested it out from 20 feet away without having to run back in the house like a maniac. It works. My neighbor is a cop and informed me this should not be used on people.
