DIRECTIONS FOR USE: DIRECTIONS FOR USE It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Shake well before each use. RESTRICTIONS: Do not apply this product in a way that will contact any person or pet, either directly or through drift. Keep people and pets out of area during application. Do not allow adults, children, or pets to enter the treated area or contact treated surfaces until sprays have dried. Avoid applications during rain. Remove all exposed food and cooking utensils. Cover all food handling surfaces or wash thoroughly after treatment and before use. Do not use on edible crops. Do not apply to pets or contaminate feed, foodstuffs, dishes or utensils. Application is prohibited directly to sewers or drains, or to any area like a gutter where drainage to sewers, storm drains, water bodies or aquatic habitat can occur. Do not allow the product to enter any drain during or after application. This product is nonstaining to most common outdoor household surfaces depending on the condition and cleanliness. Test in an inconspicuous area for compatibility before using on these surfaces. All outdoor spray applications must be limited to spot or crack-and-crevice treatments only, except for the following permitted uses: 1. Applications to underside of eaves, soffits, doors, or windows permanently protected from rainfall by a covering, overhang, awning, or other structure; 2. Applications to vertical surfaces directly above pervious surfaces, (such as soil, lawn, turf, mulch or other vegetation) only if the pervious surface does not drain into ditches, storm drains, gutters or surface waters.

    Does exactly what it says!

    Works fantastically! I’m TERRIFIED of wasps and yellow jackets which are very rampant in our neighborhood. We used to have quarterly pest control come and they’d knock nests down for us. We’ve had several in our backyard and by our front door. It kills them very quickly which was my biggest concern. We’ve had a few get into our house and the first one I didn’t even hit directly but it still fell and died fast.

    Finally!

    I bought two other wasp and hornet spray that didn't work. I tried the foaming wasp and hornet spray and it worked better than I had hoped. 3 treatments for a nest I couldn't even see in my window sill and in 24 hours no more wasps!

    Awesome

    Never thought I'd be so excited to use a wasp killer, but WOW this stuff is effective. Foaming was a genius addition because it stops the bugs from flying if they get caught. I've also used this on spiders and it worked just as great. Super fast and crazy effective.

    The foam is thicker

    The foam seems to hold and be more efficient than just the normal spray. Wish it deterred the bees from constantly coming but hopefully disturbing them enough with this will help.

    Keeps wasps away

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Works great with stopping wasps from coming around. Fast acting and full coverage in hard to reach places. Price is great for the spray.

    Kills bugs with ease

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The raid max was great to pop up and kill the bugs really well. The coverage and foam really piled up on the bugs and melted away easily, to then be washed off with later after it cleared up. I highly recommend this product.

    Raid did the job.

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I had a huge wasp nest outside of my house and this Raid took care of the problem quickly. It was easy to use and the spout was strong enough to reach the nest even though it was high up. Thus works on more than wasps so it's a win win.

    Nice wasp spray

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The product comes out in a long foamy stream to entirely cover the nest or group of wasps. You don't have to get too close. It also doesn't have an unpleasant smell. Effective.

    Works great

    I purchased this raid max foaming hornet & wasp killer and it works well. I like the foaming action as it seems to work faster than the old style sprays and it works to stop them from flying. I recommend this product 100% Full disclosure I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review

    Great purchase!!

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. Raid max is a great product to have on hand specially, now that it's summer for any forming wasps or hornets it is a product that I have previously use and have a lot of trust in and will repetitively be purchasing for the years to come.

    Great wasp product

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. At first I sprayed a test area because I wanted to make sure that I used the product right before spraying it on the wasp nest. I sprayed the nest for a few seconds and then I ran . I came back to check after a few minutes and I didn't see any movements from the nest. The next day, I found 3 dead on the floor and there was still no activity on the nest so it definitely worked. I will be using this again because there are two spots where there tends to be nests.

    I would buy again and again

    I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I used this product on a wasp nest in front of my business, and I like how easy it is to use the product. The foam sprays quickly, and I was able to stand a safe distance away from the nest to make sure I did not get stung. The foam has no smell, which I absolutely love. As someone who is terrified of wasps, I am happy that I was able to use a product that quickly and efficiently killed the wasps near my business.

    Great Product

    Great product. Kills the bugs almost immediately. The scent isn't overwhelming and because of the packaging its easy to spray without getting it on you. It is well worth the price.
