Poor applicator function
U have bought 3 of these bug stop bottles. I like the product but I have had to purchase so many because after several uses the applicator stops working. I am so frustrated with this always being the issue. I’m sure I’m not the only one having this issue. I’m sure your testing shows this as well. You should at minimum sell this product with an extra applicator or have offer an applicator replacement

Not great sprayer!
I bought this about 4 weeks ago. The sprayer does not work properly and half the time not at all. I took the sprayer off and used one from another brand and it worked great. I will not buy another with this type sprayer.

Sprayers are always defective and don't last.
Sprayer stops working after one use. Use it one time and two months later the sprayer stops working

The sprayer stopped working about halfway through the bottle and I can’t figure out how to get the rest of the product out of it.

Awful
I'm done with Spectracide products. This product works well, if you can apply it. I just bought two containers of it, and was outside trying to apply it to my foundation. It was hot. It was muggy. It was miserable. And I'm out there, struggling to get the prouct to come out. Sometimes it would, sometimes it wouldn't. I am NOT interested in advice on how to fix something THAT SHOULD JUST WORK. This was not the first time, but it will be the last.

I've used this product and I am trying to use it again, the same bottle. But no matter what position I put the sprayer on it won't spray. What can I do, I have almost a full container, which doesn't work?

Doesn't seem to work. Waste of money.
Says kills on contact...I sprayed this directly on an ant and a couple other insects listed on the label. It didn't even deter them or phase them at all. This was a waste of money.

Amazing!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked this up a couple of weeks ago for our new house. It’s a brand new build so we’re still having some issues with bugs. This works great on keeping those pesky bugs away and taking out the few we already had. I would definitely recommend you give it a try!

Protects my home!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] With all of this rain bugs loved trying to come into my home through the cracks of the doors! I used this Spectracide bug stop home barrier and it solved our problem! It was very easy to apply around our house. I haven't seen a bug enter our home at all! It really does the job. If you are having the same issue I highly reccomend!

My go to for pest control!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this to keep control of our spiders and ants that we normally get every year and it works great! I love the sprayer so I can get into the nooks and crannys of each room which makes it even more effective. It is also a super value with its gallon sized bottle. I will definitely purchase this again!

Works Super
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have spiders, ants, etc, along with fleas & who knows what else in our yard. And we are next to an open field that gets mowed every few months, but never sprayed. Grandson sprayed all around the base of our house & about 6" up so it would indeed, be a barrier. No bugs so far, which is g fantastic.

Super easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Spectracide Bug Stop Home Barrier is super easy to use. The Accushot sprayer is truly accurate and quite easy to control. I really like the extendable wand which made spraying under baseboards much easier, putting less strain on my back, etc. I also like that the sprayer fits nicely in holster on bottle. Another wonderful feature is that it left no strange unpleasant odor. It also left no discoloration or staining.

Great Product!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been having issues with ants at my house. I decided to try this product and I am so glad I did. This large bottle allowed me to spray my entire house inside and out and also still have some left over. The nozzle is very easy to use and I was also able to extend the nozzle to get to hard to reach places.

Good Stuff!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I assume it works pretty well, I have seen any bugs crawling. It's easy to apply and the smell isn't as bad as some others i've used in the past. I spray it around the base of my floors and around entry ways and it seems to keep them out.
