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

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.

Dangerous Product without Toxic Warnings on the Label
Stay away from this product. The precautionary statement on the website should have been conspicuously displayed on the product container rather than the website. I was severely burned and still suffering from itching on the affected areas of my legs. Toxic products such as this should have its precautionary note visibly display on the product.

I wouldn't buy this product again
After using the product twice, the nozzle stoped spraying. The new design bottles prevent you from priming it or open the lead to check. Now I have useless 3/4 of a bottle which I can't use!

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!

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!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very easy to use spray bottle that helps cut down the bugs around our house. We use it all around house & picnic table. Cuts down on the amount of creepy crawlies! No problems with instructions or use.

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.
