    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the STEM plant-based bug spray for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed. It actually works on ants, roaches, and flies like it says—without that strong chemical smell. I’ve used it both inside and on my patio, and it seems to keep the bugs away pretty well. I also like that it’s plant-based and feels safer to use around my pets. Definitely a good option if you’re looking for something more natural but still effective and the packaging is perfectly simple!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It took me a while to find the bottle since I thought it was a white container, but it was actually clear. So far, I’ve used it around the edges of my porch mainly because I feed outside cats. It has been working reasonably well as a deterrent, but with all this rain, I’m unsure how to eliminate the ants in the yard completely. I have to be careful because I don’t want to spray too close to my tomato plants outside. So far, so good. However, they usually develop a tolerance to these types of products.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bug spray really works and it works fast! I sprayed a fly once, it staggered around for a few seconds and then was dead. We have a fly problem due to our 2 dogs going in and out all day long. This spray has really helped take care of the flies that sneak into our house.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] STEM Kills Ants, Roaches, and Flies is a plant-based pest control option that balances safety and effectiveness. Its plant-derived formula makes it a safer choice for use around children and pets, though it's always important to follow label instructions. The spray is moderately effective, working best on direct contact and suitable for controlling occasional pests rather than eradicating large infestations, which may require multiple applications. Priced competitively with other natural options, it offers reasonable value, though costs can accumulate with repeated use. The packaging is functional, featuring a user-friendly spray nozzle, and the mild, plant-based scent is a welcome change from harsh chemical odors, making it ideal for indoor use. Overall, STEM is a good choice for those prioritizing a safer, plant-based solution for minor pest control needs.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] STEM Bug Spray is a product that delivers. I've had an issue with ants every summer and the other bug sprays left such a bad chemical scent. STEM handled the ants and continued to eliminate them days after spraying. The scent isn't overwhelming like other bug sprays, but it is noticeable. The plant-based formula is a plus for my family and pets.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging was good, the sent was fine and not overwhelming. Definitely don't think it's worth the money, you have to spray it directly on the ants and you can to keep spaying a lot for it to kill them. I can spray my dawn power wash on the ants one time and they are dead. Definitely don't think it's worth the money or that it actually works that well. I don't want it just sitting all over on my counter for it to kill them, not with having a toddler in the house.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted something less toxic to use around my kitchen and living spaces, especially with ants constantly showing up. The smell is strong at first, kind of herbal, but way better than harsh chemical sprays. It works well on ants and flies if you spray them directly, but roaches take more effort and a few extra sprays. I like that it doesn’t leave any residue and feels safer to use around food areas. It’s a bit more expensive than regular bug sprays, and you have to be pretty accurate with it, but for everyday bug problems, it does the job.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Amazing product for common household pests, such as ants and spiders. Although, some spiders took a bit more spraying to kill. Liked how it didn’t have a strong order, unlike other products that have a smell and residue that leaves you with more cleaning afterwards. I would recommend for daily indoor use.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works well, only issues I found is that it is a bug killing spray, not a preventative spray like I originally thought. Many ants and Nats move around too much to be spraying on the go. Otherwise works well and smells good.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay, let's talk about this STEM bug killer. Seriously, if you're like me and hate those super harsh chemical sprays, this stuff is a breath of fresh air – literally! First off, the safety aspect is a huge win. The bottle practically shouts "SAFE AROUND PEOPLE + PETS," which immediately puts my mind at ease, especially with two dogs and two cats wandering around the house. The smell is absolutely wild. Instead of that typical chemical stench, it legitimately smells like a nice bowl of cereal! I'm not kidding. It's so unexpected and actually makes spraying for bugs... almost pleasant? But don't let the nice smell fool you, this stuff is surprisingly effective. It says it "KILLS ANTS, ROACHES, FLIES," and yeah, it totally does. I've even had some success with other little creepy crawlies that aren't listed, though I'd probably stick to the bugs it's actually designed for to be on the safe side. The packaging is pretty simple, small, and clean – a clear spray bottle that's easy to hold and looks pretty decent sitting out, not like a hazardous waste container. And honestly, the best part? It's surprisingly cheap! You're getting something effective, safe, and that smells good, all without emptying your wallet. Definitely a smart buy in my book.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this bug spray on all of our entrances to our house. Sprayed around each of our 3 doorways. The scent smells pretty good, but could be a little too strong for some. I have noticed a bunch of dead bugs/ants not too long after spraying. There does seemed to be a little oily residue left behind that I had to clean off of windows from overspray. This does seem to be very effective for getting rid of uninvited guest (bugs).

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] STEM ant, roach, and fly killer seems to work well to solve a pest problem, but the odor is pretty awful. We have a dog and a toddler, so something safe for little ones and pets was an important aspect for us. The smell definitely lingers though, and personally, is not one I would like to smell every time I walk by a place it was sprayed.
