Raid Essentials Multi Insect Killer 29, 12 oz trigger spray

This is great, in under an hour a pesky housefly problem that cropped up is gone.There was construction on my back stair side door that looks out over a large apartment’s recycling area floors below. It had rained and the seal around the door wasn’t replaced yet. Suddenly, I had houseflies for the first time. Seemed like 20+ a day. I tried swatting, vinegar traps, sticky traps… anything that wouldn’t disturb my sensitive, mature cat. It was like waking up as Bill Murray on Groundhog Day for a week - just to murder the same 20 flies all day between bouts of cleaning everything until I was stiff and sore.Ew. Flies are so gross and frustrating!The aggression was getting to me. Sometimes I would open a window and try to shoo them - feeling murderous and zen at the same time. It’s like they thought I wanted to play? Nasty buggers were getting faster and smarter. Sometimes they’d swarm attack - buzzing close - kamikaze face and eyeball dives. What the… Or, they’d demoralize me by having lazy, drunk sex - coupled in the air right in front of me. Other times, being knocked out - then, coming back like Terminator - mocking me with their prolific regeneration abilities and zero shame <insert censored sailor swearing here>.This spray just arrived.It was fly apocalypse in less than 30 minutes. Small controlled bursts. I trailed it along window and door seams - or places they favored. I did notice it’s a little smeary/oily on windows or stainless steel, but I wiped that away easily with 70% isopropyl alcohol.The scent isn’t bad or strong, I can smell the lemongrass, green, citrus, plus… a very slight petrol-like fume that dissipates quickly. I’d be careful not to spray fabrics in case it stains, but it’s so effective and affordable. I don’t think you’ll regret it.My sensitive cat is chipper, her appetite is healthy and unrelenting. If she’s upset by anything that’s the indicator - she goes on meal strike. I’m sure it bothered her when I’d go on a fly rampage, swatting loudly throughout the day. When she was tiny and I trained her to stay off counters, a small clapping sound wIth ‘no kitty, down’ was the method. I’d leave a room where I swatted flies and she’d be still, silent, low on the floor with large pupils thinking she was in trouble - poor sweetie.I can’t tell you how happy I am right now to have this problem solved. There’s a side bonus too. There were these tiny almost transparent other things under a houseplant water catch tray. They marched out dying. All I did was dust with a little of this on a paper towel under the plant stand and on a baseboard nearby the plant. Yaas! I know right!?Omg, I can’t believe you’re still reading this.Thank you for the free therapy sesh for my PTFS (post traumatic fly stress). Go get ‘em! Lol.Update: Day 3, 4 were back, Day 4 there were 2, but only one area in the house. Today is over a week later and there were 2 varieties: 3 little ‘wine fly’ ones and 4 large lazy ones - but I hadn’t sprayed or seen any for days. Depending on type of critter and cycles, you may have to spray an area again - just a little near their ‘spawning grounds’ or ‘ground zero’ going forward. Nothing like the first round. To date: I have 1/2 the bottle left and zero flies. I’m impressed and ramping up for holiday entertaining and culinary projects - safely and hygienic. Side note: my indoor, windowsill herb garden is fluffy and lush, whatever enemy they had has abated though I never sprayed on or near them, just wiped a few sills below with a product moistened paper towel - so happy about that. Disruption Junction, exit to the left! Bye critters! I loathe them!

This product is a great value for the money, made of great quality, easy to use, effective, safe for people and pets and has a nice, clean scent. I highly recommend this product!

This owesome fruit flys die on contact but it leaves a sticky rezidue

Smells good. Is effective.

I killed all insects in my house

Works great (and fast too). Has a slightly heavy odor, but it's quite tolerable.

If I could send it back, I absolutely would. Did it work? Absolutely!! Did it give me a terrible headache? Oh yeah. The smell permeated everywhere, and I couldn't handle the smell. It's not like I used too much; I didn't. I can say those ants stood no chance with this toxic dump liquid. I have my air cleaner on full blast, but it continues to bother me after 2 days. The smell simply WON'T go away. I have people coming to my house in 3 days. Hoping the smell dissipates by then. I will say, no more ants, but there HAS to be something else that works that doesn't stink the house up to high heaven. My cats are turning their noses up. So....would I buy it again? ABSOLUTELY NOT. Nope. Throwing it out. It's up to you. If you can handle the smell, more power to you! I. FEEL. SICK.

We get those tiny little spiders that put this webs everywhere outside... and even my car's outside mirrors.I've used quite a few bug sprays before and they don't seem to work all that well. Those are the ones in the gallon jug with a sprayer on a line that you can use. When I received this all I could think of is "this is it? this bottle is small and no way it's going to last that long". But forget the size, this stuff is like concentrated bug-kill! I spray a little around parts of my car (careful of overspray) then around an air compressor and shed I have outside, and a few other areas..... and it keeps them away for at least 2-3 months for me.I've since sprayed some at the bottom of our outside to inside doors, and along the roofline of the house and it's excellent.This is the real deal. I highly recommend it. :-)
