Worked well for small fruit flies

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My dad moved into a new home and had small fruit flies that were originating from the drain. Since I recovers this product we started spraying this down the drain each day. Soon the little flies were gone. I was surprised how strong the smell was being a all natural product.

Safe for use around kids and pets

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging was great, I like the way I can see how much product remaining. The insect spray has a good smell, not too strong. This Stem worked well, I used it indoor and outdoor. Safe for use around kids and pets. Would recommend it.

READ the directions, Have expectations; On-the-spot bug spra

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. First, READ THE DIRECTIONS on the bottle to have the correct expectations of how to use it and its limitations. It can leave a slick residue that someone can slip on or staining on a surface. If you have an on the spot bug issue - that ugly spider you are afraid to smash and kill, or a group of ants congregated around a piece of food dropped near the door, this STEM spray would be a good use for that type of situation. A sort of "chemical flyswatter." I thought after seeing commercials that maybe this spray was more of a safe alternative to regular sprays - it is and it isn't. It IS supposed to be safer, but it is NOT a longer-term solution. It is NOT something that the ant or roach will walk over and take back to the nest and kill other bugs or deter them from coming into the area. It must be used on a bug while on a surface they have LANDED or are crawling. Directions advise to NOT spray in the air at a flying insect. I have had some big black ants coming in, one here and there since the weather was so hot. Most are too high to get and you wouldn't want this spray to come down on you or breathe it in. I finally had one crawling on a low wooden cabinet door. I sprayed once and it fell on the rug. It started taking off and I sprayed it twice more. It started slowing down about a foot out from where it fell and stopped about another foot from that. I don't know if it was dead or just frozen sticky by the product. It reminded me of when I used hairspray to slow brown recluse spiders so I could smash them before they got away. I smashed the ant to make sure it was dead. The smell is pretty potent - sort of a chemically rubbery smell, not particularly pleasant. The smell did hang around for a bit after, it doesn't disperse particularly quickly. I wiped with water where I sprayed the cabinet, no staining or residue left behind. The two sprays when it was on the rug are still somewhat wet and my fingers stink of it from trying to use a paper towel to soak up the moisture. It will stop a bug(s) relatively quickly (this ant got 3 sprays worth), but if you have a continual bug problem, this won't be the correct product. I see this best used when coming upon a spider you don't want to touch, a group of ants or gnats low enough to a surface where you can spray downwards, but it isn't a longer-term solution for a reoccurring problem or infestation.

I am satisfied so far.

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I live in a very grassy area with all sorts of insects. My favorite part of this product is that it is safe for kids, as I have a 2 year old. So far the product works good. I haven't seen any bugs since I've sprayed by the front and back doors. I look forward to purchasing their insecticide for spiders, although I haven't seen spiders since spraying this product. I look forward to seeing how things are down the road.

Excellent natural spray

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I like that the product is pet safe. My dog will attempt to lick and eat anything. Currently I am experiencing little ants on my countertops, so this was a perfect time to test this product. I am happy that this works well and will be telling family and fry's out this product.

I would recommend this product to a friend

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The product is packaged simply. It kills almost instantly. The spray has a strong scent that's not unpleasant but is pronounced. The spray covers a large area about 4 inches in diameter and and also affect insects nearby the affected area. I have a garden and do a lot of composting and am constantly fighting ants and flies and this spray is an easy go to for pest control on my porch!!

Good Bye Ants

i received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. The smell of the product wasn't bad. It slowly killed the ants but I definitely have seen less around our house. I prefer the spray bottle because I can spray into direct small spots.

I would buy this again

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I tried this product when I got home and WOW! It worked instantly and didn't smell harsh. Love the trigger handle it is easier to use than the button on top of the can. Would buy this again.

Safe and effective-a great new product

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This product was fantastic! It performs as well as any other brand's product claims and adequately killed ants, roaches, and other bugs. But the best thing is that this seems like a rare pesticide that is safe to use inside the home where there are children and pets. Finally!

Does the job but smelly and stinky

I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. I used this product in the house once because lately we've been having a bug problem with ants in the kitchen and it got the job done. The last few days I haven't seen any ants so thank you for this product, the only thing I don't like is the smell and how stinky it is. It has a strong nasty smell and I have a very sensitive nose. I had to leave the windows open all day to air out the house.
