Have to be patient but works decently well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product was pretty easy to set up, I had it set up for 2-3 weeks roughly now and although I see less mosquitos I’m still dealing with a lot so I’m not sure it’s working that great yet. It could possibly need a little more time. Great packaging and very portable. I do appreciate that it came with a refill.

We're sorry you were disappointed with Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill & Prevent. To achieve the best results, To confirm the station is working, check for larvae in the water; while they may be alive initially, they will die before reaching adulthood. Because contaminated females fly away after laying eggs, you will not find dead adults in the station, though they typically die within nine days. You should see a notable reduction in the mosquito population within 2–3 weeks. The population will remain low across the 4,300 sq. ft. protection zone as long as the refill band is replaced monthly per label directions. Please note that overall results depend on the local mosquito population and the availability of alternative breeding sites. We would like to understand more about your experience and what we can do better. Please visit our Help Center at https://scottsmiraclegro.com/en-us/support/help-center/helpcenter to chat with us when you are able.

Works well so far, but still unsure on results

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve using Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill and Prevent for several weeks now, and I’ll admit - it’s actually fun to set up. The design is simple, and it feels satisfying to put everything in place. The only reason I took off a star is because I’m not totally sure it’s reducing mosquitoes yet. It seems to help a little, but I haven’t seen a dramatic difference. I’m hoping it just needs more time to kick in. Still, it’s easy to use, good quality and worth trying if you want something low effort for mosquito control.

Easy to change out

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't take a picture before I used a refill. Easy to change in the product. Does it work? We aren't completely sure as Florida has been having a weird spring that has caused it to be cooler and dry. Less mosquitoes so less for us to test on. We have noticed less but can't completely say it is from the product.

Easy-to-use refills for a clever system

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill & Prevent Refill Kits 2-Pack is an easy-to-use replacement for the "bands" that come with the system. You just have to replace the band each month to continue to contaminate mosquito larvae. They are easy to dispose of in the same packaging, and they consistently work for about a month. I think I will have less mosquitos this year with this clever system.

Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill & Prevent Refill

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ortho Home Defense mosquito kill refill kits 2 pack is a convenient option for keeping mosquito control going. The effectiveness is noticeable, with fewer mosquitoes after use. It provides good coverage for outdoor areas, and the system stays relatively clean with minimal mess. The value is solid since you get two refills, and I appreciate the focus on safety when used as directed.

Safe mosquito killer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Ortho Home Defense Mosquito Kill and Prevent Kit has been great so far. I placed it on our patio at our restaurant that we own and it has prevented pesky mosquitoes from ruining our customers meals. I like that is easy to use and that it safe without any toxic chemicals. The container is easy to maintain and change out refill pads while still keeping a safe and clean environment. The starter kit is a great value and comes with a refill.

Low maintenance and works!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Living in a warm and wet climate this is a must year round. We use it while camping and hanging outside. While it does have a larger footprint than other methods, it does the job well. It’s effective at trapping pesky bugs and after the initial investment refills are cost effective. It was easy to put together! Would recommend for areas that are big prone.

Good to have a replacement!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven’t used the replacement yet since I’m still using the one that was included in the starter kit however I was happy to get a two pack refill for this item. I put it near our fire pit and it seems to be working well so far. Excited to see how it works through the summertime.

Easy to replace

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These replacements are easy to install and great to have on hand when needed to change out the old refill. This includes two packs of refill. They can be found at any of my local grocery stores and are individually packed and easy stored.

Easy to apply

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like that the Ortho Refills kit makes it easy to use and simple application to apply to the bucket. Good performance and gets the mosquitos from multiplying. The duration is set for one month which is good enough to get them out.
