Hot Shot Ant Roach & Spider Killer 17.5 Oz, Crisp Linen Scent

As someone who hates spiders (particularly the thick wolf ones in the pnw) and is also in the lower 5’ range I often find myself in a standoff with spiders who have climbed up my wall to where I can’t reach. Just one little spritz of this knocks them off the wall and kills then pretty quick. Immediately after it hits them it also subdues the spider so I am able to manually squish it after it hits the ground quick. As much as I don’t like spiders I don’t want them dying a prolonged poison death if avoidable. It smells ok, it’s pretty strong but it’s not awful and it does vaguely smell of linen — I mean it’s literally an insect poison, it’s not gonna smell like nothing. For ~$5 it’s a great deal and it does what it says it will (at least on the spider front). It’s easy to use and a good item to have in any home.

Perfect product for 5 acre mini Farm.

I started using this 6 weeks ago to rid my balcony of spiders and am pleasantly surprised by the results. It reliably kills on contact and truly seems to deter them, though not immediately. For the first couple weeks, I had to douse the area liberally each time I wished to enjoy a spiderless balcony, but they gradually appeared less frequently after that. Nowadays, I only lightly spray the perimeter a few times a week, and that may not even be strictly necessary. After seeing several big and scary specimens a day for years, I haven't seen one in weeks, and I intend to keep it that way. I do wish the stream was a bit more concentrated so that I could aim from farther away, but this stuff isn't a pain to use up close like similar products I've tried. It doesn't produce much blowback unless it's very windy, and the odor isn't super toxic. In fact, it smells more like a cleaning agent than a bug spray, and the scent doesn't linger long either. I briefly leave the area after use just to be safe and have never encountered issues or side effects. I can't say that it lasts as long as claimed since I've continued spraying sporadically for peace of mind, but I'm satisfied with the current state of things. I haven't even had to repurchase yet since the first bottle is still going strong. This is the least expensive yet most effective option I've tried, so it's a great value in my view.

Works good. Kills on contact. Smells bad but that’s to be expected..

This works! Cheaper than raid. Kills the ants and spiders for sure. Not sure about the roaches though.

Good

Works well

Very effective

Not effective... even after few days and even shortly after spraying cockroachs were still going around where I sprayed
