Customer Reviews for B&G Sprayer 1 Gallon 18 in. Wand & Extenda-Ban Valve (N124-S-18)

I have always bought top quality products and the B&G 1 Gallon Sprayer conforms. When using expensive pesticides, it is important to be able to efficiently and safely apply the product. The sprayer has an adjustable head that allows pinpoint accuracy. All the professionals use this product for one reason, dependability. I highly recommend this product to anyone doing their own pest control.

Continual usage for 10-12 hours of working a day 6 days a week and only $7 worth of parts needed because of my own abuse (grabbing it from my truck by the hose). This product vs. your 30$ or 60$ sprayers from Home Depot or Ace Hardware can't compare. Quality of spray: Most plastic sprayers I've used have issues with leakage. Either while you walk the arm sway causes leaking, or after you have finished spraying a drop or 2 of drippage which doesn't seem like a lot but when you are spraying a fine mist on an area with wood for example and a drop or two is left it CAN cause damage, but the fine mist dries quick enough that it doesn't. The amount of pressure and how easy it is to generate with these sprayers is amazing in comparison to many counterparts. I know I can get a good 20 or 25 feet with the fine jet stream and have it do it consistently. Last but not least obvious durability - its made of all metal the thing doesn't really bat an eye if you mistakenly drop it, or kick it by accident, bump it into things, etc. Down side to this is if you're not careful it can take other things out.

I tried less expensive sprayers and was totally disappointed. I talked with a professional who explained to me the difference. The B&G is not only made like a M1 Tank it features a NO DRIP end. The quality of the case is top notch, made like something from the 1940s. The real thing that makes this sprayer is the fact that it does NOT drip. All the other ones are terrible. I spray and a stream comes out and the nozzle drips all over the floors and walls. It gets everywhere even on me. When you're using chemicals that is NOT a good thing. So far when I used this, once the spray comes out the nozzle closes off and there is no drip. This is a professional sprayer and worth every penny. I expect to have it for years and years. You only need to change the seals. It also has re-sale value. You can sell this and get a nice amount back for it. Don't waste your money on a cheaper sprayer you will be sorry, it's dangerous to get those chemicals on you. It's a safety issue too. B&G = the best.

I am not a pest control professional, but I am someone who enjoys using quality tools. The B&G 1 Gallon Sprayer is such a tool and represents the best in material utilization and craftsmanship. Best on my experience, this sprayer provides a very controlled delivery of pesticide or herbicide. The standard spray tip affords for basically two spray patterns, albeit there are four orifices for applying a product that is compatible with the stainless and brass components. Two orifices will deliver a fine and course stream, while the other two deliver a fine and course fan-like pattern. Do not confuse the latter with a cone-like spray pattern. To adjust the spray pattern, simply loosen the knurled lock nut surrounding the spray tip and rotate to the pattern desired. Whereas this sprayer is applicable for both indoor and outdoor use, it excels at applying pesticides indoors due to the fine stream and fan-like spray patterns. As 99% of all pest control problems originate from the outside of a home, a more economical sprayer alternative may be prudent. Another feature that may prove useful is a knurled locking bolt located behind the trigger mechanism that can be tightened to prevent the trigger from operating, thereby preventing an accidental discharge of fluid product while spraying in a home or transporting the sprayer. In summary, this is an outstanding sprayer for the professional, tool enthusiast, or someone who demands the best. If you have deep pockets or your budget permits, then buy the best if your conscience permits. Otherwise, most any economically priced sprayer will still solve your pest control problems.

I bought this item for professional use and love it. It may not be for everybody but if you want to do the job right like a professional than use this. Top notch product at the best price around.

Very high quality product. My only complaint is with my choice of wands. I am 6-feet tall and I find myself having to stoop a lot to get the wand tip where I want it. If I had it to do over again I would go with the 24-inch wand rather than the 18-inch wand. Do your own pest control, you can do a much better job at a much lower cost than the pros.  I highly recommend DoMyOwnPestControl.com. They have an excellent website that is easy to navigate and their customer service is second to none.

This product is in a class of its own. Every component is just pure quality, and it performs exceedingly well. I have used it five times in the two weeks since receiving it, with absolutely no problems. I have been impressed at how long it stays pressurized with only a dozen pumps. It should be a piece of equipment that outlasts me. Well worth the price. In fact, it pays for itself since I can now buy concentrates and mix them myself instead of buying pre-mixes that have those horrible attached battery operated sprayers.

I bought this sprayer primarily for personal use after having owned one of the plastic sprayers from Home Depot for many years. While that plastic sprayer has served me well, this B&G is clearly superior. The spray fan and wand are better, the choice of 4 types of spray is nice (2 fan, regular and fine, 2 levels of streams), no drip wand. The plastic sprayer will get your pesticide delivered and if budget is a concern, you may want to stay with that option. If money isn't an issue and you are willing to pay for quality which I believe will last for many years, go for this one...you will not be disappointed. As for me, I plan on beginning a regular spray maintenance routine, so not having to pay labor cost for a task I can do myself saves the money required to purchase this level of quality. As a bonus, this purchase from domyownpestcontrol was my first, and certainly won't be my last. The quality of the shipping materials and the quick shipping time, plus how useful and intuitive the website is has turned me into a loyal customer.

Have been in pest control since 1992 and have used the same B&G since then. Do not leave it out in cold weather with fluid in it or the brass wand will split.

The bitterness of poor quality and poor service remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten. I bought another brand of "industrial" sprayer, pure junk leaked and dripped all over house and stream was way to large. Spoke to DoMyOwnPestControl on phone and they suggested the B&G and refunded me for the other product. I couldnt be happier, truly makes spraying poison at my house easy. A must have if you are handling your own pest control, this is what the pros use.

I have used the same b&g sprayer for 12 years now and i do pest control for a living i service 20 to 25 homes a day it is worth every penny you spend i do recommend. The longer wand. My dad who has been in the business for 30 years has also used his same can the only down side the tips do clog up from time to time so make sure. You give it a good cleaning from time to time also try to your best to replace the cable inside the wand every couple of years but hands down you will not find a better hand sprayer

Purchased this B&G to replace the B&G I've used professionally for the past 26+years. Been in the business since 1987 & use this equipment 5 days a week. Great price & fast, free shipping. Can't beat it.

Excellent sprayer, the head has 4 patterns that work flawlessly, it's also light weight, simple and handles very well. It uses way less chemical than those cheap sprayers, I literally use 1/2 the chemical now. B&G is the only way to go, definitely a life time investment! Furthermore, all the parts are replaceable and well built, built to last! This is a very robust sprayer!! DoMyOwnPestControl price matched and shipped the sprayer well packed and quickly, Thanks to you all!

I searched all over the Internet to find the best price on a B&G sprayer and this is the best price by at least $20 bucks and the others that were cheaper or close to this price didn't come with a spray tip. The B&G Sprayer is the best Sprayer on the market and this is the place to get one.

I think most people want tools that perform with excellence, built to last and are able to replace a part if needed. It is a professional tool. This sprayer will not disappoint if you will clean it after use and get familiar with some occasional maintainance through time. Call your dealer if you have questions about the sprayer or certain applications. None of us know everything.This is my recommendation for those who want American made quality even if its for home use as is mine. The service and delivery was great as well with DoMyOwnPestControl.com. Randel

The sprayer is most expensive but also the most well made I have ever owned. Does an exceptional job indoors with its drip less spray wand. Useful spray patterns make quick work of product application. If you are the type of person (like me) who would rather purchase a tool once have it last a lifetime than this is it.

I wasted 65 bucks on a cheaper sprayer and was very disappointed. I bought this one and was very pleased. If you go cheap you get cheap. The sprayer doesn't leak or drip and sprays a very light mist which doesn't cause runs on interior walls.

This is by far and away the best sprayer you can buy, period. I'm a professional and this sprayer is in and out of my truck several times a day. Its tough and built like a tank. Its not cheap but just like everything is in life, you get what you pay for. The pressure gets relieved as soon as I'm finished with it and the seals seam to last longer.

That moment, when you place a professional-grade tool in your hand and realize you've been using junk your whole life: that is this sprayer in a nutshell. Upon unboxing it and pulling out the spray wand, you can tell how well it's built. The spray patterns are precise. I had some reservations about getting the 18" v. the 24" wand, but it's a good length for reaching high and in close quarters (I'm 6' tall). As others have said, this is worth every penny I paid for it. I was paying $90 a quarter for a service, and having to call them back for repeat sprayings outdoors. Now it's me, this sprayer, and 96oz of Talstar P versus all the little critters. This site also had the best prices on everything I ordered. I'll definitely be doing business again.

If your looking for a high quality sprayer that will last for years, this is the sprayer for you. I like the 18" wand on it. It is long enough so you don't have to bend over but not too long where it heats hard to Handle.

I'm a professional and B&G is the best on the market. Brass moving parts, no plastic, built to last & if a part goes bad in 5 years replacements are easy to find. For the average homeowner to use I'd say it's too pricey but hey if you've got the money it's the best.

I have probably spent of the years as much money on cheaper sprayers. The problem is that you just can not control the amount of material that comes out of the sprayer. Also the nozzle gives you for different spray patterns "I put a little black mark on the nozzle just to get my bearings. The only issue that I find is when I spray with some dissoluble powders you really have to make sure that everything is mixed really well or the fine spray will sometimes get clogged. This is the real deal!!!!!
