Customer Reviews for Essentria All Purpose Insecticide Concentrate

Do NOT waste your money on this product. Product assistance recommended this to me for spraying for flies, etc around horses because it's safe. It probably is safe, but I wasted over $100 on a worthless product. I expressed my dissatisfaction and was told to increase the concentration level. Still able to spray onto flies on the wall of the barn. You can watch the same flies re-land on the same area. Not only is there no residual but the "knockdown" is non-existent. DoMyOwn has been good with other products but got me to waste money in this situation. Not a happy customer at the moment!

Purchased as an alternative to some of the standard chemical mosquito misting formulas, since we have a baby on the way and another crawling all over the place. I didn't want them ingesting anything brought into the house on the floor. This oil formula is awful. Citronella candles work better. We've been running it through our mister 6x a day including peak mosquito hours, diluted 1:1 with water. We've seen more mosquitoes in the last month since we've tried it than we have all summer. Also, typically the other chemicals we've use deter or kill other critters--we continue to see tons of spiders, ants, roaches etc. I wouldn't buy again and wouldn't recommend even wasting money to try it because of its alternative label.

  Expert response:
Thank you for your comments! The rate to use Essentria All Purpose in an automatic misting system would be 0.5 to 3 oz per gallon of water, or 27.5 to 165 oz per 55 gal tank. This should remain agitated with the addition of a surfactant and is stable up to one month. We would recommend the IC3 formulation for you, which is still very safe around people and pets, but which will have longer residual. Be sure to follow the label directions for use in your equipment: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/essentria-ic3-insecticide-concentrate-p-1954.html

Probably one of the most easy to use insecticide products with no concerns during application. Instant noticeable departure of bug, ticks and other insects. Definitely worth the price.
