Customer Reviews for Essentria IC3 Insecticide Concentrate

I was disappointed with this product because I read all the reviews prior ro purchasing it to use on my dock. I appreciate that it is friendly for use around the water but it didn't seem to kill any of the spiders on the dock.

The product worked okay for ants but did nothing to get rid of spiders which was the reason I bought it.

Only has about a 2-3 week residual. Almost completely ineffective against ants and black widows. Only 2 good things about this product: 1. Application on bushes and trees BUT it is oil based so it will burn the leaves in high temperatures. 2. No gov't restrictions for run off in damp weather. Other than that...bleh.

The product failed to kill or discourage spiders on my boat dock. In addition the solution ruined the seals in my pump sprayer.

We did it exactly as the instructions said and it's horrible for cockroaches. Also if you open it and use it, you can't return it. Even though it's falsely advertised. Not happy.

Purchased and received in short amount of time. First day mixed it up pretty stout to spray exterior of home and deck. 3oz per gallon in pump up sprayer. Sprayed perimeter of the house first. Then the lawn. Next had a couple of wasp nest to take care of. One under the deck, the other in an egress window well. The egress was first. Pumped up the sprayer and lifter the cover and hosed them down completely covering the next and quite a few wasps. I shut the lid slowly and moved back. Five or six came flying out. About the same stayed on the nest. I figured being all natural it may not have have knock down power but would eventually kill everything sprayed. Same experience happened with the other nest. Waited 30 minutes then went back to check. Still alive and well. Also sprayed some small spiders in the garage. Hosed them down pretty good too. I thought maybe it would do the trick on them as they scattered quickly. The next morning I walked through the lawn and the gnats and mosquitoes were still flying around. Wasps still alive, spiders we back in the same place before I sprayed. I really wanted this spray to work but I think it needs some work. On a positive note the smell is nice and last for days.

Kills ants on contact. Keeps ants and mosquitos away for about a day and a half. Have to keep spraying just about daily. Spiders population is about the same. This was used for the back yard in So Cal area. Still can't really hang out in yard and ants are still partying.

I have sprayed my boat dock five times this summer and it does kill spiders when sprayed directly but the spiders hiding in crevices are active the next day. There is not an apparent residual protection.
