Wand Issue
By Dale on 08/25/2019
I have used this product for years and have never had any issue with it doing a good job. My complaint is with the wand. I have the new battery type wand and this is my third unit that has had a bad wand. It works for a couple of months then quits. I have changed batteries and it is still dead. I am getting ready to just start putting it in pressure tanks and spraying from there. The wand needs to be researched and determine why they are not lasting long. The only pull handle worked better than this new design.

Can' tell

I hear it's a pretty effective product by those who were able to get it out of its container. Seriously, your Ortho wand is a joke. Only wish you offered the old fashioned pump spray. Unfortunately, our landfills are filling fast with battery operated Ortho sprayers.

It really works

The insecticides found in the Ortho Home Defense are not harmful to plants, however you would need to keep it off of and outside the dripline of any edible vegetation such as a vegetable garden, herbs, or fruit trees.

The Ortho Home Defense MAX Insect Killer Indoor & Perimeter is not labeled to be used as a broadcast spray. Ortho Home Defense MAX Insect Killer Indoor & Perimeter should only be applied to cracks and crevices indoors and to the exterior perimeter foundation of the house. This product can be applied around baseboards where carpet is present, but it is not meant to be sprayed over all of the carpet. You want to make sure you apply it according to the product label and avoid any excessive spraying. We would recommend cleaning your carpet.
