Very Effective Residual
By Anonymous on 07/14/2013
This is a very effective residual. Having experience with CY-Kick, I can tell you that 221L will terminate a bug within a few seconds while CY-Kick takes a little longer. They both work, but 221L seems to be a little more effective. It would be good to know which one has the longer residual effect. In my opinion that is probably more important than immediate stopping power. I would like the piece of mind knowing that the residual I've sprayed will last a very long time.

PT 221L Residual Aerosol Spray
By Dennis on 10/21/2010
I have found this to be the best residual pesticide on the market today. A little will placed spray will keep your home,business or kitchen free of many of those nasty creepy-crawlers that the local Health Dept. frowns on when inspecting. I found 60-75 days is the norm for a barrier with PT 221L. I will continue to purchase this product as long as its available!

PT 221L Residual Aerosol - 17.5 oz. can
By Brenda on 01/29/2014
I live in a rural area, and every winter, spiders and roaches come inside the house. After treating a room with the PT 22iL the roaches began to die and the others run outside. The product has been very effective, has NO ODOR, is non greasy, does not stain and is simple to use. This is a professional grade pest control product, and I will always be your customer.

Kills almost instantly!
By Laurel on 12/03/2015
After battling these roaches for the last few months, I have to say I'm pretty amazed by this stuff! I may have been a little over zealous, since I just used about half a can in my little kitchen, but I want them GONE! This is supposed to be a spot treatment for cracks, all along the back of the counter, under the fridge. I didn't leave any place left for them to hide. As I was spraying, I started seeing a few roaches coming out, so I sprayed them directly. In less than a minute, the ones I sprayed were dead, and within a couple minutes more, others that had walked through where I sprayed were also on their backs, twitching while they breathed their last pesky little breaths. Hopefully this stuff is as potent once it dries! I may need to order another can to do the rest of my apartment, this time a little more sparingly. I just can't stand them in the kitchen...I've lived here 3 months and still have all my dishes in boxes and generally order food because I don't want to cook with them in there. But if the first 10 minutes of having this product applied is any indication, I'll be able to finally finish moving in very soon!

carpenter bees
By Anonymous on 06/08/2013
The carpenter bees found the new barn I had built and was taking up residency. I HAD TRIED THE TRADITIONAL PRODUCTS WITHOUT SUCCESS. When I sprayed the PT 221L in the bee holes they started backing out and falling to the ground as quickly as I left each hole. WOW was that a good sight. My barn is safe.

Not what I was hoping for
By Holly on 03/22/2017
I live in NC and at the beginning of each season change, we get Palmetto bugs trying to move in. I bought this spray hoping for instant kill on bugs I see tromping in under the front door.Roaches , palmetto bugs etc. I sprayed them and nothing happened other than slowing their parade. Eventually I pummeled them with the can itself and got instant results. I really hoped this stuff would be the bug assassin. I cannot have a bug get sprayed and crawl off and die , because If not cleaned up , the carcass has viable and hatching eggs.So if you don't mind spending 20 bucks on a can to whop bugs with,then give this a try.
Expert response:
Thank you for your comments! We are sorry that you did not receive the results that you expected when using the PT 221L Insecticide. This is a residual product, which means that it continues to kill insects that contact the treated areas even after the spray has dried. (Insects contacted with the direct spray will still die relatively quickly.) The trade-off for residual sprays is that they will take a little longer to kill the target insects, even from the direct spray. There just is not a spray that will work as quickly as a shoe or other blunt object, but if you are looking for a knockdown spray, then we would suggest a pyrethrin spray such as CB-80 Aerosol:

Bed Bugs
By Don on 10/22/2013
Finally something that works!
By R.c on 09/20/2014
I have literally tried every type of ant spray in book and this stuff has been the only thing that has ever worked for me with every type of ant. It both repels and kills ants for up to six months. Buy it now! It takes a while for shipping so the sooner the better, for this reason it's good to have a can or two on hand always.

Disappointed
By Shonell on 08/01/2017
Bought this in July, but only recently started using it... but I must say I am really disappointed. We had a roach problem thanks to our landlord's laziness towards treating the septic. This was recommended to us but VERY hard to find in my area, however, we got lucky and borrowed it from a friend to try out and it worked like a charm. BUT the canister that we bought online has just been nothing but a disaster. The dispenser thingy sticks and just sprays all over the place. As a result of that, most of the product has been wasted. I would have given it 5 stars because the product does work but, can't get to use it properly because of the defect. Oh and the straw thing that was sent along with the canister does not attach. SIGH

Former cy-kick user
By Kayla on 03/27/2024
I live in a townhouse where the landlord does NOT spray all of the apartments so I constantly have to have some type of commercial bug spray in my home to not have the little annoying pest in our apartment. I done all kinds of research when Amazon quit selling cy-kick and landed up here purchasing the pt 221. This company is very fast with shipping which is a huge plus! I took it outside immediately to the trash bins and it killed almost immediately any bug that came in its path. I’m getting ready to spray down my entire apartment but I do have very high hopes for this product and will update with results. Thanks domyown.com for the incredible shipping speeds. And also for shipping the product in great condition with no leakage and the little straw to be able to correctly use the product (unlike a lot of other websites) I will continue to purchase from this company!

Ant killer!
By Linda on 10/29/2021
This spray is fantastic! I have these tiny sugar ants every year in South Florida and they are impossible to get rid of and this spray has done it. Haven't seen an ant in over a month! Great product and the smell isn't bad either and it goes away quickly. I highly recommend.

PT 221L - gets the job done
By Sandy on 10/02/2020
Great Perimeter Spray for Ants
By Chris on 08/14/2020
We use this whenever we have issues with ants coming into a window or doorway. A nice, thick layer (a lot comes out when sprayed) puts a boundary down that says in no uncertain terms, "You shall not pass." We were constantly killing scout ants that would wander onto us while we sat on our patio furniture. So, I laid down a barrier all around, and no more ants. When they start appearing in weeks or months, we just repeat. Finally went for the case of 12 since this is our go-to.

Great item
By Donna on 06/14/2024
good
By Ariana on 11/26/2016
I haven't seen any bugs or ticks in the house since i sprayed it. On top of that, i expected there to be a stronger smell that would follow after the spray but not a lot came out. So the smell strength was medium so i wouldn't recommend for you to spray the house with the entire family around but it shouldn't make you feel uncomfortable.

I have chronic allergies, so the smell reminds me of Raid or something. It's unpleasant. Doesn't work as well as I was expecting. But it works.

Works Great!!
By Sonia on 01/08/2018
Fast delivery!! Used it immediately and product did what it claims. Have been recommending it to others as well. Happily gave away what I had left to someone that really needed it so now I have to get more to have on hand. Works on any creepy crawly critter in my house!
