Works Great, but Be Careful!
4 of 5 stars
By Chris in Falls Church, VA on 08/10/2010

This product has a ruthless odor, stronger than most aerosols such as CB-80 or P.I. and if used indoors can smell bad and choke everyone out of the room. Be sure to use your PPE and/or open windows wh…

Oh my gosh
5 of 5 stars
By Phil in Raleigh, NC on 04/04/2010

I can't believe they now have an aerosol spray for Phantom. This is basically an indoor version of Termidor, which is the best stuff for ants. I used to work for a pest control company and ants were t…

Expert Response  Expert response:

Dear Debby, Phantom is made to have a very slow kill because it allows the insects that crawl over treated areas to pick it up on their bodies and return to the colony or nest. Then, through social interactions, the insecticide is spread to the other insects. It can take a few days to kill and will not kill immediately even if the insects are sprayed directly. Smushing the insects will defeat the purpose of using this product. You should choose Phantom for ants, roaches and other social insects. If you want a fast kill, you should choose a pyrethrin based product such as Microcare. That product will kill on contact but it does not leave behind a residual to keep killing after it has dried. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance. We appreciate your feedback and your business!

Useless on bedbugs
1 of 5 stars
By Lynxsl in Brooklyn, NY on 07/31/2011

Unless Sprayed directly on the Bedbug, does nothing. Also leaves a white powdery residue which is barely water solvent.

Not that good on roach infestation. Roaches came back after a few days. Cheaper products did just as good, I just thought this product would last longer

It's the stuff
5 of 5 stars
By Keith in IL on 05/13/2015

This is the same stuff the people with an O use. It works as expected. A little is all that is needed. I bought two cans for my own use and it may last me 10 years for my 2 story 4 bedroom.
