Customer Reviews for PT Ultracide Pressurized Flea Insecticide

In the past I've had good luck with Ultracide but this time it did not seem to work as well.  I would buy again though.

I had a flea problem with my dog, and this was recommended to me as what professionals use anyways if you hire an exterminator. I bought two cans (good prompt service with free shipping! no problem there) and applied it on a Sunday morning. It involves vacuuming your entire house, removing all pets for 4-6 hours, then spraying. It was easy enough to spray BUT, the sprayer only works in a "down pattern". It seems to diffuse the product so much you can not direct it very well. Also, the can states it covers something like 3000 square feet, which would be doing my whole house once, then half again. In fact, one can BARELY did my basement alone (800 square feet) and ran out totally. The other can was only enough to do PORTIONS of the rest of the house. It has little odor, and disappeared completely by the time we returned 6 hours later. Seems to have worked so far. However, to re-treat the house would actually take 3-4 cans, making it kinda expensive.

The product seemed to work after spraying the second time.

Based on other reviews, I expected more from this product. For something advertised to cover over 2600sf, I only wanted to fumigate 180sf. I went through almost 2 cans, and there are STILL fleas in my kennel. I'm going to try Diatomaceous Earth next. Wish me luck. Disappointed.

  Expert response:
Please note that if you used 2 cans of Ultracide in a 180 sq ft area, you are over using and wasting your product. Flea control can take 4-6 weeks because of the life cycle of the fleas. Treatments should be done every 14 days until the fleas are no longer present. Please take a few minutes to read our flea control guide so you can better understand how to implement a successful flea control program: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-fleas-a-483.html Please let us know if you have any questions.

I have used this spray numerous times with varying results. On the whole it really works but you need to also purchase and use the treatment that goes on the pet. It needs to be re-applied several times as well.

It's fairly effective stuff, but doesn't totally eliminate the lil devils. Need to spray with the can upside down. Customer service was excellent.

I am waiting to see how effective it is. I sprayed it on my pool deck and plants yesterday.
