            Excellent
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy cleanup. Used frequently in certain areas. The scent is great and it is easy for storage. Spiders never come near my home again. I would definitely buy this product.

              Works well simple and easy !
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works pretty well especially with spiders. Definitely had less than I've had in a while. Overall definitely a great product. Simple and easy to use.

                Great reliable pest control
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hotshot is definitely a reliable brand of pest control. Works great to get the pesky spiders. Now I've never had to run into a scorpion and I truly hope it stays the same way, I'm sure though if needed this would do the job. I'm personally not a fan of the smell but this is not for pleasure and its to deal with pests.

                  Effective product
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works! Aim, spray, and get rid of spiders! We had a lot of spiders around our barn and house because we live in the country. This helped eliminate the problem. It’s about the same price as other pest repellent and it’s a big bottle that lasts awhile. Overall an effective product.

                    Kills quick, no death smell!
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hard to take a good picture and rating since it’s winter and in Arizona most bugs are dead, but it did kill one spider very quickly and didn’t smell like death. Can’t wait to use for scorpion season in the valley.!

                      A great investment for protection against spiders
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging was secure. I was very pleased with how it worked on the spiders outside on my front porch. I’m glad I don’t have deal with scorpions but I do believe that it would destroy them also. The scent is strong and works on other insects too. Definitely worth the price
                      by
                        Works
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love how effective this is at killing spiders and ants. Works perfect for me and my family my neighbors also use this and love it. I would highly recommend for spiders especially spiders.

                          Good spider killer
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works and it’s easy to use. I’m in central Texas and there are a lot of insects, so glad it works up to 16 weeks on other insects too. I haven’t seen any scorpions but spiders are goners with this spray
                          by
                            Great product
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This worked really well on the crepy crawlers in our basement. The odor wasn't too strong and this was very effective. Will buy in the future if needed.
