        After applying the spray, what are the recommendations for ventilation? Should the doors to the rooms be closed? Fans set up? Vents to the rest of the house shut off? How long should we stay out of the room?

            Had the house professionally sprayed but need to go in to clear some things out. I was told there may be some lingering ones still alive. Can I spray this on my pants / shoes to repel any living ones? I don't want to carry them home.

                I picked up the Hot Shot 1‑Gallon Bed Bug Killer as a preventative treatment, and it’s been effective and easy to use. The spray nozzle gives good coverage, and I appreciate that it targets both bugs and eggs. The product doesn’t have an overwhelming smell and dries quickly. After using it consistently, I’ve noticed a clear reduction in activity. It definitely meets my expectations and gives me peace of mind

                Used it today. Id suggest eye and mask protection. It is pretty rough on the eyes (says on the label) and you'll cough for the first minute or two while applying (if not wearing a mask). If youre a single guy like me, no pets, no kids, etc. Be careful, you will get stupid high off of the fumes until the stuff dries (it tells you to wait until its dry until you return to area, so its my bad) that being said, dont use too much, ventilate, and go find something to do for a few hours. Effectiveness (for me personally) is a 5. My recommendations/constructive criticism: the sprayer and hose is lame. I recommend purchasing a proper pump sprayer. Much much easier and less mess, as the spray nozzle equipped, you'll get the product on your hands. Other than gloves, unavoidable. Hope I've helped.

                  Oh brother get real
                  I have to tell you that I use this product today for the first time because I had an outbreak in my bedroom that I believe my boyfriend trampled in from his house in Darby Pennsylvania. I purchased it from home Depot on Baltimore Pike in Springfield Pennsylvania a store that I like but I have to tell you I sprayed this directly on a couple of bed bugs underneath my mattress and underneath my box spring in the corners and I can tell you that the bed bugs look like they were taking a shower and it it seemed to have absolutely no effect I watch them for almost 3 minutes and it did not seem to do anything. The smell is so bad that as soon as you start spraying it you start choking and you have to get out it's that old exterminating fluid smell from the 50s and 60s. It just is smells very badly and I can't see how you could use this around children pets or anybody who has chronic asthma and or throat problems cuz it would start to make them choke so if someone older has a choking problem I would not put this in the same area they're going to be sitting near. it's heartbreaking that everything we buy in America they water down whether it's deodorant or iced tea everything we purchase is watered down that it does nothing whatsoever in the hopes that will go back and buy it again and again and again saying oh well I had them so good I had to keep buying it again and again and again and I think it's just the way for these companies like hot shot to get away with taking gorging America. It just doesn't seem to do anything the last time I used one by Harris it comes in a big yellow container and that is amazing that worked it really works good this don't do nothing but smell and make you choke and it doesn't seem to affect them whatsoever what's the point here? Save your money. By the one by a company called Harris it's yellow that's also sold at home Depot but I haven't seen it sometimes it comes in a kick.

                    strong smelling
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Make sure to have a well vented area or a fan going when using this spray. It has a really heavy chemical smell to it so use carefully. Great thing about this is you just open it up and start squeezing the spray handle. It is simple and easy to use .

                          Works great
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this spray in the bedrooms of my house to prevent bedbugs and to kill dust mites. I also have dogs that sleep in my bedroom and this kills fleas as well. It is easy to use and has a 2 foot hose. I sprayed it along my baseboards, around the seams of my mattress, my pets beds and under my furniture. I haven't seen any bugs so I think it is working well.

                              Very Effective!
                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried this Hot Shot Bed Bug Spray with great results! I really like that it is very easy to use, it comes with an attachable spray nozzle plastic hose that is very convenient and facilitates spraying. I had a bed bug issue in the basement and one bedroom after a friend dropped off some furniture for us to hold for a while some didn't fit so we brought some upstairs and the whole nightmare began, so we followed the clear instructions and began spraying the matresses making sure we got the crevasses, every crack, a good spraying without saturating and allowed to dry for couple of days, then repeated again within two days and let it dry, it didn't stain the fabric, and the odor was gone within a day or so, we closely inspected for weeks and seems totally clear from bugs so I would say this spray definitely kills eggs not just live bugs. Very pleased with how effective this product is, highly recommend!

                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having 3 kids, one of them are always on the go. The thought of one of them bringing home bed bugs scares me. I keep a bottle of Hot Shot Bed Bug Killer for the “just in case” moments. Not only will it kill the bug, but it also kills the eggs as well. It has a sprayer attached to the bottle for an easy application. It can also be used to treat fleas. It does not smell or leave stains. I highly recommend!
