Quality control problems
I purchased two of these today for my front and back yard. I have used this and other brands for years with no problems. Both containers had really bad leak issues. I tried on both hoses with the same problem. This was a complete waist of time, and a complete waiste of $21.97 on my Home Depot card. Ortho fix this!

    Just bought this today, the design has to be from China
    I itghtened both ends of my hose, and made sure was secure. The on/off switch is ridiculous and the minute I turned the gaskets within the top started leaking, even after tightening it more, the most it would project out was six feet, and the design of the hose attachment makes it quite clear it can only be used on flower beds, so if you're trying to use this on tall plants, you're out of luck.

      Bottle of Junk
      What a joke, on us, unfortunately. Doesn't take out the bugs, and the bottle states it will do up to 5,300 sq ft; however, mine was empty at less than 4,000. The ONLY good point is the bottle and spray mechanism are easy to use, but if you have bugs and a larger size yard, keep on looking. Missed our expectations BIG time, and unfortunately that's become the case for Ortho products more and more in recent years. My bad for wasting hard earned $$ on it.

          If you don't mind soaking YOURSELF in insect killer
          Bought to treat a tree that had ants and aphids, which is a listed use for this product. Multiple problems: First, the hose connection, no matter how many times I re-did it and secured it, spewed out soaking ME while I was trying to soak the tree. Second strike was the distribution. The nozzle is made in such a way that it sprays wide - great for lawns, great for parts of the tree, but if you want to use the hose's power to spray UP higher, you're just out of luck. Because the stream/nozzle doesn't adjust, there's no way to focus the spray in, from wide application to narrower and more powerful. If the nozzle was adjustable, it'd make all the difference in the world, but it isn't. Third strike was the need to go shower immediately after to remove the bug spray from yourself!

            One bottle allowed me to sufficiently treat my backyard which is roughly 3,000 sqft. After application I did notice a substantial decrease in mosquitos. I still am dealing with some but defiantly less. The bottle states you can apply it again and I will be doing that.
