User questions & answers

Question:	can you just unscrew the cap and use a regular spray head on the bottle
Answer:	I had an indoor flea problem. I didn't use this stuff but I bombed the entire house with a bug bomb. I may have even used two. It did nothing. I ended up using diatomaceous earth and it took a while and a few applications but it knocked them gone. I love this stuff. It is so safe to use, I was even able to put in bottom of our bunny cages (who were suffering from the fleas).
Question:	Is this one gallon
Answer:	The 12 month claim is associated with ants, roaches and spiders. Spray it once a year and it is guaranteed to keep them out. It also kills many other listed bugs but the 12 month claim does not apply to them.
Question:	What is the difference between ortho home defense indoor and perimeter2 and the ortho home defense max
Answer:	Just to be on the safe side, I would make sure pets and infants aren't in the treated area, when actually being treated. However, I haven't seen any side effects in my dog.
Question:	Do you get two refills or is the '2' part of the name? Tia
Answer:	No, you need to purchase the Ortho® Home Defense® Dual-Action Bed Bug Killer. That should do the trick. Hope this helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	The wand on the bottle died even though I cahnged batteries. Any way I can purchase the wand only
Answer:	DNA (Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid) and RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) are naturally occurring molecules in all living cells and organisms. So we naturally eat DNA and RNA every day, be it from an apple, bread, meat, broccoli etc. Our body recycles DNA and RNA molecules because we constantly need to synthesize our own DNA and RNA. DNA is best known for making up our genes. RNA is best known for being template molecules that are translated into proteins. But there are many other essential functions of DNA and RNA. Every time we buy food in the grocery store the label lists the grams (or percentage) of fat, carbohydrates, protein etc. DNA and RNA don't belong in these categories, just like water, minerals, vitamins etc. DNA and RNA are acids and they could always be listed on basically every food item but nobody usually lists it because DNA and RNA make up only a tiny percentage of the cells, among other reasons.
Question:	Will this kill lantern flies
Answer:	Hello Jennifer. Yes they are non-GMO.
Question:	Is this product pet safe
Answer:	Yes they are.
Question:	Is this safe on bushes
Answer:	I only take one a day and can tell the difference in my energy level. Unfortunately, I have not lost weight. Maybe I should start taking 3. Already on my second bottle.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this home defense max? description says it is but photo shows only home defense and it's not the max
Answer:	I use it to spray nematodes. Works just fine.
Question:	What are the active ingredients in this product
Answer:	I am very satisfied do not be surprised at the first water valve turn on as it may leak for a few seconds. Mine no longer does this. Depending on your water pressure you can spray upwards about nine to ten feet.I can reach the roof line of my ranch style home.
Question:	do you have to apply after every rainstorm ???? can get very expensive
Answer:	The lowest is 1 teaspoon and it goes up to 8 ounces.
Question:	Any way to revive the sprayer after it stops working
Answer:	When these work, they are awesome. Read the instructions for you chemical, determine how much concentrate to add per gallon of water. Fill the container with any amount of concentrate, set the dial. For example, if you are to add 3 oz. of concentrate per gallon, just put the concentrate into the container, set the dial to 3 oz. and spray. The sprayer will suck out the concentrate mixing it with the water at the concentration that you set on the dial, in this case, 3 oz. per gallon. Problem is, these are a little flimsy, So I suggest that you put water into the container the first time to make sure it works right, then play around with the different concentration levels. Set it to the highest concentration level and it will suck the container empty pretty quick, that way you'll be sure it's syphoning.
