Customer Reviews for Spectracide Ant Shield 1 gal. Ready-to-Use Insect Killer

So far, so good. The ants are gone for about 4 days now.

Worked quick and has kept them away will be doing another application in a week or two just in case

It worked but not fast acting

Chemical works well but the sprayer broke after a few uses.

Worked marginally well, still had ants but somewhat fewer

didnt work to long . maybe two days?

Did not really kill the ants

I have been using this product for years and it is effective in riding ants and roaches. I strongly recommend it.

Got this for a good sale price, the bottle size and the trigger spray work great, it just didn’t kill the ants on contact when I used it, it seemed like I had to spray more than I should have for it to have an effect on the ants when I used it.

The squirt handle broke on the second pull. The bottle then just started leaking all over my hand and the ground. Not sure the effectiveness of the product as I could not really apply it.

This ready to spray ant shield seems to work as advertised. We obtained it mainly to defend against the ants, not against other bugs. To get rid of the ants it seems to be better than the Bugs-be-gone.

I had thousands! They are gone!

Did not work. Have tried multiple times and areas of my property.

It took a few applications but cured my ant problem. I’m ready for anymore ants.

Used this and Amdro on the outside of the house for carpenter ants. Used this spray to spay exterior foundation of the house and exterior sill plates. Used the spray on the interior house to spray the interior sill plates in the cellar and areas where there was evidence of carpenter ant infestations. Works almost immediately. In a day or two: no more ants, except for dead ones. In 3 or 4 days, fewer and fewer dead ants and, curiously, mostly dead queens. Did not stain log walls of a log home and dries relatively quickly. Thus far, seems to have long-lasting, effective, residual results. I would seriously recommend using a mask or breathing protection and safety goggles when using this product. It doesn't stink but you don't want to breathe in this stuff.

Product definitely kills my ant issue. Just wear gloves and a mask. You can feel effects.
