In regard to the smell..
A lot of people complain about the smell, but I didn’t mind it. It smells like heavy, mint, or eucalyptus. I would rather smell this then raid or any of those other poisonous options.The product definitely did the job of getting rid of roaches and termites.I recommend 👍🏼
Mopping mess
My friend bought this to kill the palmetto bugs in NC. (I just hit them with a shoe.🤷🏼♀️) Any way, I knew I wouldn't use it so I gave it back to them. Later when I was mopping there were these spots that foamed up like a highly concentrated dish washing soap. I couldn't figure out what was going on b/c I had already been mopping for 5 minutes. Then this spray came to mind. All the places where it had been used, it was still there and foams up when it gets wet again. The spray did kill the palmetto bugs (they're pretty easy to kill) but this is annoying. I've mopped 3 times already and it is still happening. I have no idea how long it will take before this stuff is completely gone. I use a Zevo plug-in and I am happy with the results but I will not buy the spray.
Wouldn’t buy it again.
First of all Amazon can’t seem to find my purchase anywhere in my order history, weird.This stuff does work but at a cost. The smell is over powering. For whatever reason this year my house has been continuously assaulted by ants.First was in my daughter’s room which was odd, but it was the first time I used this spray. It sprays overly heavy/thick regardless of attempts to only try for a fine mist. The excess spray results in runs and puddles. The smell lasted for days until I decided to clean away the sprayed area. It was too much.The second use was in the corner of the dining room where ants saw fit to completely take over my dogs feed bowl. We cleaned the area and reluctantly used this spray again knowing full well the smell would linger. Well given that I used it in a more widespread area and in full open air to the rest of the house the smell became almost unbearable.My eyes are burning and I can feel it in my throat. Not trying to be a baby about it but this stuff will easily overwhelm a living space if you use too much or I don’t know, having ceiling fans or central air to distribute it over a larger area.It does kill ants though and they haven’t been coming back where we’ve sprayed, so there’s that. I’ll be looking for other products moving forward.

Very effective, but spray can malfunctions
I used Zevo to get rid of fruit flies in my barn and in my kitchen. It was very effective, killing and preventing further problems. It has a lingering odor but not offensive. The biggest problem that I had was the spray can malfunctioned with probably half of the contents still left. I have found that Zevo now has a spray bottle, and this should be a better choice to get full use of the product.

Great for renters and in-between regular maintenance
Live in an apartment complex with pets, we are pretty clean people aside from some dishes in the sink at times and I notice within short periods of time we will have some appearances of roaches. I haven’t lived in an apartment (especially ground level) that hadn’t had this happen occasionally, it’s not a big deal. Our family works odd hours and we don’t like being disturbed during the day without warning. With Zevo the unscheduled pest maintenance visits can be skipped and we are able to maintain it ourselves pretty effectively and safely. It does leave an oily residue afterwards but usually after a few hours if you go over it with a dry mopping cloth you can barely tell. I try to let it be like that at least a couple of days just to ensure it’s effectiveness, but a light mopping or wipe down will take care of that no problem. Haven’t experienced excessive buildup because of it. If that’s the only inconvenience I may experience from an overall family friendly product I’m quite pleased and will be buying again! Going on 2 years now. Thanks Zevo
