Best for killing the Kissing Bug
By Eileen on 09/26/2013
I have been using this product both in AZ and Mex. it is the only product that reduced in one season crickets , scorpions, ticks,and cone nose bug (kissing bug). The last of which I have been bitten numerous times and am recovering from. I use it around foundation outside, along walls in house, in ALL cracks and where ever pipes exist under sinks about once every season...winter, spring, summer, fall. It was recommended at DIY store in Tucson and have not felt safe without it since.

stick with what works
By Mrpski on 10/04/2016
I started using Cy-Kick for a nasty scorpion problem after speaking with a profession pest control guy. Not only did it work great against those nasty critters but anything else that became problematic. I choose Cy-Kick mainly because after it dries in less than an hour it is safe around little kids and pets. I never had any issues either using the product or applying it around my home. Like most tools, how you use them is as important as the tool itself so follow the directions!

Amazing!
By Jen on 09/27/2010
I was recommended this product by a pest control company and was told that many companies in our area use this product. I had to try it! We have a problem with black widows but really have a problem with crickets. When I received the product I used it that evening. The fact that it is practically odorless and so little issued in with water left me wondering how the stuff even works. Later that night I noticed it was very quiet outside, usually our dog would be chasing crickets off the back patio when he went outside, tonight there were no crickets to chase. The next morning was absolute cricket carnage. There were dead crickets everywhere! Two weeks later I am still finding bodies and our house is quiet at night. I have not seen a new black widow and although apparently I am one if the few who has yet to see a scorpion in Arizona, hopefully now I never will. Thank you Cy-Kick! Anyone who hires a professional is throwing your money away. Do it yourself!

Works Amazing
By Patrick on 10/03/2023
After trying every product at my prior residence I used this and after a few years had a 5 acre lot manageable in the fall. I recently moved to a new residence and the lot is filled with no elder trees. I armed myself with this again and it knocking the box elder bugs out quickly. It is expensive but work extremely well.
Works fairly quickly.
By Travis on 05/23/2007
I am mainly trying to kill and get rid of scorpions. I have used this product in the past and killed them fairly quickly as well as other bugs around the house. With the Cy-Kick CS I did not hear crickets and saw a lot of dead roaches.

Very Disappointed
By Sandy on 04/09/2013
I used this product repeatedly for over a month with no results at all. I even increased the recommended dosage by an ounce, still no results. I will not buy this again, and would not recommend it. Would not have even given it one star, but that's the lowest rating this would accept.

No evidence that it worked
By Kevin on 09/20/2016
I've used anther product to kill Spyder and Scorpions. After spraying I have seen dead and mostly dead bugs. After spraying CY Kick CS, I noticed no dead bugs or sick bugs after the spraying. But we have found live bugs that appeared fine and unaffected. Until they were promptly smashed.

bottom line-this stuff works
By Mark on 12/19/2014
it's the only product I've used that keeps the scorpions under control here in Mesa Arizona. I very seldom see one any more and then they are almost always barely moving so I know they are being "drugged" by the cy-kick. no more scorpions inside the house.

Great cutomer service
By Joanne on 01/10/2012
I know this is a great product from the testimonials of friends who've used it, but I also have to add that the customer service is great. The postal service lost my order and they were prompt and considerate about shipping a replacement. Much appreciated!

Cy-Kick CS
By Sean on 11/19/2014
This stuff is off the hook! I have rental properties and one the houses was left with a roach infestation of the worst kind. I used a full ounce with a gallon of water as recommended and I go back every day to find hundreds dead everyday. Cy-Kick CS delivers!

BEST ON THE MARKET!!
By Gwen on 11/05/2017
Good for stink bug control
By Kathy on 10/01/2013
Terminex used this, but they were skimpy on quantity, not thorough enough, done on their schedule instead of mine, and often done when weather was not ideal, etc. Found out I could buy it online and spray it myself andI am much more thorough. Better stink bug control when u do it yourself. No brainer for me!

Reliable, never fails residual pesticide
By Anonymous on 09/01/2013
Another residual I used with Orkin, micro encapsulated to protect the active ingredient up to 90 days; and it has low to no odor (depending on strength) so it works inside and outside. I change this out every other spray with Talstar, hey are a great 1-2 punch

Knocks them Dead !
By Dave on 09/01/2010
We had a flea problem and after "bombing" the house 3 times and trying other products to relieve our misery. Finally found this site and ordered this... No problem any more. The fleas were dead within 1 hour. I have used this product on ants, wasps and spiders with the same knock down effect and the residual continues to kill after the application.

Effective Insecticide
By Mg on 04/18/2010
I have purchased Cy-Kick CS from a local speciality pest control store at almost double the price. It seems to be working much more effectively than the insecticides found at Lowes or Home Depot. I used it 2 oz per gallon for outside applications and 1 oz per gallon for inside applications.

Great Product
By Arne on 04/01/2015
We had a problem with scorpions inside the home and of all the products we tried, Cy-Kick is the only one that completely took care of the problem. We used it around the perimeter of the house, inside the garage, and inside the house and no more scorpions.

Works OK, just not for spiders
By Chris on 07/22/2014
I used this product to treat outside and inside my home, using the stronger concentrate mix (2oz/gal). It seems to have worked on ants and other insects, but does not seem to affect spiders at all. Even ones I sprayed directly with the mix were still alive after 24 hours. I have actually noticed more spiders in my house after treatment than before.

Carpenter bees
By Bt on 05/19/2016
Used this for carpenter bees on a wooden front porch. There were literally hundreds of them and daily piles of sawdust. I Basically have done three doses saturating the underside of my porch and railings. Each successive application resulted in fewer bees. After the third application all the bees are gone (dead). This is good insecticide.

Had my hopes dashed
By Anonymous on 06/25/2013
Doesn't work as good as some people reported, at least not for me. Scorpions are still roaming around and ants come back after a few days. And I have sprayed 4 times already and we haven't had any rain. I even used the 10% solution. What am I doing wrong?

Cy-Kick CS
By Bob on 06/02/2010
It works
By Salyersville on 10/26/2016
This is the same stuff that my PCO uses and I know that because they put the product name on the receipt when you hire them to spray for you so I started trying to find it and it works great you have to repeat every 30 days to have the best results but I've tried all that they sell here this is the best
So Far, So good.
By Leftydog on 07/22/2014
Finished a basement and had spider and centipede problem driving the occupant crazy. Mixed this with Exciter to get immediate kill and residual kill. Also running 2 dehumidifiers to remove humidity in basement. The combination seems to have done the trick. Any new pests show up dead. Also, the combination did not leave a residue once dried. Used on painted walls, trim, carpeting and vinyl tile floors.

Kills Roaches!
By Robin on 05/01/2014
I have not purchased Cy-Kick from this website, but I plan to. One of the best professional pest control companies in the hot, humid city where I live which also has many lakes and dense foliage and trees used this product both in my home and as a barrier spray to prevent roaches of all types. That speaks volumes, and yes, it works! Oh, I also paid them more than twice the cost of the pictured container for one visit.

Awesome product - Kills scorpions
By Brett on 09/26/2010
I bought this product for one reason:scorpions. I did quite a bit of research on-line but couldn't really find any good remedy until I stumbled upon Cy-kick. Our professional pest control company was using this. This is a great product because it not only will kill scorpions, it also kills their food source. And it is safe to use indoors. The only downside is that it is not fast acting. My wife found a scorpion in our kitchen in the evening, went to find something to kill it, and it disappeared. The next day I found it midday near our refrigerator motionless. When I nudged it, it moved it's legs very slowly. I stuck it on a piece of tape, and a few hours later, it was dead. It kills smaller pests, like ants, within 5 minutes after contact. I would highly recommend this product to anyone with a scorpion infestation.

Kills AZ Bark Scorpions And Everything Else
By Nick on 03/04/2013
Thanks for the great price and free fast shipping. After using at full strength (2oz per gal) I actually found dead scorpions besides block wall in back yard. This never happened with old pest control company. Be sure to spray in between pylasters of block walls. This is where they like to hide. Also make barriers that anything has to cross over to access your property. I mixed a 32oz spray bottle with 1/2oz of CY-Kick CS for when I go hunt at night. When I spot a scorpion with my 28 bulb black light, I use the stream spray to get it directly. After sprayed they will usually crawl back into cracks of block wall. Come back a few minutes later and you will find them dying on the ground nearby. Then I crush it with my needle nose pliers. If you find they do not come out you can get a coat hanger to retrieve them.

Scorpions' worst nightmare
By William on 10/18/2017
Been in Nevada 35 years, but on a golf course with a rocky hill for 15. Scorpions a big issue, inside and out. I use a black light and an aerosol killer on summer nights, never fail to get one, usually more. I've had three pest control services during this period, all saying "we will solve your scorpion problem." So finally phoned DoMyOwn, they recommended Cy-Kick, don't know if you know this, bark scorpions play dead, but now, the ARE dead. I've never found dead scorpions in the house and garage and since the first application - - three, and no sightings of live ones. Long way to go to get 'em all no doubt, but I think I've got the answer.

Works for scorpions
By Casey on 09/13/2010
So far, so good. We had a huge scorpion problem, I killed 6 in one night in our house and about 20 in the past month. I used Cy-Kick and the next day found 4 dead or dying scorpions in plain sight. It's been about 3 weeks now and we've only seen 2 alive in the house. I have yet to treat the inside since we have small pets and a crawling baby. I would highly recommend.

Pretty Good
By Theshark on 08/22/2011
This is used once a month to keep spiders, bugs and scorpions out of my hose. Up to know it has worked really good. Towards the end of the month I personally believe it weakens and you have to respray but that's just me. I have also noticed that some spiders die on contact while others do not. Overall I believe this is a great product for keeping spiders, scorpions and other bugs out.
