Great and fast shipping but..
By Heather on 02/16/2017
Shipping was great and really fast! And easy mixing but I sprayed a group of bed bugs and then put them on a paper towel after about 2 mins they was what appeared to be dead.. I put them in a zip lock bag and After about 40 mins through they was all up and going again. I thought maybe it will still kill them. Well about 2 hours later I rechecked n they are still up and going.
Expert response:
Thank you for your feedback! It can take several hours to target insects to die from contact with insecticides, depending on the health of the insect and how much active ingredient they pick up from the application. There is, however, often a change of resistance to certain active ingredients, which is why we always recommend to use multiple products and formulations when treating bed bugs. You may want to take a few moments to review our Bed Bug Treatment Guide for more tips and information:

Still Have Bug Problems
By Robert on 08/14/2016
FenvaStar EcoCap is easy to mix, the measure bottle is great, and the product has almost zero odor. It dries fast and doesn't stain walls or peel paint. But I still have Springtail bugs crawling on my ceiling which fall down onto my bed. Not good! I've also seen other insects around the house after applying this product. So, I cannot rate the effectiveness of this product well.

EcoCap. Give it time !
By Ashley on 01/26/2021
So what some people don't seem to understand is that this product has a VERY long residual. 3 months . However you can spray it every 7-14 days. I would recommend spraying every 14 days and make your initial application 2 oz per gallon. This will do a good clean out and let the product do its work. However this kills the bed bugs slowly . You might spray one and it may seem to keep living but it will die. I sprayed this everywhere and will continue to every two weeks (however second application will only be 1 oz per gallon) . There is no odor per se, but the vapors will get you so leave the room and allow to dry . Open a window to make it faster . You can't spray this all over your mattress but anywhere your skin doesn't touch will be fine . It also doesn't harm plants . In summation , use this product twice a month for about 2-3 months and then use cimexa as well as a product you can spray directly on surfaces your skin will touch ...like sterifab.

Not for Bedbugs
By Cindy on 02/15/2016
Sprayed with the higher concentration recommended for bedbugs. It kept them away for 2 days. Then they returned with a vengeance, both adult and nymph.
Expert response:
It is very important to note that bedbug treatments typically take several applications over several weeks. It is recommended that you use more than one product to overcome the chance of the bedbugs developing resistance to the product you are using. Please take a few moments to read over our Bedbug Guide. This guide contains step by step instructions, how to videos, hot spot maps, and product recommendations to make sure you are performing the most effective bedbug treatment program:

FenvaStar EcoCap
By Elizabeth on 02/28/2016
Effective on some pest.
By Darrel on 08/09/2016
I've only tested this produce on ants and bed bugs. Ants die within 30 seconds of being sprayed. I've noticed that bed bugs get sprayed and keep walking with what appears to be no affect. I was told it kills over time. I've notice a very small decrease in the bed bugs activity but it's hard to determine what could be the cause of that as other actions were taken.

Still hopeful
By Denise on 09/19/2014
I live in a duplex and my neighbor is a slob! I NEVER in my life have had bugs of any kind but now have roaches. I takes my husband into getting this after we used up our Demon Max. We sprayed yesterday and today I was cooking breakfast and sat a plate on the counter next to the stove and within LITERALLY 5 seconds a roach ran to the plate. Came right out from where we sprayed and crossed over where we sprayed. The thing acted as if we only sprayed water and it had died. I am still hopeful as we also bought Maxforce stations, Maxforce gel & Gentrol. I will do a repeat application at a week and hope and pray for the best. I cannot handle these dang bugs around my small children. I wash dishes within minutes of finishing any food, constantly sweep, vacuum and mop. Our poor cat goes all night without food or water. This might drive me to moving and leaving everything behind!!! P.s. We did spray (Phantom) in the neighbors house and use gel and bait stations and gentrol there too. We also explained to him he has to clean his home regularly and thoroughly. If he understood it will be ok but as he only speaks minimal English I am not sure how much got through.

Fenvastar
By Joe on 06/21/2016
I tried many of the Big Box insect control products(Ortho etc) with very poor results on Black Carpenter ants I then used Fenvastar. This product did the job. I was thinking of getting a professional exterminator. After applying the Fenvastar I did not have to. I would highly recommend it.

FenvaStar EcoCap for bedbugs
By Dmo on 07/13/2018
It worked, until it didn't. Had been spraying weekly to get rid of bedbugs. After 3 months the infestation is now worse than when I started treating the house. Using this in conjunction with the other items in the kit. Could almost have paid a professional with what I have spent on chemicals by now. I didn't want the inconvenience of moving out of the house while strangers messed with everything. I should have

Expert response:
Don't be discouraged! Millipedes can be a bit tough to control because they move into areas with favorable conditions quickly. Please take a few moments to read our Millipede Treatment Article to learn the non-chemical part of the program:

powerful chemical
By Tiffany on 12/20/2016
It worked. Read all the directions. I had to give some away to use it in time after diluting it. What I'll do in three months is make a gallon or two and use it indoors and outdoors and not try to shelf the diluted formula. I still got immediate results and the smell was light.

AN EXTRAORDINARY BUG SPRAY
By Betty on 09/02/2016
WENT ON LINE TO SHOP FOR A SPRAY TO CONTROL CRICKETS AND OTHER PESTS. I READ THE INFORMATION ON FENVASTAR ECOCAP AND THOUGHT I WOULD GIVE IT A TRY. WELL, I AM GLAD I DID. I GOT RID OF A LOT OF BUGS. THE FENVASTAR IS POWERFUL AND I HAVE TO ORDER MORE IN A FEW DAYS. BECAUSE WE HAVE A LARGE AREA TO COVER.I SPRAY IN THE EVENING, NEVADA IS VERY HOT DURING THE DAY.

Has an odor
By Fitzdman on 06/02/2020
Great pest control
By Eric on 11/06/2020
I wasn't sure about this product when I ordered it. Only because I had not heard about it but let me tell you how effective it is. This product wiped out any and all pests I had. Even some I didn't even know I had. It's been several weeks since I last used it but still seeing dead creatures. I had a real bad flea infestation but one application wiped them out. One of the reasons I ordered this was it stated odorless which it is but when spraying please use a mask because the vapor is very strong. That goes away once it dries.

Awesome Product
By Fawn on 01/06/2020
Once I got the sprayer I used this and OMG this is the best. I wish I had gotten this long ago. I sprayed the cabinets and along the baseboards and floor boards and the ones i have seen are sick and dying. Little by little they are disappearing. I love this site.

Worked for only a couple weeks per repeated application
By Henry on 07/17/2019
I like that it is more environmentally friendly. I apply it until the floor is wet with the product. Still it seems to work only for a couple weeks then have to reapply. Maybe this "encapsulation" concept doesn't work. It's been humid here since using the product as it's rained almost every day. Maybe that affects the encapsulation. If this is known, then maybe it should be in the description. Wish they had the same product with the eco friendly veg oil, but NO encapsulation.
