Ultracide: probably works, but poor packaging

I had a flea problem with my dog, and this was recommended to me as what professionals use anyways if you hire an exterminator. I bought two cans (good prompt service with free shipping! no problem there) and applied it on a Sunday morning. It involves vacuuming your entire house, removing all pets for 4-6 hours, then spraying. It was easy enough to spray BUT, the sprayer only works in a "down pattern". It seems to diffuse the product so much you can not direct it very well. Also, the can states it covers something like 3000 square feet, which would be doing my whole house once, then half again. In fact, one can BARELY did my basement alone (800 square feet) and ran out totally. The other can was only enough to do PORTIONS of the rest of the house. It has little odor, and disappeared completely by the time we returned 6 hours later. Seems to have worked so far. However, to re-treat the house would actually take 3-4 cans, making it kinda expensive.

PT Ultracide

Mediocre
By Lois on 09/03/2016
Based on other reviews, I expected more from this product. For something advertised to cover over 2600sf, I only wanted to fumigate 180sf. I went through almost 2 cans, and there are STILL fleas in my kennel. I'm going to try Diatomaceous Earth next. Wish me luck. Disappointed.
Expert response:
Please note that if you used 2 cans of Ultracide in a 180 sq ft area, you are over using and wasting your product. Flea control can take 4-6 weeks because of the life cycle of the fleas. Treatments should be done every 14 days until the fleas are no longer present. Please take a few minutes to read our flea control guide so you can better understand how to implement a successful flea control program: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-fleas-a-483.html Please let us know if you have any questions.

Flea infestation
By Debrah on 03/13/2023
I must admit I was disappointed in this product. I bought two cans. My house is 1700 sq ft and it took every bit of 2 full cans. In less than a week fleas were full force, I thought ok, infestation, bought 2 more cans, same thing. I spent 160.00 on four cans with hardly any result. I bought regular flea bombs and have a much better result. I think this product would have worked better if it was in individual cans ????
Works (kind of…)

I purchased because of the reviews I read. I had been having a problem with fleas for a few weeks and tried the typical dog treatments on my pets and used all the insect treatments from granules to commercial sprays around the outside and inside the house with no luck on getting rid of those terrible pests!!! So I saw this product and figured that using this along with the rest of the treatments I had used that it would help eliminate and keep them away for at least 7 months as the product specifies. Yet the fleas are still around. I will say that I do see less of them but I have given it plenty of time to remove them all and I am still having issues with fleas. Has not kept them away as promised. Like I said, I think there are less of them, but one is one too many. Especially when I am getting bit and my wife and son have been bit as well.
