Did anyone have issues with actually having the praying the chemical? I tried squeezing the bottle to try and help create a vacuum, I've pumped the spray part for 15 mins and still nothing. I even called the 1800 number on the back and they said the chemical can become too thick and to warm it up in warm water.
This is a waste of time and money

Look at insecticide concetrates at Bunnings. Follow the safe handling instructions, put in a pressurised 4 litre container. Avoid Mortein professonal.

I would say if you dilute the solution, it would dilute and weaken the chemicals which would make the solution either less effective or useless.

Lim S.

I would stick to the instruction stated : " Do not dilute ". The liquid that squirts out is thick so as to be effective for its purpose. Upon dilution, its concentration will be reduced and effectiveness will be lost.

Get Mortein to sort it out. It is their product.

I pull the hose out of the trigger end, then fill the hose with water to prime the hose. Then push it back into the trigger. It also helps to check that the spray nozzle is open.

I unscrewed the nozzle almost until it came off. It took some pumping as it is thick. If it is as effective as mine was, you are wasting your time.

The spray has left a sticky lumpy inconsistent residue all over my window frames and everywhere else I sprayed it. Does this dry by itself? I’m concerned a dog or cat might try and lick it? Should I wipe it off?

Is this safe to use around Pets? I have an female indoor cat and a male outdoor cat I'm a little hesitant to use this product but the cockroaches around our house are so big in size and number and they have wings they freak me out! My indoor cat is a very good hunter and loves to torment them and leaves the dead carcass of these pests everywhere so I'm worried this might affect her.

Lots of poison. No seriously you'll have to ask mortein that question or it might indicate that on the package

The active ingredient is 'Deltamethrin'.

Save yourself the hassle and use your own sprayer. Better still, take it back and get a refund.

Oh Yeah

I got the pump to work by shortening the hose so the pump sits just above the top of the container. Took me a while to work it out but it works good now.
