Black Flag Flea and Tick Killer Concentrate Yard Treatment 32 Ounces, Ready To Spray, QuickFlip Hose End

I know there are mixed reviews but I decided to try it since the company has other products that work for me. I followed the instructions and everything worked well and helped my problem area get back to normal

I had a really bad back yard flea infestation summer 2018. I had a dog and 2 cats and was fighting the "worst ever" indoor flea infestation: the usual treatment of borax didn't work, so I mixed borax with diatomaceous earth and salt... and spread it liberally -- no luck. I hate poisons, but I bombed my foster cat's room TWICE, with no improvement. My senior dog was on Nexgard, but it wasn't working (fleas must take a blood meal from the animal to be killed). I started noticing that within minutes of putting my poor dog down in the yard, he would be covered in 10 or so VISIBLE fleas -- which means more were buried in his coat. I new the yard had to be the key to the problem. I had read up on the active ingredients and I THINK that people who are claiming that it didn't work PERHAPS did not use it correctly. From my reading the fine print, I'd learned that DIRECT SUNLIGHT DESTROYS THE ACTIVE INGREDIENT. So, I waited until the sun was no longer shining on my back yard, then working from the outer perimeter slightlyy overlapping the sprayed area as I worked my way backward to my patio (and left a narrow path to the outdoor spigot so I could turn it off). The next day, as soon as the grass was dry, I did "the white sock walk" into the middle of the yard... not a single flea.

This product works really well for treating fleas and ticks. I have found that you do not use this in your yard when the sun is beating down on your lawn. The sunlight destroys the chemicals in the spray and you need to ground zero of your infestation. Treating an area that is not ground zero will lead to you being unsatisfied with this product.

I am satisfied with the results of this product..... though, I have found that you have to use the product a little more often than was indicated to maintain good results.

Does not work bought 2 bottles of this to treat a 10x10 outside dog kennel used the first bottle with no luck so I spray the second bottle and got the same results this stuff definitely does not work doesnt repel let alone kill fleas
