I thought that since it is supposed to be safe around people that it wouldn't smell bad. It has a strong odor like Raid. It is oily and does not dry. You'll have to mop it up. It only killed the ants that I sprayed it on. The next morning, not only did I have a smelly, oily mess, but there were more ants walking around the poison.

We're so sorry this can of STEM Ants, Roaches & Spiders missed the mark. These products tend to be oily and more fragrant because they are made with essential oils. Due to this, we don't recommend using them on floors. The fragrance typically disappears within a few hours, but if sprayed heavily, it may last longer. Make sure to ventilate the space and wash any surfaces with warm, soapy water to quickly get rid of the smell and any oily residue. We value you and your honest feedback, and we would like the opportunity to make this right. Call us weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT at 877-869-7546. Share this reference number, 22608968, so we can help. We hope to hear from you soon! – Mindi, STEM Consumer Care

Used to kill ant infestation we have at home! I will say it’s better at killing them than deterring them. It does leave an oily film so keep that in mind when using. I know a lot of people are complaining about the smell, but honestly I’ve used a lot of other natural bug killer and this one is not as strong. Is it the most pleasant smelling? No but it will go away in a few hours.
Disgusting odor not worthit even if pet safe

Ok, it kills ants on contact but it has the most god awful odor that just lingers in the air. Will try to return and if I can’t, this will be an outside only spray.

We're very sorry to hear about your experience with our STEM Ant, Roach, & Spider and thank you for leaving your review.

Safe for kids and pets? This isn't safe for any breathing creature! My throat burns, my lungs hurt! I stood at the door and sprayed a tiny 5th wheel bathroom, and we instantly had to run out of the house without finishing! This stuff certainly FEELS toxic to my throat and lungs!

I had an ant infestation in my dining room and this product took care of it in one application! Subtracted one star because it does leave an oily film that can be slippery. Still, I'm really pleased that I was able to take care of the ant problem with no chemicals.

The smell is sooo toxic, an unbearable, the worst of all the insecticide I’ve purchased.

Thanks for taking the time to reach out. Because STEM Ants, Roaches & Spiders is made up of essential oils, this spray has a stronger aroma. After use, the fragrance typically fades away within a few hours; if sprayed heavily it may last longer. To quickly eliminate the scent be sure to ventilate the area and clean surfaces with warm, soapy water.

This product that it is pet safe because I used it around a dog and he had no issues. THE ROACH THO! SPRAYED a 1/3 of the can on top of it and it was still able to run under my bed. WASTE OF MONEY

We're so sorry to hear STEM® Ant, Roach & Spider didn't perform as we'd expect it to! As long as you are spraying the roaches directly, it should kill them instantly. I have passed this feedback along to my team, and we would appreciate the chance to help.

Yall!!! If you are at WAR with the German roaches like I am… this product is indeed for you. I have NEVER seen them die on demand like I did with 1 squirt of this stuff. I picked up around 6 cans just to have around. (Bug problem in the car) Spray it everywhere. Inside your headliner. Inside your trunk. EVERYWHERE!! It’ll do the job.

It takes a long time for the bug to be killed with this. I have a wood floor and it took me a while to clean up the greasy mess it made on my floor. I definitely do not recommend this.

We're so sorry to hear the STEM® Ants, Roaches, & Spiders Spray didn't perform as we'd expect it to! Typically, this product is very effective when spraying flies directly, and any oily residue that remains should come clean with soap and water.

Thank you for reaching out. We're sorry to hear about your experience with our STEM Ants, Roaches & Flies. As this is made with essential oils, it tends to leave a stronger fragrance. We recommend opening windows and doors to ventilate smell until it has dissipated. Additionally, this is a contact killer only and once the product dries, it no longer has any killing effect.

Its summertime out here in Arizona and ants are attacking in swarms like Wu tang killer bees. I've made homemade remedies that have worked in the past but the ants have evolved. STEM is a wonderful product
This is the most incredible product.

I started having a cockroach problem after I bought a used floor shampooer. I tried, Bug Md. And other spray products. I have dogs, cats and parrots so I researched a product that would not be harmful to them. I decided to try Stem, and I'm ever so glad I did. This stuff is amazing. The odor is tolerable, my problem is disappearing, and the best thing is that it's safe around my pets. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone with the same issues. Thank you, Stem.

Bought this to treat some ants I have been seeing in a half bath and back entry way. Sprayed away about 18 inches, and ripped off the access. Leaves a very slick oily residue on the surface. After about an hour of cleaning it up, my paint on the base boards is starting to peel.

I saw a spider and could not kill it before it disappeared. I immediately started dusting , sweeping, mopping open windows for ventilation then went to go buy a spider bug spray. I got the crevices , under my bed, behind dressers. I'm hoping the spider crawled out because I still have not found it but feel safe to go to bed and not get bitten.
