    Dependable

    By Wayne on 09/19/2007

    I have always bought top quality products and the B&G 1 Gallon Sprayer conforms. When using expensive pesticides, it is important to be able to efficiently and safely apply the product. The sprayer has an adjustable head that allows pinpoint accuracy. All the professionals use this product for one reason, dependability. I highly recommend this product to anyone doing their own pest control.

    B&G = quality

    By Josh on 10/28/2010

    Continual usage for 10-12 hours of working a day 6 days a week and only $7 worth of parts needed because of my own abuse (grabbing it from my truck by the hose). This product vs. your 30$ or 60$ sprayers from Home Depot or Ace Hardware can't compare. Quality of spray: Most plastic sprayers I've used have issues with leakage. Either while you walk the arm sway causes leaking, or after you have finished spraying a drop or 2 of drippage which doesn't seem like a lot but when you are spraying a fine mist on an area with wood for example and a drop or two is left it CAN cause damage, but the fine mist dries quick enough that it doesn't. The amount of pressure and how easy it is to generate with these sprayers is amazing in comparison to many counterparts. I know I can get a good 20 or 25 feet with the fine jet stream and have it do it consistently. Last but not least obvious durability - its made of all metal the thing doesn't really bat an eye if you mistakenly drop it, or kick it by accident, bump it into things, etc. Down side to this is if you're not careful it can take other things out.

    No Instruction Manual !

    By Parrhesia on 03/24/2015

    You would think that, when you pay $250 for something, it would come with a Manual which covers BASIC information such as 1. Set Up, 2. Operation, and 3. Use. Wrong! It comes in plain, white box, with a photocopied sheet containing minimal information on 1, 2 & 3 above - mostly troubleshooting, repair, and exploded parts diagrams. Very disappointing. Even DMOPC's videos do not cover this most basic information.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    The manual included with the sprayer is standard from B&G. You can view this information on our website anytime here: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/msds/PrimeLineSprayers.pdf.

    The best, just pay the money and buy it.

    By Big on 03/23/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I tried less expensive sprayers and was totally disappointed. I talked with a professional who explained to me the difference. The B&G is not only made like a M1 Tank it features a NO DRIP end. The quality of the case is top notch, made like something from the 1940s. The real thing that makes this sprayer is the fact that it does NOT drip. All the other ones are terrible. I spray and a stream comes out and the nozzle drips all over the floors and walls. It gets everywhere even on me. When you're using chemicals that is NOT a good thing. So far when I used this, once the spray comes out the nozzle closes off and there is no drip. This is a professional sprayer and worth every penny. I expect to have it for years and years. You only need to change the seals. It also has re-sale value. You can sell this and get a nice amount back for it. Don't waste your money on a cheaper sprayer you will be sorry, it's dangerous to get those chemicals on you. It's a safety issue too. B&G = the best.

    Great Value for serious users

    By John on 01/26/2015

    This is not my first B&G sprayer, I purchased one 18-20 years ago and have gotten much use of it. It was loaned to someone who left product in it for an extended time and ruined it. So, I've purchased this new Ni24-S-18 unit and I love it. It has a good reach and sprays an even coverage. it is easy to clean and maintain. I plan to use it the rest of my life. Please don't ask to borrow it!

    Simply the Best

    By Joel on 09/13/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I am not a pest control professional, but I am someone who enjoys using quality tools. The B&G 1 Gallon Sprayer is such a tool and represents the best in material utilization and craftsmanship. Best on my experience, this sprayer provides a very controlled delivery of pesticide or herbicide. The standard spray tip affords for basically two spray patterns, albeit there are four orifices for applying a product that is compatible with the stainless and brass components. Two orifices will deliver a fine and course stream, while the other two deliver a fine and course fan-like pattern. Do not confuse the latter with a cone-like spray pattern. To adjust the spray pattern, simply loosen the knurled lock nut surrounding the spray tip and rotate to the pattern desired. Whereas this sprayer is applicable for both indoor and outdoor use, it excels at applying pesticides indoors due to the fine stream and fan-like spray patterns. As 99% of all pest control problems originate from the outside of a home, a more economical sprayer alternative may be prudent. Another feature that may prove useful is a knurled locking bolt located behind the trigger mechanism that can be tightened to prevent the trigger from operating, thereby preventing an accidental discharge of fluid product while spraying in a home or transporting the sprayer. In summary, this is an outstanding sprayer for the professional, tool enthusiast, or someone who demands the best. If you have deep pockets or your budget permits, then buy the best if your conscience permits. Otherwise, most any economically priced sprayer will still solve your pest control problems.

    B&G 1-Gallon Sprayer

    By Pdh on 06/23/2011

    Verified Purchase

    Very high quality product. My only complaint is with my choice of wands. I am 6-feet tall and I find myself having to stoop a lot to get the wand tip where I want it. If I had it to do over again I would go with the 24-inch wand rather than the 18-inch wand. Do your own pest control, you can do a much better job at a much lower cost than the pros.  I highly recommend DoMyOwnPestControl.com. They have an excellent website that is easy to navigate and their customer service is second to none.

    B&G 1 Gallon Sprayer

    By Ken on 03/07/2015

    Verified Purchase

    This product is in a class of its own. Every component is just pure quality, and it performs exceedingly well. I have used it five times in the two weeks since receiving it, with absolutely no problems. I have been impressed at how long it stays pressurized with only a dozen pumps. It should be a piece of equipment that outlasts me. Well worth the price. In fact, it pays for itself since I can now buy concentrates and mix them myself instead of buying pre-mixes that have those horrible attached battery operated sprayers.

    Best Price Online

    By Wayne on 01/23/2017

    I searched all over the Internet to find the best price on a B&G sprayer and this is the best price by at least $20 bucks and the others that were cheaper or close to this price didn't come with a spray tip. The B&G Sprayer is the best Sprayer on the market and this is the place to get one.

    best you can buy

    By Adam on 09/20/2014

    I have used the same b&g sprayer for 12 years now and i do pest control for a living i service 20 to 25 homes a day it is worth every penny you spend i do recommend. The longer wand. My dad who has been in the business for 30 years has also used his same can the only down side the tips do clog up from time to time so make sure. You give it a good cleaning from time to time also try to your best to replace the cable inside the wand every couple of years but hands down you will not find a better hand sprayer

    Excellent sprayer

    By Glenn on 11/03/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I bought this sprayer primarily for personal use after having owned one of the plastic sprayers from Home Depot for many years. While that plastic sprayer has served me well, this B&G is clearly superior. The spray fan and wand are better, the choice of 4 types of spray is nice (2 fan, regular and fine, 2 levels of streams), no drip wand. The plastic sprayer will get your pesticide delivered and if budget is a concern, you may want to stay with that option. If money isn't an issue and you are willing to pay for quality which I believe will last for many years, go for this one...you will not be disappointed. As for me, I plan on beginning a regular spray maintenance routine, so not having to pay labor cost for a task I can do myself saves the money required to purchase this level of quality. As a bonus, this purchase from domyownpestcontrol was my first, and certainly won't be my last. The quality of the shipping materials and the quick shipping time, plus how useful and intuitive the website is has turned me into a loyal customer.

    Dont waist your time and money, get the best

    By Anonymous on 09/04/2013

    The bitterness of poor quality and poor service remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten. I bought another brand of "industrial" sprayer, pure junk leaked and dripped all over house and stream was way to large. Spoke to DoMyOwnPestControl on phone and they suggested the B&G and refunded me for the other product. I couldnt be happier, truly makes spraying poison at my house easy. A must have if you are handling your own pest control, this is what the pros use.

    The Best There Is

    By The on 12/01/2016

    Have been in pest control since 1992 and have used the same B&G since then. Do not leave it out in cold weather with fluid in it or the brass wand will split.

    B&G 1 gal sprayer

    By Ralph on 10/13/2012

    Verified Purchase

    Excellent sprayer, the head has 4 patterns that work flawlessly, it's also light weight, simple and handles very well. It uses way less chemical than those cheap sprayers, I literally use 1/2 the chemical now. B&G is the only way to go, definitely a life time investment! Furthermore, all the parts are replaceable and well built, built to last! This is a very robust sprayer!! DoMyOwnPestControl price matched and shipped the sprayer well packed and quickly, Thanks to you all!

    Expensive but worth it

    By Dan on 09/18/2014

    Verified Purchase

    The sprayer is most expensive but also the most well made I have ever owned. Does an exceptional job indoors with its drip less spray wand. Useful spray patterns make quick work of product application. If you are the type of person (like me) who would rather purchase a tool once have it last a lifetime than this is it.

    Those feels, bro.

    By Jeff on 04/30/2014

    Verified Purchase

    That moment, when you place a professional-grade tool in your hand and realize you've been using junk your whole life: that is this sprayer in a nutshell. Upon unboxing it and pulling out the spray wand, you can tell how well it's built. The spray patterns are precise. I had some reservations about getting the 18" v. the 24" wand, but it's a good length for reaching high and in close quarters (I'm 6' tall). As others have said, this is worth every penny I paid for it. I was paying $90 a quarter for a service, and having to call them back for repeat sprayings outdoors. Now it's me, this sprayer, and 96oz of Talstar P versus all the little critters. This site also had the best prices on everything I ordered. I'll definitely be doing business again.

    Works Great

    By Eric on 09/30/2014

    I wasted 65 bucks on a cheaper sprayer and was very disappointed. I bought this one and was very pleased. If you go cheap you get cheap. The sprayer doesn't leak or drip and sprays a very light mist which doesn't cause runs on interior walls.

    B&G 1 Gallon Sprayer + 18-inch wand

    By Randel on 11/05/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I think most people want tools that perform with excellence, built to last and are able to replace a part if needed. It is a professional tool. This sprayer will not disappoint if you will clean it after use and get familiar with some occasional maintainance through time. Call your dealer if you have questions about the sprayer or certain applications. None of us know everything.This is my recommendation for those who want American made quality even if its for home use as is mine. The service and delivery was great as well with DoMyOwnPestControl.com. Randel

    First impression, top notch

    By Daniel on 04/10/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I have only used this sprayer once, but so far I am completely satisfied. Out of the box the sprayer appeared solid and well made. I have been told that I am particular, but I would rather pay a premium for a solid product than waste my money on defective junk. I purchased the product for home use, and 1 gallon is just right for handling the exterior perimeter of my house and garage. The 1 gallon sprayer was easy to pump and carry, gave an even spray, and did not leak. I would recommend this product to those for whom quality is a more important factor than price.

    Seems a bit expensive for a sprayer with plastic cover and base, which will eventually get brittle and break! Otherwise, a good commercial grade sprayer!
