    Works and Keeps working, worth your money

    By David on 04/11/2010

    Worth every penny. I bought this after having a massive infestation from my next door neighbor in the building where I used to live. I tried all the stuff in local supermarkets like Raid and other brands that were like spraying bad air fresheners on the roaches. I called an exterminator, this is what he used, and IT WORKS WONDERS. About a year later I moved to a different building and had a roach problem again, and this time I ordered this 565 Plus, and now three years later I moved into a home, first thing before unpacking I sprayed some in the closets, kitchen, bathroom and laundry room. My bottle is finished and I am ordering another one. By the way it works on ants and flying big roaches as well, in my opinion this is the best pest spray I have ever used. Buy it and tell all of your friends about it!

    Good stuff

    No smell, yes the vapors linger, not good for the pets in the house, but the bugs don't like it indoors or outdoors.

    565 Plus XLO

    By Chrissy on 03/31/2011

    Verified Purchase

    I bought this to use in my apartment for roaches. It works great. The only downfall is that I have to spray it around my house about every 4 days because they keep coming back.

    Does the job

    By Lara on 12/25/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I get something that they are calling 'rat mites' at least twice a year. Probably because we live in the woods and the cats bring in huge tree rats for dinner sometimes. So about once or twice a year one of my kids will wake up with bites all over them. Nasty red welts, from head to toe. I pull out the 565 Plus XLO and spray the rooms thoroughly and the mattresses. No more bites for at least 6 months, until the cats bring more in! It is wonderful.

    professional strength

    By Jay on 10/07/2013

    I operated a pest control business in Texas for a number of years and always relied on this product. It's great for flushing voids where critters like to harbor and has that great "knock down" that we enjoy. It irritates the bejeebers out of roaches, and, if you're not careful, your pets and spouse....so READ THE LABEL!! If a little is good, a LOT ISN'T so use sparingly and you'll achieve great results.

    Product did very well. After using many retail bg sprays, they just seemed to get bigger and badder. This product showed them "Who"s Boss".

    Worked on Yellow Jackets

    By Bob on 10/23/2010

    I used the long sprayer tube, and stuck it down into the yellow jacket hole (at night). I tried to spray in any and all directions inside their nest. The next morning, and for 2 weeks after that I kept finding more dead yellow jackets. Now they are all gone. This did NOT knock yellow jackets out of the air. RAID works better for that. But RAID will not kill a nest. I sprayed 2 full cans of raid in their nest, and it only killed the Yellow Jackets it made direct contact with. When I sprayed this stuff in their nest, you could tell it got their attention. Good stuff, a little dab will do ya. But its a bit slow.

    worked in outdoor shrubby area

    By John on 09/29/2010

    Verified Purchase

    I used this for mosquitos which seemed to be thickest in a small area heavy with grape vines and raspberry canes in September. These were Asian Tiger mosquitos - fierce. The product definitely knocked down the population.

    I had a nasty case of these little flying buggers and NOTHING worked until I used this! It does smell harshly but it works brilliantly on all the pests and critters I have come across from japanese beetles, stink bugs, fruit flies and spiders.

    PT 565 Plus XLO

    By Andy on 09/05/2011

    Verified Purchase

    As a Certified Pest Control Operator, I cannot say enough about this aerosol and is a must for my business. Terrific for flushing out roaches hiding in the most obscure places in both residential and commercial accounts. Used primarily for cleanouts, my staff agrees that it does the job for us, and we will continue to use it as effectively as we can. Crack and crevice treatments are no longer a "chore" and it is a time saver. Very effective for quick knockdowns, including ants and spiders.on initial services.

    Best bug killer around!

    By Linda on 07/11/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I started using this spray by accident. My spray man left it here by mistake and it works amazing! I always had a problem with those small sugar ants. If find where they are coming from and spray they are GONE! It works wonders. I am so glad I am able to buy it here myself. Can't do without it. Even gave a can to my kids for their houses! Best spray bug killer ever!

    Absolutely the best!

    By Yola on 10/23/2012

    Verified Purchase

    This product stops pests in their tracks...literally. I have tried many store-bought pesticides but they do not come close to matching the killing power in this professional quality pesticide. Spiders cannot hide from this! I will be ordering again and I highly recommend it.

    Seems to work

    By K on 10/10/2010

    Verified Purchase

    After the first daytime application of the Pyrethrin I actually saw a bed bug flee the area treated. This was the first one I had actually seen despite having been bitten several times. I spray around the bed and surrounding areas about every 3 days and experience no bites, if I am late I will be bitten so this is not a great long term product. I had an exterminator come in for an inspection and he seemed impressed that I had chosen the 565 Plus XLO though recommended that I buy a product which lasts longer if I continue to suffer from the little bugs.

    Ant Solution

    By Eric on 06/09/2011

    Verified Purchase

    I had this product before. I received a sample from the maintenance man at my old duplex. I used it at the new house but we ran out. Just recently, the dog left a chew stick out and they were back. I ordered a couple of bottles, and sprayed the inside of the house and no more ants. I have to go and apply the outside application yet, then we will be ant free for a good while. Very good product, spray the inside and outside of the house and you will not have a problem for a long time.

    This is an "Ok" product

    By Ga on 05/27/2013

    Verified Purchase

    This product is "ok," it smells a lot, and the spray flies everywhere. The direct spray cap is also very hard to put on, I ended up not using the direct spray cap due to it being difficult to put on. Heads-up, this spray is for a direct spray killing of pest, and does not leave a residual to continue killing off bugs.

    Wool area rug moth infestation

    By Rick on 11/24/2011

    Verified Purchase

    We bought this 9x11 area rug about 4 years ago, and have been fighting moths ever since. We ordered this product, using the spray can we took the rug outside and sprayed both the lower and upper sides. Then we rolled it up and covered it up for 24hrs. After a good vacuuming afterwards, we brought the rug back in the house and placed it in its position. We have not seen any sign of moths ever since. P.S.: I wore long sleeve clothes, a hood and a respirator and waited for a time when we had very little wind.

    The good

    By Bob on 02/14/2013

    Verified Purchase

    This product works, you don't need to use more then the directions state. I have used other OTC products that have an odor that you can get sick with and did not work as well, so you end up using more. I have used this product for years and do recommend it. The price here was the best.

    Great for killing scorpions

    By Neil on 04/28/2011

    Verified Purchase

    This is what we use to kill Arizona bark scorpions when we go out hunting for them with the black light. It still takes a few minutes for them to die, but it has been the most effective aerosol that we've used.

    USE CB-80 EXTRA INSTEAD AND DO YOURSELF A FAVOR

    By Mark on 09/04/2012

    Verified Purchase

    I liked CB-80 Extra but decided to give the 565 a try because it seemed to be a better deal for essentially the same product. Wrong ! I only used one quick burst in my foyer--it stunk to high heaven and even worse left a sticky residue on my nice hardwood floors. I'm going back to the CB-80. The smell is not that bad or persistent and it leaves no residue. Note that this class of insecticide is not persistent i.e. it doesn't keep working long. I'd try the indoor Talstar because the outdoor works good but I can't waste any more money on bad choices.

    I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DO MY OWN PEST CONTROL

    By Pete on 07/13/2016

    I was a pest control service technician for a major pest control company in Florida. Now retired, I was concerned about being able to treat my new home with high quality pesticides. DO MY OWN PEST CONTROL is a great company with quality products at a fair price. Brands available are those used by major companies. 565 PLUS XLO is my pesticide of choice for treating and controling insects. It knocks down roaches and palmetto insects with immediate action. It is a great product that gets the job done. The shipping was immediate and I received my items within three days. I highly recommend DO MY OWN PEST CONTROL.

    Household Standby

    By Beverly on 04/18/2017

    I live in bug infested Florida in a mobile home. I've been buying this 565 Plus XLO for a couple of years now because it's really excellent at getting rid of any critters in my house. (I use along with roach traps and am pest free). I keep a bottle of this stuff in every room because I'm very bug adverse, and this works on ants, water beetles, etc and that's what I need.
