Hot Shot No Mess! Fogger With Odor Neutralizer, Kills Carpenter Ants, Spiders & Fleas, 3 Count, 1.2 Ounce

Cigarette beetles are seen as a nuisance pest and they are... unless you have thousands of dollars worth cigars in your house. Then they are absolutely terrifying. They got into my garage and multiplied into the thousands. The first fogger killed enough that I was able to locate thier nest by following the corpses (box of dog bones) and the second took out any that were eggs when I set the first one off. The only ones I've seen alive since then were a few stragglers that managed to make it out of the garage 🤞... no lingering smell.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I have used these many times. We always fog our house when we leave for vacation and our dogs are with us. Always a few dead bugs when we return, and there seems to be a lasting impact on infestation. Living in Florida makes bugs, especially roaches a part of daily life unless you treat regularly. Been using this product for 10 years or more and recommend it

These are awesome, just make sure to run out of the room/house for a few hours. I got a breathful before and it stings your throat real bad - make sure your pets are outdoors also. Follow all directions and it works good. Just as well as the exterminator did. Now I realize fleas are going to just be something that happens and etwrrn tbis stuff, preventative, and a flea spray I reviewed earlier, I have yet to see a flea and I have no bites.

The Hot Shot 96180 fogger is a great solution for tackling indoor insect problems. It’s super easy to use just set it off and let it do its job. I used it in a closed room for several hours, and it noticeably reduced cockroaches and other crawling insects. What I liked most is that it doesn’t leave a strong odor or sticky residue, which is especially important for areas like the kitchen or rooms with clothes. It’s great for both preventive use and when you’re already seeing pests. Just make sure to follow the instructions and ventilate the room afterward. Practical and effective product.

Does the job! Read directions closely. Had bad infestation of American cockroaches and I was pleasantly surprised after using. I’ll do another treatment after two weeks. It works!!!

No after smell, no stickiness, but feel like it didn’t kill fleas or flea eggs, or fly eggs

I have been using "Hot Shot No-Mess! Fogger" for several years now. Basically if I ever see a living bug in my garage; well, it is time. Few things are better than that satisfaction of finding dead bugs in the corner, and finding yourself in the conundrum "Do I sweep up its corpse? Or shal I leave it for all to see, so others will know what their future holds should they opt to make my garage their home?"If you're like me, and enjoy that satisfaction; but, you couldn't be bothered cleaning up residue, or that awful stench of pesticide others may leave behind, this is definitely the product to get the job done. It's no holds bar with this product, see a bug in your bedroom? Pop one off on your way to work, and close the door. I assure you, its corpse will await you upon your inspection, and with a simple sheet covering your comforter or just changing your sheets all together, there is nothing for you to worry about.Sitting in your office and see a killer silverback run under your desk? Take a 3 hour break; but, first pop one of right on top of your desk while making eye contact with the silverback, as you slowly back out of the room and shut the door. Come back to an empty can of Hot Shot, and a room full of corpses ready to be swept away by the hand of God, otherwise known as your vacuum.My favorite place, and the place I use this once every few months, or whenever I see something living which ever comes first, the garage. Nothing more unpleasant than looking for something in your garage only to get bit by a black widow hiding under your set of irons you stopped using years ago because you were embarrassed you spent so much money and still couldn't get to the greens under par. NO MORE! Use one of these as it starts to get cold, as it starts to get warm, or whenever something living other than a pet or child comes strolling across your eye sight.Side bar; as if this entire review wasn't one. I bought an old car a few years back as a beater to well, beat. Every time I got in the car I felt like I was getting crawled on by God knows what. I assume it was little fleas, chiggers, or any other of the copious amounts of meaningless nuisances mother nature sees fit to roam the earth and make it an extremely unpleasant experience for every thing else. It was an old 92 corolla not much more than 10 square feet available. I set one of these off and locked the door, asserting a painful death to all of mother natures greatest creations inside of my beautiful, rust bucket. Never again did I feel anything crawling on me for the years to come before someone rear ended me and the frame shattered to dust, as if an old pile of leaves fell out from under it.

June 17th, 2025:My home has some degree of silverfish infestation every spring/summer. In past years, I would spray 3 cans of this stuff in the basement utility room, and 1 or 2 cans in the bathroom just upstairs from that, and the problem would be gone for a month at least, if not until next year.THIS year… I could see, each use was killing some bugs, BUT, more would come the next day, literally crawling all over next to their dead buddies.By the time that I switched products to something more effective, we had a whole-house infestation, and we had to drop an atomic bomb and move out for three nights.CLEARLY, the manufacturer of this product is using LESS poison in the mix, than in prior years.And yes, I tried different batches that I had bought at different times since last year. I also ordered a new batch. Same problem with every batch. It is the product itself.The manufacturer is saving too much money on the active ingredient. The product has become INEFFECTIVE.
