Ello all-knowing ATOT buds,

I'm trying to seal up my house from insects, etc. just walking in through our doors and windows. I've heard a couple of suggestions for Demand CS but kinda had my mind set on ordering Ortho Home Defense due to previous recommendations and reviews.

Now I'm kind of in a pickle and can't decide which to order...

Any suggestions?

EDIT: I live in Florida for whatever difference it makes.

I think that whichever way you go, you're gonna be disappointed.

MOST insects will just walk right over whatever spray you use. Yes, the sprays will kill many/most on contact, but once it dries, it's not going to do what you want...and the invaders will just continue getting in the house.

I bought BifenIT a couple years ago and it's been awesome. I live in florida, as well. Same ingredient as in the ortho home defense, but you can apply in higher concentrations.

occasionally see a small spider web, but I haven't seen a bug in my house in 2 years.

Well, can't vouch for long term protection against other critters, but Raid is amazing VS ants. It was killing them for up to a year, in a shower. Now that's tough.

been using ortho inside the house in S Tx for the past couple of years and really like it. easy to apply, have seen maybe 3 or 4 scorpions during all that time. I think it works well.
