If I am not running from my truck mount or the Maruyama MS075, that is my sprayer for spot applications. Especially if the spot application is RoundUp.

 

My bug guy comes every two months and he had a couple of those on his truck. They do scream quality.
He had this one:https://www.domyown.com/bg-sprayer-gallon-24-in-wand-extendaban-valve-n224s24-p-1423.html

 

So, that's what we're giving away on the 2 year anniversary, right? You just can't hide money @Ware, can you?

 

Every time they come I get "sprayer envy" . :lol:

 

Be sure and also check out this thread...

Want bugs and insects gone from your lawn and home?

 

@Ware, Man you don't know how bad I needed this. I have the @dfw_pilot wand on a 20v Chapin backpack sprayer for the outside, but the tee jets are heavy handed for the inside. So, I've been spraying the inside of the house with Ortho Home Defense. Guess I'll be buying this shortly, so I can use my better insecticides in my house. Thanks!

 

@Rackhouse Mayor that's pretty much where I was at. The pin stream is going to make a huge difference for me indoors. There may be a hack out there to build your own, but I don't think you would be disappointed with the quality of the B&G.

 

These are 10% off right now at Do My Own for those that are interested. I'm pulling the trigger. Thanks @Ware!

Are you just using the 4-way tip that came with it or did/will you get the Multeejet Crack and Crevice Tip (+ straw)?

Yes. You can order either configuration, but I called Do My Own and they said the one with 2 fan settings and 2 pin streams was the most popular. You can buy the cap that uses the crevice straw from them if you ever need it.

 

Do you need to use one of these metal ones for insecticides? Or are the normal plastic ones good? That's what I have been using, hope it's ok.

Plastic is fine. I ordered this one for the wand/tip features.

gotcha, so for the inside application you mentioned. Luckily, I am not doing anything inside, for now.

 

Someone else that bought one of these just brought this to my attention, and I agree 100%...

At first I was confused why the most popular B&G insecticide cans only had a 1-gallon capacity - I now realize it's because I was spraying way too much product out of my other sprayers. I can't say enough good things about the 4-way tip on this sprayer. The pin streams are just awesome, and the fan settings are much less aggressive than my lawn sprayers. :thumbup:

 

Have you guys with insect issues in the house insulated and sealed your rim joist in the basement? Do you a have basement or crawl space, or just house on slab?

 

Slab here, and I wouldn't say I have "insect issues". Perimeter spraying just eliminates what few bugs I do see, especially outside around the patio, in the garage, etc.

This pump sprayer is awesome. It's so nice to spray inside and the flow instantly shuts off without any drip whatsoever.

My unit actually came with the crevice straw and works great for inside spraying.

 

@PokeGrande do you have to remove the straw to use the fan setting?

 

I am finally going to order mine tonight. It will be used for spraying inside the house using fastcap. When you mix y'all's do you mix up a whole gallon? Half gal? Trying to figure it out because I don't want to have any left over and wonder what to do with the excess.

Yes, unfortunately, you do or else the straw gets in the way of the fan stream. I suppose it would still work ok for what you're trying to accomplish with the fan setting but I didn't spend a lot of time thinking about it and just removed it once I was finished inside. The most I'll have to do that is 4 times a year.

I mix up a whole gallon and spray the remainder around the perimeter of the house/patio.

 

Interior rate and rate for application to exteriors as a band or crack and crevice spray is the same. Rate is sharply reduced for general application to lawns and shrubs.

Nice video. I saw my neighbor being visited by Terminex. Looks like they had done exactly what you do yourself except Terminex was a lot more stingy with the outdoor perimeter application. They were only applying a little stream where the structure met the ground. For my home, I gun down all outside walls. Do not want mosquitoes, centipedes, or scorpions gaining entry. We do have Dengue Fever in Hawaii.

 

Thanks guys, now I will have a sprayer here tomorrow. I tell myself I have what I need but then keep reading and now, I will have a way better sprayer for indoors. I am looking forward to no drips in the house, I really hated that about the plastic sprayer. I was as careful as I could be but really wanted to control the application indoors. I don't have any insect issues to speak of but at times see ants and spiders and generally want to know we are as bug free as we can be. I will still use the plastic sprayer for the exterior with my also purchased Tee Jets but this will be great for inside.
