There's no need to leave the house after using this, as the smell will dissipate within a few hours; it may take longer if sprayed heavily.

    On a monthly basis, I purchase Stem Ant-Roach-Fly-Insect Killer Bug Spray to deal with the fruit fries in the kitchen, from spring to fall. With a spritz here and there, it does the job perfectly. I love how it's safe for people and pets, and made from natural ingredients like essential oils. It's also on my list to buy all the time.

    Thanks for reaching out! I'm sorry to hear of your experience. STEM Ants, Roaches & Flies Spray is designed to fight nature with nature. Being made with essential oils, this spray does have a stronger fragrance. Usually, the smell dissipates within a few hours; it may take longer if sprayed heavily. Be sure to ventilate the area and wipe surfaces with warm, soapy water to get rid of the smell quicker. If we can be of further assistance, give our experts a call at 877-869-7546 (weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT) and provide reference number: 22942185.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in return for my honest review of the product. I really didn't care for this product at all nor will I be purchasing it again. The scent was pungent and it hung around for hours afterwards. I had tried to use this product to kill ants that were around the outside of my home and it didn't kill them unless I really drowned them with it. I could have killed them faster with scalding hot water.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the STEM Indoor and Outdoor Bug Spray and was impressed with how well it worked. It killed ants and flies on contact, and I felt comfortable using it since it’s plant-based and safe around kids and pets. I also really liked the light lemongrass scent it’s much better than the strong chemical smell of other sprays. The only small downside is that I needed to reapply it a couple of times, and it can leave a slight residue. Overall, I think it’s a great eco-friendly option that I’ll keep using.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First and foremost, I hate the scent of big spray. I find it rather noxious. But I live in area where ants, fire ants, and stinging bugs are plentiful so I have to keep a can nearby on my porch. If I want to enjoy outside at my house...I have to get rid of a big or two. I like this because it's in a spray bottle and I can lock the bottle from spraying. I can safely grip the handle and aim it. I don't have to shake up the contents to get a spray that actually reaches the bugs. The scent is not overpowering at all. It's still a big spray and it will smell like it but not so strong that it takes my breath away. My only qualm is the spray is oily. So I can't spray directly on my wood deck without leaving stain that I have to scrub out later. I will purchase with my own money after I run out.

It does have a faint scent so I left my windows open while having it saturate my netting to avoid new insects coming in.
