156481 Bug Paint Additive, 5 Gallon

I recently had my whole house painted and bought 3 of these. I probably should have purchased 4, because my painter used it all up. I had to continually remind the painter to keep stirring the paint to keep it mixed in, but I didn't hover over them to make sure. I had previously used this to paint my porch ceiling over 5 years ago and never had a single spiderweb or bug infestation on it. I live in south Florida and that's rare, so I know this stuff works. On my whole house, only time will tell.

I never in my life thought this would be a thing or that I would love it so much, it literally repels the bugs and kills the ones that come in contact with the paint. I have watched bugs land and DIE on areas we have painted!. We had added this to everything we've painted and even added it to paint and re-painted areas of our home we love it so much! This will also be added when we paint the exterior of our home, we will be bug free in no time!

I was not sure if this was actually going to work but thought it was worth a try anyways. Every summer I had problems with wood bees digging holes in my deck and I wanted to find a solution. Adding this to my oil based stain seems to do the trick. I watched the bees land on the wood and fly away. I have only observed this for about a month now but I hope this lasts. It did not change the color of my stain in anyway and I simply added a little bit to my stain when I was putting it on. I know its a bit pricey but it seems to be doing the trick.

I've used this product for years and it's hard to tell whether it works. What I can say is that until I started dusting the carpenter bees were having a field day. What I can't say is whether it would have been worse if I hadn't used the product.

I have used this insecticide paint additive for many years. I use it in combination with a mold inhibitor as well. Great for exterior painting, especially where a lot of insects are present. No wasps, mud dobbers, spiders, etc. DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR ANY SURFACES THAT PEOPLE OR PETS COME IN CONTACT WITH. It is a persistant, residual poison. Toxic! But great for the outside of a house, barn, shed, etc. It really works!

I'm disappointed, it doesn't work as well as I had hoped. Spiders still like to make homes in the eaves where I painted. I wouldn't buy again. What works good is the spray Home Defender from local home improvement stores. Not to mix in paint but to spray around top & bottom of buildings, of course after a couple months need to reapply because of rains.

I had my house professionally painted and had my painter add 1 container to every 5gal bucket as instructed. My painter had never heard of it and thought it was too good to be true. I went to the Dunn Edward’s store to make sure it was comparable with my paint and they had the same reaction, but told me it’s fine to add to the paint nonetheless. Not only did it not work…but I kid you not, the next day my entire house was COVERED in little tiny gnats! It’s been about 4 months since I had the house painted with this product and I definitely have spider webs in the eves and corners, under the windowsills….this stuff totally didn’t work. Like at all. Zero stars.
