Bonide Repels-All Animal Repellent, 32 oz Ready-to-Use Spray, Outdoor Garden Deer & Rabbit Repellent, People & Pet Safe

Works great but must saturate plants every week in order for it to work.

I used Repels-All Spray around my garden, flower beds, and a few areas where rabbits and squirrels were causing problems. The spray was easy to apply, and within a few days I noticed significantly less animal activity. What I like most is that it uses natural ingredients and doesn't harm the animals—it simply encourages them to stay away. The scent is noticeable right after application, but it fades for people while still doing its job. I've also appreciated that it's safe to use around pets when used as directed. After several weeks, my plants have suffered far less damage than before. If you're looking for a humane way to protect your yard, garden, or landscaping, this product is definitely worth trying.

Unfortunately, I do not have a good review of this item. When I received it I was excited to use it as we have a band of squirrels that are eating up the flowers and trashing the porch, and I thought this product would be the answer to that problem. Well, I sprayed it on the rail of the porch and the smell nearly chased us away, let alone the animals. Then before we knew it the porch rail was covered with flies! I don't think I've ever seen that many flies all group together. It was horrible. We were so grossed out by it I immediately had to spray insect spray on top of that. Then I had To burn calendula torches to get rid of both the smell of the Animal repellent spray and the raid. And after all of that, I realize all I needed was essential oil and possibly a torch🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ I was instantly over it. Unless you like swarms of flies, do not buy this spray. The smell alone will make you run away. I return this immediately. I have so many bad things to say I can't stop saying bad things about it. The pic I submitted with this review is one small section of the porch rail that was covered in flies Where I had sprayed that animal repellent. I wanted to give this no stars, but I have to give it at least one star in order to submit this review.

This is the worst smell that I have ever experienced in my life. It even lingered in my nose after I stopped spraying and went into the house. As someone else noted it repels animals and humans. One lady stated that maybe you should alert your neighbors before spraying, and this is definitely a fact. Will it work? I really hope so because it’s definitely repelling me. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is because I don’t know if it works yet, but I think if you ever need something thats similar to bio warfare without the life threatening toxins, and you want to get back at a human, this is the perfect thing to use. My gosh.

something ran off with the bottle... yes some kind of critter took the bottle, sprayed it one time to see how bad it smelled and it was gone the next morning. ( I am in the woods, far from random people to walk by) So it did smell strong but I'm not sure how well it works, but something loves it.

No doubt this stuff at least initially works like a charm, but I do have some cautions to share from my mistakes. Ok, 9 out of 10 of you will read this review and go well, duh lady. This review is for the tenth person who may be overeager, overly efficient or just trying to get stuff done in the five minutes they have without a preschooler clinging on to them. I haven't had this stuff down for more than three hours but let me tell you the dogs in the neighborhoor were howling after my overdose application and there has not been a squirrel, chipmunk or bird in my yard for over 3 hours--and that is a really big deal because usually it looks like a wildlife sanctuary. While I did have good enough logic to wear gloves and do this application on a day with a gentle breeze when the neighbors would not be home, I did overdo it a little. When you first apply the stuff it smells like garlic and hot pepper wax, not appealing but tolerable and you become immune to the odor as you apply it pretty quickly. It takes a few minutes for the true sulfury stench of rotten eggs to kick in (about the time it took me to give a very healthy dose to all my gardens and the permiter of my lawn and in every chipmunk, vole hole in the yard.) Had I known how revolting that kick up smell would have been I probably would have done the yard in small doses instead of one kill. Also, despite wearing gloves it got on me just a little as I sprayed. One hour later and four shampoos I can still smell the stuff in my hair. So here are my aftermath probably obvious words of wisdom 1. If you need to apply alot or have close neighbors. If you value your neighbors wait until they are not home or at least warn them. 2. A little at a time is a better way to go 3. Don't do this when you need close human contact with someone, like before a big party or a job interview. 4. Wear clothes you can burn or bleach the stink out of and wear a hat and put long hair back. 5. If there are any wild animals you actually like in your yard keep this stuff clear from them (i.e. a pet bunny or birds you feed)--My indoor hamster seems pretty on edge. 6. This might actually repel bigger animals like your cat or dog, as it definitely upset the neighbors dog who was a good 3,000 square feet away. 7. Keep the windows closed and do this on a day where there is a light breeze so it doesn't permeate for long. So, after about an hour the yucky smell is gone and there are still no animals who dare enter my yard and honestly even if I have to apply it (a little at a time) on the real problem areas several times over the summer I will be a very happy camper. Also delighted that the stuff is organic so while the neighbors dogs won't be visiting my yard anytime soon, if they do I won't be hurting them. Follow Up: This stuff does need to be applied again after a heavy rain. It seems to have the longest impact on things like pea plants or that an animal would actually try to eat. This isn't a miracle in all regards but I still contend its one of the best offerings on the natural side that I have ever tried and the first few days it certainly has a huge impact.

I have MANY visitors through my back yard and I have been searching for something that won’t harm them, but just make them go “ew no thanks.” We have cameras set up and we have had nothing trigger those cameras since applying it to the perimeter of our backyard, so very effective in my opinion. My only warning is, it does stink. But only while it’s wet and recently applied. It does dry and go away, so it doesn’t linger. It’s easy to apply, the liquid sprays and drys clear, and a little goes a long way so the amount of liquid will likely last a while. Overall, very happy!

Since I received it I have used it twice all around my patio and entry door to my living room. On the first night I saw a possum on my patio walking around like he owned the place. There is nothing on my patio to entice it!! The next night and last night we saw 2 LARGE mice (looked more like rats) walking around and checking out the poison container they normally eat from but I emptied out so there was NOTHING to draw them to my patio! If this is suppose to repel everything why did the 2 mice/rats and the possum not seem to care?? I put it out 2 times in three days to be sure it was covered good! Not working!
