Rocky Mountain Goods Hose Sprayer - 16oz Bottle - Small 7.5" x 7.5" Size - for Spraying Fertilizer, Soap, Pesticide, Chemical, Insecticide - Dilution Adjuster - Nozzle Angle Guide for Trees/Garden

This 2024 summer, for whatever reason, there's an infestation of webworm in this southeastern coast of Texas. Thousands of caterpillars would devour our tree leaves. Not only does it make the tree unsightly, there are literally 30 caterpillar crawling up and down our patio and along our exterior sidewalls. Caterpillars don't bite of course, but they eat and produce lots of droppings. For a while it feels like my patio smelled like a farm with dry straw and hays (guess caterpillars eat the leaves and their droppings make it feel that way) After reading many pos/neg reviews, still decided to buy this Rocky Mountain Goods sprayer. IT WORKS ! Simply hook it up to a hose and it'll spray. i'll demystify a few negative comments: 1. The bottle did come w/ metric measurements and imperial units directly marked on the bottle. On the bottle, there's clear marking for each of the dials 1- 10 settings that corresponds to the equivalent ml/liter (metric) and oz/gallon (imperial) concentration For even more diluted applications (teaspoon instead of tablespoon), there's a little copper piece that you can unscrew from the top of the bottle, screw onto the nozzle tubing inside the bottle, and that allows low level vs. full level adjustment. Again, this is clearly marked on the bottle. I think there's a user submitted video on this amazon product page that shows exactly this. 2. Yes it does leak the pesticide. BUT, only if you tilt the bottle. For me , I had to aim the spray to as high as possible to top of the tree branches, so I had to tilt the bottle upwards, rather than flat (aiming straight, bottle perpendicular to the ground). Tilting it at an angle does allow the product in the bottle to back flow out. However, I think this is expected. If you hold it upright, no risk of leaking. 3. I'd say with decent water pressure 60psi, the spray will spray in a fan-out pattern, probably as distant as 6-8 feet. I didn't not true tampering with the piece at the tip of the sprayer, it appears that it can be removed, but I did not try. 4. I've had it for 6 wks, used about 4 times. It feels like the product will hold up well. The sprayer itself is made of copper it seems, and feels sturdy. I expect it'll last for a little while. Overall very happy with my purchase.

I use Wondercide to keep the mosquitos out of my yard, but didn’t love the sprayer that came with it. I bought one of the cheaper, all-plastic sprayers and it was worse in that a) it leaked water while I was spraying, b) didn’t spray very far unless you turned up the hose pressure which then made the leaking worse, and c) had some sort of emergency release mechanism which would release randomly spilling the product all over. I debated getting this versus another, higher rated plastic one. This one is twice the price but looked very well made. This one had fewer reviews though and I wondered “is it worth paying that much more?” The answer is yes! I used it this morning and there was zero leaking. The spray went further without upping the hose pressure. It was easy to use. All I did was put the Wondercide in, attach everything, set the dial as instructed, and spray. One or two of the reviews here mention not being able to get it to work. I have no idea how that would be possible unless they got a faulty unit. It looks and feels like it will last forever. I accidentally dropped it and had no leaks or issue. In my opinion, it’s absolutely worth the money. I just wanted to leave this review to help folks like me who over think purchases like this. Lol.

I got this for some liquid fertilizer. I’m not sure any fertilizer was dispersed with it. What I can tell you is the bottle filled with water and then started leaking and dripping fertilizer all over my hand. I emailed the company as they requested if there are problems, but I’ve never had a response. So if anyone knows how to make this work properly I’d love to hear.

Good: Sturdy (but see below). Mix control is easy to use and effective; using Simple Green I went from pure water to threaten-to-bury-the-car soapsuds with a twist of the knob. Simple control twists to direct spray as needed. Soap / whatever capacity good, lasted for more than an hour of car / siding washing. Bad: Limited to a single fan spray that's off-center no matter how you twist the control; takes some getting used to. Spray range isn't as good as I'd expected, cannot reach upstairs windows that my regular sprayer hits without difficulty. Might be even more useful without that fan diverter, which I tried to remove but gave up for fear of breaking it. Ugly: Sprung a leak near the mix control as I was turning the water off. Doesn't seem to be a loose nut or such; will have to peel back the sticker on the control and inspect. Bottom line: It's probably better than the cheap generic sprayers elsewhere on Amazon, but didn't impress me enough to justify its relatively high price. Four stars; will revise if that leak turns out to be a defect.

This style is great. The all plastic ones from big box stores don't work on thicker chemicals like my ant spray. This works perfectly.

Works well!

I purchased this device to spray my trees with insecticide. The unit works but the height of the spray is directly related to your available water pressure. Although my hose has very good water pressure, this device did nothing to aid in spraying trees. It probably works well up to say 10 ft. Beyond that you need some mechanical device to provide required pressure. I believe it will be useful in spraying bushes and ground areas. But this will not handle the trees as shown in the video.

I ordered this for my husband to use in our large garden. He was tired of inferior ones that broke easily. This one is strongly made and should outlast the lesser quality spray guns/nozzles he has used before for fertilisers and pest spraying. He is very happy. They are not cheap though as we are in Australia- this one worked out to about A$72 with P and H added etc but the quality is there. Hope it lasts now.

Useless doesn’t pull liquid from tank - also American fitment which does not come with the unit - so useless all around - returned to amazon.

I use this to spray liquid fertiliser. The ready to use packs of fertiliser that you connect a hose to are very hit and miss. Sometimes they empty quickly and sometimes take forever. So the concentration of fertiliser is too much or too little. With this sprayer you can dial in the strength according to the recommendations of the fertiliser manufacturer (requires a bit of maths for ratios. I use setting 2 for full strength Seasol or similar). TIP; Buy the fertiliser in the bigger packs as it is cheaper and more concentrated.

Had two, first one didn't suck from bottle, replacement was same, boosted my water pressure slight improvement, but wouldn't pull any lower than 400ml. Do amazon actually test these products? Utter waste of time.

Easy to use
