MQ7 offers an all natural, non-toxic Indoor/Outdoor Insect Control formulation that is safe enough to use around children and pets. Unlike other chemical based products containing Organophosphates, MQ7 can be applied as often as needed without the lingering ill effects of toxic residue. MQ7 is made from scientifically modified, highly concentrated cedar oil. Throughout history, cedar has been known to repel insects naturally and this is why today we are accustomed to the use of cedar products, such as closets, chests, and other cedar wood products. MQ7 will repel fleas, chiggers, mites, ants, mosquitoes, scorpions, grubs, flies, gnats, moths, no-see-ums, ticks, silverfish, carpet beetles, earwigs, crickets, spiders, firebrats, palmetto bugs and grasshoppers. For over 10 years, a team of scientists have contributed to the development of MQ7. We have identified the very few components within a specific cedar species that have the ultimate repellency property. We take those components and scientifically-modify the cedar oil to intensify these components to come up with our highly concentrated proprietary formulation of MQ7. MQ7 is a much safer alternative to other chemical based products containing Organophosphates. MQ7 works because of an insects' olfactory system's intense dislike for the smell of cedar. In our own test, we identified an ant hill with ants entering and exiting the ant hill. We sprayed the ant hill thoroughly with MQ7 Indoor/Outdoor Insect Control and walked away. We revisited the ant hill in 15-20 minutes and noticed no ant activity. All the ants vacated the ant hill.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
On the plus side, this stuff does smell like juniper, but I didn't buy it solely for fragrance. I wanted an insect repellent. Unfortunately, house flies love this stuff. They land right on the surfaces sprayed with it. Not only that, but it attracts a higher number of super smart bionic house flies. These are the kinds of flies that are smart enough to hang out on surfaces where they can't be hit at all, such as on electrical cords, and in between the cabinet door closures. Or if they actually land where you can hit them, you have to hit more than once with a fly swatter to kill them. I had nearly gotten rid of all the flies in my house with other products I used, and then I sprayed this stuff, and now I have a new proliferation of house flies.
