Gotcha Sprayer Pro

I have a wasp problem around the house, six nests this time, most were all of the way up top near the vents at the top of the roof. The wasp spray says it sprays 25 feet, which actually means about 12 feet, so I needed one of these. It's easy to use, strap in the can, attach a pole or broom handle, and use the string to spray the can. The only thing I wish they would do is include some kind of pull handle/trigger to mount at the bottom of the pole to activate the spray instead of just a string. This would provide a better way to hold it steady while trying to spray at extended heights.

Great one, I got the job done. That is a 13 feet lattice, I forgot to paint it before I had it installed. No sir, did not want to hurt myself trying to paint the lattice. So I looked around for tools. This is what I used, plus the pole which I will add to this review. The only comment is that the top would be designed a little better. When I would spray the paint, it would catch the top and drip paint. I added pieces of cardboard between the bottom of the tigger and the top of the sprayer to create a little distance so the paint would not get caught up on the top of the yellow part of the sprayer. Other than that, it is an amazing product.

I needed to take care of a nasty hornets nest near the back deck area of a relative's home who is allergic to bee stings plus they have small children and pets that frequent the deck area where social gatherings occur on a regular basis in the Summer and Fall. This nest was in a somewhat difficult location to reach with normal measures. The Gotcha adapter solved the problem quickly and efficiently. The adapter worled perfectly and allowed me to saturate the nest with wasp/hornet spray. I have zero complaints and now have an item I am sure I will use in the future. As long as you tighten everything down properly you will have zero problems with this item. The pull cord is thin but that is not a factor at all it works great. I wrapped it around my hand a couple of times and just pulled down and it worked flawlessly. I am sure this item will be borrowed by my friends in the future who saw me using it in action. I better get it back when they are done using it. You know what I mean.

This is a wonderful product. Arrived very quickly after ordering. The product is very sturdy and the mechanics are well thought out. I had a problem with Carpenter Bees boring 7 holes in the fascia trim of a 2 story house. Naturally, regular pesticides wouldn't come close to reaching the area. After receiving the Gotcha Sprayer Pro I immediately attached it to an extension pole and went to work. The spray can was held securely and had the ability to be positioned at lots of angles. Word of Advice: Be sure to have more than one can of spray available. Normally we shoot a quick burst of spray at a sitting or nesting insect. With the spray attached to the Sprayer Pro a pull of the string and the product streams out of the can. In my excitement, plus practicing my aiming, I went through the first can in seconds. (Forgot to let go of the string. haha) I used different products with the sprayer, each had a different circumference but the sprayer adjusted easily to fit each one. I also added a little sting to reach back to the roof line. Great product! I look forward to finding other uses for it. Yes, the bees are gone.

The 4Most Innovations GSP0205 Gotcha Sprayer Pro Aerosol Spray Can Extension Pole Adapter (let's call it 'the adapter') helped solve a problem in applying lubricant to a difficult-to-reach part of my experimental aircraft.

As part of an annual 'condition inspection' for my GlaStar aircraft, the bellcrank and other moving parts in the tail need to be lubricated, but crawling through a narrow fuselage some five feet into the back—over control cables that shouldn't be disturbed—has never been a pleasure. But this year I got the idea of reaching those hard-to-reach areas using an extension pole adapter; with lubricant attached, the 4Most adapter worked like a charm, turning a painful chore into an easy task.

One small hiccup surfaced when I discovered that out of the box, the nylon nut securing the adapter was stripped. With her apologies for my trouble, the seller promptly sent me several replacement nylon nuts by return mail, but in the interim I chose to upgrade the part with an inexpensive metal wing nut and washer from a local big-box home improvement store.

Since then I've used the adapter to safely clear out a nasty nest of hornets. The build quality of this product is superior to cheaper versions found on Amazon, and I recommend it without reservation.

I had my doubts, but I needed to get a decent coat of stain on a canopy roof over my backyard deck. I knew that the Krylon spray products would be great on my redwood boards, but I simply had no way to be able to reach them without having to get up on a high ladder... not so easy at my age now.

So, I got the Gotcha Sprayer Pro and I am so GLAD I did. It is very sturdy and superbly designed. It holds those 12-oz. cans of Krylon stain very securely -- no wiggle or budge at all when you tighten down on them. And the Gotcha is very lightweight so that if you have an aluminum extension pole, you won't have trouble with it being too heavy with the spray can attached on the end of it, or hard to control.

Want more? The lever that presses down on the can's spray button is placed exactly where you want it, and the long cord that you pull to depress it is very durable, too. And, when you're done, the whole thing is very easy to clean up... I just used water to remove the little bits of splatter from the can even though the Krylon stain is oil-based.

My biggest worry before ordering was that the whole thing would "wibble-wobble" around on the end of an extension pole and not provide a good, secure grip, or hold-on-target. Nothing like that was a problem with this Gotcha sprayer pro. It was rock-solid, and I finished my staining job in about one-third the time I thought it would take.

I don't know what you'd have to do to break this wonderful tool, but if I ever do, I'm sure it'll be my fault and I'll order one another right away. THIS is how you want to spray things that are just too hard to reach and too dangerous to try to reach, either. I hope that helps you!

Typically I'm reluctant to buy gadgets like this that only serve a single purpose. I find that I use them once for their intended purpose, throw them in a drawer or cabinet, and find them again when I'm deep cleaning years later.

After struggling with a paper wasp nest in one of my 24' eaves, almost falling off a ladder, and realizing that there has to be an easier way because risking life and limb for something like that didn't seem worth it, I set out to find, what I later learned, would be this item. No longer do I have to lug a large extending ladder around my home, climb to the top, spray the nest, and hastily (and recklessly) retreat down the rungs.

I went around the exterior of my home today and took care of three separate developing paper wasp nests in about 10 minutes. I can't recommend this item highly enough.

The only downside is that I had a couple neighbors come over to watch me performing the wasp eradication with this contraption hooked to the end of a 20' extendable pole, and I suspect that come summer time, I'm going to be loaning the whole setup out quite a bit.

So, the other night I tried to spray a bald faced hornets nest in the top of an attic dormer - probably almost 25 ft up. Even being on the 1st floor roof, the "25 ft range" wasp and hornet killer sprayed less than 15 ft - barely reaching the nest - but enough to pi$$ them off. Talk about sketchy - trying to get back on and down a ladder with angry hornets. We were going to call an exterminator - but figured this was worth a shot, as compared to a $100+ exterminator. It worked great. I had a 10 foot extension pole - climbed about 6' up the ladder, pointed and pulled the string. The can was probably 5' from the nest and I was able to saturate the nest pretty well. I'm going to get another can and go another round before trying to knock the nest down with the garden hose. I used a wrap of gorilla tape to secure the can based on the reviews - didn't even try it without. I felt safe and saved a bunch of $$ by not calling an exterminator.
