Ortho Home Defense Max. It’s completely odorless. I’ve had great results inside and out. Don’t forget to spray inside the brick weep slots. When you run low, buy a gallon of refill and change the AA batteries in the original spray wand.
How do you apply? In just the corners only, around all baseboards, etc.?
Does it dry clear?

Yes, it dries clear. Just walk through your house and spray the baseboards. Suspend is also very good, and I guess it’s cheaper to buy the concentrate and mix batches in a pump sprayer. However, in my opinion the convenience of the OHD Max is worth the extra money. No measuring, no mixing, no cleaning the pump sprayer, etc. Just grab OHD, shake it for 15 seconds, spray, and put it away. You can do your whole house, inside and out in 20 minutes.

Ortho has started to get away from battery powered wands and now some use a non powered windex trigger sprayer. I thought I would hate it, but love not worrying about batteries.

Ortho dries clear. (Low bifenthrin)
Talstar and other (high) bifenthrin products do not dry clear, they will leave water marks, especially on windows.
H&G SUPER TIP: Tractor Supply carries Wisom TC Flowable which is generic Talstar (Bifenthrin 7.9%). $40 for 32oz local pickup. This is what I use now instead of ordering online and waiting.
