This is not deal and is a ripoff. You are much better buying the real deal concentrate and mixing your own. Use the stuff the pest control people use versus the homeowner soaking class stuff that makes a corporation wealthy with your hard earned cash

Price here for this product is tens time as much at $8.50 a gallon versus $0.84 per gallon for the professional concentrate.

$1.68 for two gallons versus $17.

For $6 more you get 30 more gallons or more depending the ratio needed. The cost of a sprayer is easily swallowed up by the savings.
I've purchased and used this before, the product itself is very good as far as insect defense goes but the engineering of the battery-operated pump/wand is woeful... at least 75% of the time it just flat-out does not work, so be prepared to pour the solution out of the jug it comes in and into a different spray bottle for application.

Love this stuff but 2 gallons is a lot. This is a good price if you need it or you need some split with a neighbor.

While at Lowe's, be sure to pick up a ZEP branded spray bottle. Those work great for spraying any liquid even at long distances . It's what I use in place of this cheap non working sprayer.

Interesting, unfortunately Amazon won't ship this to me.

A few things you aren't considering:

1. Convenience - the time and exposure involved with mixing your own isn't worth saving a few dollars for many.
2. This also requires you to have a dedicated sprayer and use the entire mixed amount within a few hours.
3. Unsure why you would ever make the 'wealthy corporation' argument and follow it up with an Amazon link.
4. Lastly, it's wasteful to buy a chemical concentrate that you will not use before it loses shelf stability and becomes less effective. Most people are not mixing and spraying 30+ gallons within 2-3 years before the Bifenthrin expires.

1000% less is not few dollars. I have been using one quart of Bifenthrin since 2016 and it is still effective.for a cost of $21. If I add inthe cost of a sprayer I'm at $31. If you buy this yearly that cost will be near $200. It is really not hard to add some water and of the shelf sprayer that is not some dedicated gear and can be used for very many other things.

Yes, possibly for you it was worthwhile. However, calling this Ortho deal a "rip off" is narrow-minded. There are pros and cons to either approach.
Even in your case you are still going through 9 year old product that absolutely will not be as effective as it was pre-expiration - before active ingredient degradation.
Bear in mind that anyone who buys pure Bifenthrin and doesn't use it in time is required to follow EPA guidelines for disposal.
Time is money; it's the same reason we don't walk or bike everywhere instead of drive, despite those means being infinitely less expensive. One must factor in convenience.
Note - I do not recommend reusing your sprayer for anything else, unless you are making an extreme effort to thoroughly clean and flush it each time.
