I mix 4 Oz of this in a Gilmour hose end sprinkler and add water to top and spray twice a year. It does not plug my sprayer and does a good job I also, in addition broadcast the granular Bifenthrin. I was having trouble with Springtails. Don't get discouraged as it takes awhile. Hope this helps good luck.

Possible clogging if not cleaned after usage. Remove nozzle and wash with hot soap and water, to ready for next time. Any chemical can clog after a period of non-use.

If talstar clogs your sprayer then this probably will too. That said you might want to switch to a bigger nozzle. You don't want to atomize this stuff, just put out a stream or mist to dry on a surface. It will minimize the amount you breathe in and maximize the effectiveness

Have you tried running Vinegar through it to clean the nozzle. Haven't tried it just a though.

I use a clean spray bottle that had a spray cleaner in it. Make sure it's clean.

Probably not - it will clog the sprayer. My daughter made an all natural pesticide that she couldn't spray - it was too thick.

I haven't had this problem but I would start with soaking the spray nozzle in hot soapy water to get rid of any build- up. Also check the end of the tube to make sure nothing is clogging it.

i had the same issue and found that it was the solid rubber washer in the spray valve. it appeared to be stuck in the valve chamber. i flipped it over in desperation and now it works fine. the older model had a built in tool in the spray lever to un-tighten the valve chamber.

I don't know, I don't have a problem with mine. Maybe there is built up sediment in your tank and sprayer. I hope that this helps. I also have a filter for the water on mine.

If you have hard water then it may have clogged up the dispenser nozzle. Try running hot water through the nozzle mechanism with a little soap. Rinse really well.

We did not have this issue or have to puncture anything - we simply removed the sprayer portion, filled with water, replaced the sprayer part and used. You may have received a defective bottle?

there are a few different nozzles. I cannor for the life of me remove the first one I used so the rest are useless to me.

I haven't had to use mine too many times yet as the spray seems to last quite awhile before having to respray it. I have used it a few times already and haven't had mine clogged up yet. Maybe it's the humidity where you live? I would imagine warm water should unclog the nozzle

Since mine is installed, the main valve has been remained open. If your spray head is leaking, my guess is that you have less than perfect parts and/or the installation was not done properly.

i haven't had any problem with this. As an FYI DON'T use the Bissell cleaning solution stuff. It WILL plug up the sprayers and something in it's innards. I was able to unclog the sprayers but the the innards had to be fixed by a pro. I am now using an organic alcohol based cleaning solution that is working very well. I don't know if this would void any warranty you may have.

The experience I've had is tip on container is dirty (clogged) or has maybe circuit board is not sending signal to sprayer to discharge water. The platinum series has lots of electrical issues. Hope this helps.

My sprinklers (5) all get equal pressure. Maybe something is clogging you sprinkler line. Maybe try to flush your system?

Mine continues to run but it's probably not a good idea as the motor for the sprayer also keeps running. It's like running a water fountain without water....it keeps squealing.

Hrm... we haven't had this happen to us, but my husband is hard-core about cleaning it after every use, especially since most of our uses involve kid or pet messes. Their website suggests using a paperclip to clean out the spray tip in case of a clog. There appears to be more suggestions here: www.bissell.com/FAQDetail.aspx?id=1191
