Aldi Atlas Kill & Protect Fast Knockdown Flying Insect Spray
Verified36 reviews
I cannot believe how ineffective this spray is! Considering it claims to be “Fast Kill” it’s anything but a fast killer. Minutes after spraying all corners of a room and more, I see mosquitoes still flying around! How is this a fast kill? It required a second spray and to be honest, I don’t think it really did the job. It’s a woeful product, save your money and buy a better brand. Definitely not one of Aldi’s “like brands, only cheaper “ Show details
Can confirm this product is absolute rubbish. Took me 3 cans to figure out its the product and not my aim. Doesn't matter how much you spray the flys do backspins better than Michael Jackson and in no time they're up flying again. Useless Show details
Gold stars to all the deadset funny reviews on THE WORLD'S WORST PRODUCT. We had some at my house and my daughter rang up in a tizz "... I just can't anymore" (flies not dying). The girlfriend also had a can and sure enough it is also useless. The flies pretend to be sick and then come back with mates. Mating. DO NOT BUY.

Atlas kill and protect – Have to disagree with others reviews. My goodness this awesome. Sprayed cos saw a cockroach in my pantry on the floor. Not one but several came out. Yuk along with other little bugs. All dead in minutes. So sprayed rest of corners in kitchen, omg even more came out and died. Yikes. I’m ocd with my kitchen benches etc. every day. Will being buying… Read more
another can tomorrow as sprayed a little in my bedroom, and more came out and died. So every room will be done tomorrow. Then vacuum the little creatures up. Ps this is the 1st I’ve ever done a review on any product. That’s how impressed I am.
Best one I have found – I have Pea Beu, Mortien & Atlas fly sprays. Since I heard about Atlas at Aldi, I now have the other brands gathering dust! Atlas kills blowies dead way quicker that the others. The flies killed with Atlas even seem to prevent the blowflies from, well, blowing! Show details
Negative reviews
Beware, this product is virtually ineffective as is the Atlas kill and protect high performance surface spray both sold by Aldi, the following days after using kill and protect spray to treat a surface as the can recommended ants were walking around with no effect whatsoever, Aldi should remove the Atlas brand from their shelves.

Definitely a childproof can. Thanks Jodi as I couldn’t work out how to make it spray. I’d tried pulling the tab up, but you have to push it DOWN and pull the lever at the same time. Takes two hands to use and is very messy! But at least I now know how to use it. It seems to be a very strong insecticide so be very careful where you use it. Show details
Absolute worthless rubbish. Shame on you Aldi for even selling this useless product. I left a front door open after dark while watering the front garden. As I left the entry hall light on the area had about a dozen flies buzzing in a fairly short narrow hallway. I went to get the newly purchased can of this Aldi product and sprayed the area with… Read more
NO result. I continued spraying with only a couple of flies impaired and after 5 minutes and more spraying I gave up. Score- Flies 1 Me/Aldi rubbish- a big fat Zero!

Was just curious on trying it hearing all the bad reviews and I can confirm it’s as bad as everyone’s saying, one good spray to a fly and he flys off like nothings happened, 2 sprays and he flys off again all in the span of over 2 minutes from the first direct spray. You’d have better luck catching the fly with chopsticks than atlas actually killing a fly. Show details
Wish the nozzle on can didn’t work, would then return for refund!!! Flies love the scented spray, they tell their friends & now we have the whole extended family in the apartment lapping it up!!!!! Show details
I had to take my flies to rehab after finding them laying on their backs getting stoned from sniffing from the can. I spray the flies and they seem to come back for another hit. I do not recommend this product for killing anything......... but time. Show details

useless insect killer – you are best leaving the contents in the can and throwing the can at the insects, because im sure there is nothing but propellant within, totally useless
Avoid it – This stuff is crap. Avoid it at all costs. Doesn't work. Show details
Don't bother – Useless, all the blowies are laughing . It did kill a big cockroach at 3cms, but not flies. My border Collie does a better job. The only thing in this spray's favour is it's lack of smell. I'm going back to Swat from IGA Show details
Don't waste your money – Had this up in my cupboard for years and finally gave it a try. My 1 star review is based on the following: 1. Doesn't come with a spray included. 2. Aldi don't have any refills available. 3. The Purewick refill that was available doesn't work, due to the fact the sprayer mechanism doesn't reach the refill nozzle. Junk. Show details
USELESS PRODUCT – Only buy this if you have a scrubbing brush for the insects to bath with. It certainly is the worst escuse for fly spray i have ever seen in decades. It is finally empty, unfortunate for the fly's Show details
Do not waste your money – Honestly, if I could give this product zero stars I would - how can they legally sell this product?! It is hopeless- multiple direct hits on my arch nemesis (mozzies) results in a gentle little shower for them & off they fly into the night to terrorise me even more DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY & retailers selling this product should be ashamed of themselves Show details
Terrible – Doesn't work very well at all! Even after several direct sprays, flies still fly! Show details
terrible product – I had to read other peoples to reviews to work out how to actually make it work. No instructions on product how to open it. It would have been so tempting to pull the tab up and then it would never work. So you need to push tab down whilst spraying. It smells awful and comes out in uneven bursts and runs all over your hands. No idea whether it actually works well yet but so user unfriendly will never buy it again. Show details
Horrible – Cannot get any spray out of can just running down the sides onto your hand. I didn’t keep the receipt and purchased another can which had the same problem. Can’t refund never shop at Aldi ever again. Show details

USELESS – live in a small unit wont even kill small flies or insects horrible smell too
Does not work – This product is terrible. Not sure if it made me feel worse than the flies I tried to kill with it. You definitely pay for what you get with this product. Show details
Flys love it – Have been spraying flies for an hour and they are still flying around. Does not affect them at all. Show details
wont spray out of nozzle even a drop – the 'atlas kill & protect high performance all in one' multi bug killer at aldi wont spray out of nozzle even a drop Show details
I love it – It's amazing I've sprayed a few times and any insects that wander in to the house dies. Months later still working. I live rural with lots of bugs but this is my saving grace Show details
Can works fine but – Sprayed a wasp today and died almost immediately. So for small bugs I think it’s great. Sprayed a small huntsman tonight , about four times, an hour ago, and it’s still walking around (meanwhile I’m dying from the fumes of the spray). The Oderless one from coles, forgot the name, but is better as it doesn’t smell .. I’d buy again for small bugs but probably next time will just buy coles brand Show details
Used it once and now it doesn’t work. Total waste of money – It just doesn’t spray. Used it once only. It’s a waste of money. Show details
Total crap . I think it actually gives them extra life. Iu should be called.Fly Booster – Fly booster . Ne sure to extend the life of your annoying flys
