Great Stuff 99112809 Smart Dispenser Pestblock, Gray

Really happy with this product overall. It works exactly as expected, feels well made, and has been very reliable so far. Great value for the price and I would definitely recommend it to others

Update 12/1/2024: Previously using the foam applicator tube had been challenging and messy. Yet, I don't appear to be smart enough to operate the new "Smart Dispenser" tip. I simply can't get the Smart Dispenser tips to work properly or sometimes at all. I'll try another brand with the old tip style. Living in a rural setting means taking a hands-on approach to keep unwanted critters at bay. My proximity to neighbors with cattle and chickens, along with my encounters with various small wildlife, necessitates a strong defense against potential intruders. Fifteen years ago, I discovered a method that has proven effective: installing copper mesh secured with Great Stuff 99112809 Smart Dispenser Pestblock foam under the bottom edges of my home's James Hardy cement siding. This combination has successfully prevented entry from various pests. The Pestblock foam is particularly noteworthy for its durability and pest-deterring capabilities. However, application can be messy and requires careful preparation. I learned the hard way that protective gear such as gloves, long sleeves, and pants are non-negotiable, as the foam adheres to skin stubbornly, leading to an uncomfortable removal process. I'm currently applying the same technique to seal the bottom openings of a steel shop building, aiming to deter mice without creating an entirely impenetrable barrier. Despite the application challenges, Great Stuff Pestblock remains my go-to solution for effective pest control in a rural setting. Its performance outweighs the cleanup inconvenience, making it a valuable tool in maintaining a pest-free environment.

Works as intended. Expands a LOT. Beware that it does not stay gray! This is about a week after application. Not in dorect sunlight, it is a deep cream color.

I had a water softener removed from the garage and it lsft big holes in the wall. This stuff really works perfectly and is easy to apply. It dries as predicted and stuck perfectly to the wall where the pipes were. I think it will keep out the critters too Now to cut them, sand them and paint. Easy peasy

It really works just don't push too much material in the grooves, simple push, try it yourself first.. Headache Freeeeee It seals the grooves with roach killing foam that freezes in place.
