Customers are not satisfied with the durability of the pet supplies. They mention that the bottle broke too easily, it came broken, and it breaks apart in seconds.

packaging was absurd, no cushioning around spray nozzle, so naturally it arrived broken and leaking.
smells ok, not terribly offensive better than what I expected. value is good compared to similar products. no clue if it works, can't really tell, so maybe, maybe not.my issue was the packaging. it arrived with some plastic air pockets in the box but on one side of the thing, solely there to fill a gap in the box. a box has 4 sides y'all, and there was nothing actually wrapped around the spray nozzle to protect it, so naturally the thing was banged up pretty bad since 3 other sides of the box didn't have any protection. pics of the nozzle head attached. of course the nozzle didn't work at all, and of course there was leakage too so some lost product (and I didn't get to reuse the wet smelly box.)I had a spare spray bottle to transfer the contents to, but it's not a cheap sprayer (the empty bottle cost about as much as this product itself) and it sprays so much out no matter how I tune the nozzle that just coating a small area resulted in a LOT of product being used up. going to have to find a cheaper spray bottle before I actually bother to use any more of this stuff. maybe THEN I can actually see how well it works...

1.0 out of 5 stars Without a Quality Sprayer What Good Is a Spray Product?
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2023
I rarely give a one star, but in this case, this is the SECOND sprayer that has malfunctioned from this company. My first complaint is that the sprayer does not have both a misting and stream option. For my horses, I need to quickly shoot a steady stream at their legs. It needs to be quick and accurate. This sprayer shoots only a fine mist that renders the whole reason for having it useless.
I've had this second bottle of Farnam Fly Repellent for less than a week and once again, the sprayer broke in my hand. No more, Farnam products for me, sorry!
