I have this bottle too. I bought it for all the reasons you mentioned and it works just fine. Not to down it but I also have a big garden one now because I like to have enough water for my frog too. Either way yes its a lot better than sitting there with a spray bottle. My wrists are bad enough as it is. I have stopped spraying as much because I've heard its okay, but good to keep around
. I do use my big sprayer to spray Kritter Keepers but it does not take much like you said. A quick 1 second pass gets the whole thing dripping. And a little extra mist never hurt anyone. Thanks Sarah (hope you don't mind me blabbing away on your review)
