Know before you buy
Cockroaches can sometimes develop an aversion to specific food ingredients in baits over time. By rotating between different formulations, you ensure the bait remains attractive and effective, preventing the pests from ignoring the treatment.
Yes. This bait is specifically designed to control strains that have developed resistance to common sprays and other bait types. Its active ingredient, dinotefuran, works differently than many standard insecticides.
Apply the gel in small dots or thin lines in areas where you have seen cockroach activity, such as cracks, crevices, under sinks, behind appliances, and near hinges of cabinets. Avoid applying it to surfaces that are frequently cleaned or exposed to direct sunlight.
While the active ingredient is classified as reduced risk by the EPA, you should avoid applying the bait directly onto food preparation surfaces. Place the gel in hidden spots like cabinet corners or behind appliances where cockroaches travel but food does not touch.
This is a fast-acting formula, so you should begin to see a reduction in cockroach activity relatively quickly. However, the total time to eliminate an infestation depends on the severity of the problem and the thoroughness of your application.
No, the package comes complete with four tips and four plungers, providing everything you need for precise application right out of the box.
