Control Methods

For indoor treatment, this treatment is most of the time treated against German cockroaches because they live in your home. We recommend that you use gels (MAXFORCE PRO ROACH KILLER BAIT GEL , MAXFORCE ROACH GEL, AVERT COCKROACH BAIT GEL, MAXFORCE FC MAGNUM ROACH BAIT ,ADVION ROACH BAIT GEL), baits (ADVION ROACH BAIT ARENA , MAXFORCE ROACH BAIT STATIONS , MAXFORCE BAIT GRANULAR), and aerosol (CB AIR DEVIL HPX , GENTROL AEROSOL (IGR), WHIT ORTHENE AEROSOL , ALPINE AEROSOL). However you can also use liquid sprays (ARCHER IGR, DEMON WP , SUSPEND SC, CYNOFF WP, CYPER WP). You will apply the gel on the corners of the kitchen, in the cracks of appliances (refrigerators, microwaves, stove fans, etc.), under counters, cabinets, and sinks, and other small openings where cockroaches can enter.� Place the bait station in places where they can hide. Place the stations adjacent to walls and corners, under appliances. You can place the granular insect bait inside the bait tray (BAIT TRAY) and place them where cockroaches are commonly seen. You can even hang them onto walls if you need to. Do not place a bait in places where it has been sprayed with a pesticide and do not spray on them. Do not place them where children and pets can reach. Before applying gels and baits, clean the surrounding areas first to get better results. Using aerosol or liquid spray, apply around door and window frames and walls, behind furniture, etc.
