Advion Cockroach Gel should kill cockroaches DEAD! Not fast acting like RAID but man it decimates them within 30-40 hours. We live in FL and have battled these German invaders for nearly a yr - originally brought in when we let our adult kids move back in. They unknowingly were the trojan horse.
Prior to using this it was a constant battle of mixed tactics - permethrin in pump sprayer, alternating with Demon WP coupled with an IGR, bug bombs. Wife always wanting IMMEDIATE satisfaction so her tool of choice was a can of RAID.
Long story short - winning battles but not the war. Frustrated, one night I went down a long u-toob rabbit hole and started research active ingredients of RAID - imiprothrin and cypermethrin. As typical with u-toob rabbit holes a tangent video discussed on indoxacarb - active ingredient in this product.
Additional research led to me go shopping and found it here. Bought it and followed instructions - was skeptical as only 4 little tubes.
Let me tell you - this stuff WORKS!! Initial assault we found that they take to the bait immediately. It begins working as soon as you put it out. The following morning they were all over the kitchen flow slow, feeble and wandering in circles. They say it may take up to 20 days for these nasties to transfer the insecticide around the harborage and eliminate the majority. With just one treatment it took us a week of daily cleaning up the dead roaches and we completely reclaimed both our kitchen and our pantry.
Technically, indoxacarb has been shown to have “tertiary” level effects. This means that if one roach eats the bait, it spreads it to other roaches it comes into contact with. These roaches then spread it to another group of roaches in hiding i.e. those who never come into contact with the primary roach. As roaches are cannibalistic they eat the roach that died from indoxacarb so this insecticide is extremely effective at controlling gregarious or social insects as they feed on the dead then they die.
Low toxicity to pets, hidden from kids so safe application. We put it under counter tops, in pantry where shelving was fastened to the wall, behind the sink, in the corner by dog water bowl, on top of hinges for cupboards and on rails for drawers. Following the instructions we only used 1.5 tubes; keeping the remainder for maintenance.
Again, absolutely devasted these invaders. Now that they have been eliminated I went thru and caulked up all cracks and crevices to prevent future hiding areas. Resumed monthly maintenance spraying as a precaution. It is such a wonderful relief to walk into kitchen at night for glass of water and not seeing skittering roaches when you turn on the lite. Cannot recommend this strongly enough. Hope this helps and good luck with your assault :)
