    Q
    Will my birds get sick if they eat the roaches that die from Advion Roach Bait Gel?
    I have a lot of birds (cockatiels). The room is infested with roaches.
    A

    Advion Roach Bait gel should be safe to use around any pet as long as you keep the application out of reach of the pet. Since you are applying a gel and not a spray, there is nothing released into the air where sensitive animals such as birds could run into respiratory issues. That being said, you should always defer to your veterinarian's advice. We do not have any other written safety information other than the information available on the product label and the MSDS. We do not offer product guarantees, but these are the same products used by professionals, and if you use them as part of your roach control plan you will have the same results as a professional. I have included a link below for you to learn what is needed for a complete Roach Control Program.

    Q
    Should I remove old Advion bait gel before applying fresh gel? What is the best way to remove it?
    The old bit is at least six months old and is clearly not working anymore as I have roaches running around my kitchen and bathroom!
    A
    Old Advion Roach Bait Gel can be removed by scraping it up and then warm soap and water on the surfaces for any left over.  It can take time to completely eliminate an infestation and fresh bait should be applied as needed and replaced when it starts to look black or too dusty/dirty.  Please take a moment to also read over our article here on how to eliminate them.

    Q

    Q
    Red Label vs. Blue Label
    I have never before purchased this product but heard amazing reviews about it. In my research, there is a harsh review claiming your product Advion Cockroach Gel Bait is ineffective since switching company's. It is a red label (old version) vs. blue label (new version). Can you tell me what the changes were to the product? Why would some claim the old version works and the new version doesn't. I really need a reliable product and have no money to waste on purchasing several products. Can you help with this question? My questions are in respect of your company. Thank you.
    A
    Advion Roach Bait Gel was previously packaged in red by the previous manufacturer. The product was purchased by Syngenta and they began to package it in blue/green. The product is the same and has the same formulation and effectiveness. Nothing has changed to the product itself only the packaging material. Please let us know if you need anything else.

    Q
    The ants are ignoring the Advion Roach Bait Gel traps, what can be done?
    A
    Advion Roach Bait Gel is not labeled to eradicate ants. We do carry Advion Ant Bait Gel that will atrract the listed ants on the label that are currently attracted to a sweet-feeding bait. If they are foraging for a protein source, we highly recommend applying the Advance 375A granules in bait plate stations.

    Q
    What is Advion Roach Bait Gel shelf life?
    A

    Advion Roach Bait Gel has a one year shelf life once the tube has actually been opened. If the tubes you have have not been opened, they should be good for up to 5 years from manufactured date. If the gel is hard, then it is likely it is out of date. If it has been kept in a room temperature room, it is fine.

    Q
    Please help me out..
    I've lived in my apartment for 8 years and never seen a cockroach here until yesterday I found 1 dead cockroach next to my sliding door (that opens up to balcony). Not sure if this roach just got in from outside. Should I use this bait or just wait to see if I find more (really hoping not). I don't want to attract more roaches with this bait if it was just that one.
    A
    Since you have only seen one and it was right inside the door, it is a strong possiblity that it did come in from outside. We would recommend to put up a barrier. You can use Phantom aerosol. Apply this product indoors and out along cracks, crevices and entry points.

    Q
    What do I use to screw the top off the Advion gel bait tube?
    The tip is difficult to take off.
    A
    We would recommend using a small pair of pliers if you are having difficulty getting the tip off of the Advion Roach Bait gel. It should just twist off and on once you get it off the first time. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

    Q
    Will Advion Roach Bait Gel also kill crickets?
    A

    Advion Roach Bait Gel will not kill crickets as it is only labeled for roaches. The most effective means of controlling crickets is by applying baits such as InTice or Niban. These products will kill crickets and will keep more from coming into the treated areas. For more information on eliminating crickets, please check out our Cricket Control Article.

    Q
    Should roaches dead from Advion be left around kitchen or can I clean them up?
    I thought the affected roaches would take the gel back to their nest and die, then the dead roaches would be ingested by other roaches and die. But, I see the roaches dying in my kitchen. What should I expect. Heavy infestation but not many have died yet after 2 days.
    A
    Older or unhealthy roaches can be affected much faster than younger/healthier roaches. You can go ahead and clean uyp dead roaches that are out in the open. With a heavy infestation, you can expect several weeks before you see full resulst.

    Q
    Which roach gel is better Advion or Maxforce FC by Bayer?
    I tried Advion its been good but wonder if Maxforce FC is better. I've got a bad infestation.
    A
    Advion Roach Bait Gel and the Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel by Bayer are all great professional roach bait gels. They contain different active ingredients. There is no set guideline on how often you should rotate the baits. A lot of professionals will use the same bait as long as they are seeing good results. When the results start to falter, they will then switch to a new material with a different active ingredient. We also recommend that you treat the home with an insecticide and insect growth regulator (IGR). I have included some great articles below that will help guide you with the treatment.

  • Asked by Jk from New York, Ny
    01/25/2014
    Q
    Should I apply Advion ?
    I got a mild infestation (2-4 roaches seen a day) that I treated with boric acid. After a week a stopped seeing roaches (german). I am thinking, as a preventive measure (to complement boric acid) to apply Advion on some strategic locations at my kitchen. Is that my assumption correct ? or the fact that I don't see any more of this animals means that they've gone for good ?
    A
    Yes, I would recommend using the Advion Gel Bait in areas where roaches tend to congregate or hide. Use Advion Roach Bait Gel indoors as a crack and crevice treatment to control even the toughest of infestations. Advion cockroach gel should be applied to areas frequented by cockroaches such as between different elements of construction, between equipment and floors, openings leading into voids and hollow spaces in floors, walls, ceilings, equipment legs and bases, around plumbing pipes, doors and windows, and behind and under appliances, cabinets, sinks, closets, and any other equipment that cockroaches are typically known to hide. Advion cockroach bait gel is excellent for German roaches as they are the most common indoor infesting roach. Advion roach bait gel should be used in conjunction with Insect Growth Regulators, such as Gentrol Point Source Stations, for even more complete control of all life stages of cockroaches. For light to moderate infestations of cockroaches, apply 1-3 spots of Advion cockroach gel bait per 10 linear feet. Each spot of Advion gel bait should equal about 0.5 grams (approx. 1/4” diameter)
