  • Asked by Alvina from Oakland, Ca
    10/11/2015
    Q
    Can I still cook and eat while baits such as Advion Roach Bait Gel are set?
    If I place bait in strategic areas, is it still safe for me to cook food and eat in those areas or keep near plates, dried foods, etc?
    A

    When used as directed it is safe to use Advion Roach Bait Gel in areas that you would cook and eat as it should not contact food prep surfaces or dishes/utensils. We have a great video here that shows where to apply the bait. You can see the video by clicking on the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kSzVucMtA0

  • Asked by Christie from Justin
    06/22/2016
    Q
    Will the Advion Roach Bait Gelt or killed bug harm a bird such as a small parrot if ingested?
    I have a small parrot who puts anything and everything in his mouth. If he gets a roach that has took the bait and shows signs of death will it harm him?
    A

    It is possible for a bird to be harmed after ingesting the Advion Roach Bait Gel as they can be pretty sensitive to chemicals.  We would recommend only applying in areas that the bird does not have access to.  We have a great video here that shows where to apply the bait. You can see the video by clicking here.  In order for the bird to be harmed from eating a killed or dying roach from the bait, they would generally have to eat a large amount but we would recommend checking with your vet to be sure as birds can be more sensitive then other animals.

    Q
    Did I receive the wrong item of Advion roach bait?
    I received my order of Advion cockroach gel bait. I was under the impression that I'd receive the DuPont red and black label. What I received is Syngenta Advion Blue and Green labeled cockroach gel bait. Is there a difference between Advion cockroach gel baits, be it Syngenta or DuPont?
    A
    You are correct in that you received Advion Roach Bait Gel that is blue and green. The labeling has changed and you have received the correct product. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

  • Asked by Anne from Nyc, Ny
    06/17/2015
    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.

  • Asked by Lourene from Keaau Hawaii
    07/10/2014
    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
    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.

  • Asked by Frank from Pa
    09/14/2016
    Q
    How close is too close to apply residual roach spray near roach baits?
    Early on in my battle against the German roach I was baiting right next to where I applied Demon Max spray, which is bad, as I now know.
    A

    You really should not apply your roach bait gel in the same areas where you are spraying, as the spray can contaminate the bait.  The general rule of thumb is to "spray low and bait high."  You will spray along baseboards, in cracks and crevices, underneath appliances, and areas where plumbing meets the wall.  Bait should be applied mainly in locations where you typically would not want to spray anyway, such as in cabinets and drawers and underneath countertops.

  • Asked by Sylvester
    06/30/2016
    Q
    How long do I leave Advion Roach Bait Gel trap out?
    A

    When you are using Advion Roach Bait Gel, you are placing 3 to 5 spots of ADVION cockroach gel bait per 10 linear feet for heavy infestations. It is recommended that you wipe up the bait after 2 weeks and re-apply it so that the roaches have fresh bait to consume. Once you have gotten rid of the infestation, the bait can be replaced every 3 months or when bait is gone.

    Q
    What happens if you squeeze out the Advion Roach Bait Gel in a line not in dollops/drops?
    I did this without reading the directions...whoops. Will this make it ineffective?
    A

    If you squeeze the Advion Roach Bait Gel out in a line instead of small dabs, we recommend to take the bait up and start all over. Roaches are less likely to be attracted to the bait in long lines rather than dabs which could be interepreted to them as food crumbs.
