When using the Advion Roach Bait Gel you could use a Bait Plate Station we sell. These are low profile and economic. The stations keep sticky gels and granular baits in a contained space that is off countertops and other surfaces, but allows access to the bait for roaches. Be sure to remove the perforated tab when using Bait Plate Stations for roach control so that larger roaches have enough space to access the bait. Keep in mind that roaches will generally accept bait best when it is applied directly to cracks and crevices, rather than in a station.
It is possible for a bird to be harmed after ingesting the Advion Roach Bait Gel as they can be pretty sensitive to chemicals.

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.

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.
