    Q
    Will Advion Roach Bait Gel kill the eggs that the adults are carrying as well?
    A

    Unfortunately the Advion Roach Bait Gel will not kill the eggs. However, you could use the Gentrol IGR Concentrate along with it to stop the reproductive cycle in the roaches as well. This prevents pest larvae from progressing to the pupal stage of development, so the larvae die before they become breeding adults and future infestations.

    Q
    Can you use Advion Roach Bait Gel if you see one roach, since they are attracted to this?
    We had an infestation in our old condo building, but now that we have moved to our newly built house. I saw a roach in the kitchen drawer. Can I use this since I'm worried we might have brought some roaches with us? Or is it going to attract more roaches?
    A

    Advion Roach Bait Gel is an actual food source for roaches. So if you have only seen one roach currently we would not recommend you put it out as it can attract roaches to the area. You could have brought them with you in boxes when moving. Monitor your areas, and should you see more roaches then we would recommend using the Advion at that time.

    Q
    Is it common for german roaches to become more active after using Advion Roach Bait Gel?
    My problem is quite bad . I have applied Demon WP on my windows and doors and in high traffic areas. I have sticky pads under lots of my furniture and in high traffic areas for the roaches, and I'm baiting with Advion. I'm about 3 days in with the Advion, and before I applied it, they stayed mainly in the cracks and crevices, but now they are running everywhere.
    A

    Yes, it is normal to see an increase in activity as the roaches nervous systems are being affected after consuming Advion Roach Bait Gel. Make sure to keep replacing the bait every 2-3 weeks and respraying Demon WP along cracks and crevices, around windows and doors, behind appliances, etc every 7-10 days. If you are not using an IGR, we recommend the Gentrol Point Source Packs to help stop the reproduction. 

    Please take a look at our How to Treat for Roaches Article for step by step instructions on how to do a full treatment.

    Q
    Is Advion Roach Bait Gel toxic to house spiders should the spider consume them?
    A

    The Advion Roach Bait Gel active ingredient would only work on roaches. However, if you are treating for roaches, you are also eliminating a food source for the spiders, so they may leave the area in order to find food elsewhere.

    Q
    Do cockroaches become resistant to Advion Roach Bait Gel over time?
    About a year ago I purchased this gel and it worked beautifully to get rid of the roaches I saw in my kitchen. After applying it for several weeks, I went all winter without seeing any roaches. The spring after that, I saw more roaches and applied Advion to get rid of them. However, it doesn't seem to have done anything. There are no dead roaches lying around like last year. I'm thinking the new generation of cockroaches is not affected by this gel because they grew resistant to it. What should I do if this is the case? Is there another product I can try?
    A

    Yes, roaches can become resistant to Advion Roach Bait Gel (or any other roach bait gel) over time if the same active ingredient is continuously used.  We do recommend switching up roach bait gels periodically so that this does not happen. Please take a look at our selection of roach bait gels for some other options.

    Q
    Can I store Advion Cockroach Gel in a boiler room?
    A

    Bait such as Advion Roach Bait Gel are best stored out of extreme heat to prevent the food ingredients from spoiling too quickly. You may lose some of the shelf life if the bait is kept close to high heat. In a temperate environment, we recommend using baits within one year of opening.

    Q
    Is Advion Roach Bait Gel available in liquid form?
    The german roaches in my apartment were all over this stuff when I first put it out but it dried up within a day and they wanted nothing to do with it. I saw that it was recommended that I use the bait plate stations so I did, but the bait still dried up after only a day. These roaches seem to really like the liquid bait (Hot Shot Ultra Liquid Roach Bait) that I used to put out but they have since become averse, causing me to look into other options. I'm sure a liquid version of this bait would be what I need to really knock them out, is this sort of thing available?
    A

    Advion Roach Bait is only available in the gel and arenas (bait-filled stations). If you have been using the same bait for several weeks or months, then we would suggest switching to a different bait such as Maxforce Impact or Invict Gold. Baits will dry more quickly in dry areas, on porous surfaces such as concrete or wood, and in areas near vents or other air drafts. You may also need to inspect the area again for any possible competing moisture sources near sinks, drains, pet bowls, refrigerator drip pans, dishwashers, etc. Please let us know if we can further assist you.

    Q
    I still see the same amount of roaches after 3 weeks of using Advion Roach Bait Gel. What do I do?
    A

    You want to apply the Advion Roach Bait Gel every 2 weeks (cleaning up previous bait placements). Give it some time depending on the level of activity and how long they have been present.  Baiting will take more time to transfer through the population. We also suggest applying a perimeter residual spray and an insect growth regulator (IGR) in your treatment process along with non-chemical methods. Please take a few moments to review our article and videos on How to Get Rid of Roaches.

    Q
    How long do I need to keep applying Advion Roach Bait Gel if I no longer see roaches in the area? I don't want to attract any more.
    A

    We would recommend removing Advion Roach Bait Gel if you no longer have an issue since it does contain food grade materials that are meant to attract roaches. The product only needs to be used if there are roaches present. We would recommend waiting 30 days before removing the product once you have stopped seeing activity.

    Q
    Will Advion Roach Bait Gel kill a second infestation of baby roaches?
    My apartment was heavily infested. I applied Advion and got rid of them for three months, but now I have seen three baby roaches crawling within the past 3 days, and I'm worried. If I bait again, will an infestation be prevented?
    A

    Advion Roach Bait Gel can certainly help at the beginning of an infestation. If you are seeing a new population, then there are most likely more in the wall void areas that you are not seeing as well.  We would recommend using more than one product so that you are sure that you are getting all the areas that could be affected, such as the products that come in our Roach Control Kits. These provide a bait, insecticide, and an IGR (Insect Growth Regulator). Generally, you need all three to get a roach problem not only under control, but eliminated as well. Please see our Roach Treatment Guide for more information.

    Q
    I bought the Advion Roach Bait Gel and I put it out, but a month later the cockroaches are back. Is there anything else I can use for roaches?
    A

    We do recommend that you apply the Advion Roach Bait Gel every couple of weeks (after cleaning up previous bait placements). Baiting is going to take some time. We also recommend that you apply a perimeter spray to the cracks and crevices and growth regulation as well. Please take a few moments to review our treatment article, How to Get Rid of Roaches for additional treatment tips.

  • Asked by Liry from Phoenix

    Q
    How soon after my apartment was fogged for roaches can I apply Advion Roach Bait Gel?
    I just recently had someone come out and fog my apartment. I ordered the gel bait as a back up. I was wondering if I could use the gel bait now, or if i should wait. I would hate for the gel to counteract with the treatment but I also am disgusted with seeing so many roaches. Its been an on going problem and I just want to get rid of them.
    A

    We would would recommend contacting the company that did the fogging to find out the residual of the fogger they used. Foggers generally are used as a flushing treatment and do not leave a long residual. Advion Roach Bait Gel is one of the best roach baits to use but if you have been dealing with roaches for an extended period of time, we recommend using on our Roach Control Kits. Roaches are a persistent pest and require multiple treatments using a combination of products in order to be completely eradicated. Please see our Roach Control Guide for step by step instructions on how to do a full treatment.
