    Q
    Is Avert Dry Flowable Cockroach Bait just a bait product or does it kill the roaches?
    A
    Avert Dry Flowable Cockroach Bait is both a roach bait product and an insecticide. Avert Dry Flowable Cockroach Bait contains food based ingredients to attract the roaches and entice them to feed. It also contains the active ingredient, Abamectin, which will kill the roach that consumes the bait and other roaches that come into contact with the roach that consumed the bait.

    Q
    Our cat ingested a small amount of this that had fallen on the floor when our exterminator was here.
    It was being put behind our electrical outlets. What toxic symptoms should we look for? Our vet wasn't very helpful and didn't know what dangerous chemicals the product contains.
    A
    The great news it that your cat should be fine if it only ate a small anount of Avert Dry Flowable Cockroach Bait. The residual and poisons in the products are only enough to kill something the size of a roach. A pet would need to eat large amounts of the bait directly to have an effect from the bait.

    Q
    Can you mix Avert powder with Gentrol Concentrate together?
    A
    No. Avert Dry Flowable cockroach bait cannot be mixed with Gentrol IGR concentrate. These two products have two very different formulations and they are not made to be mixed together. To make the application easier for your self you can choose to use Gentrol Point Source instead of the concentrate. Using Gentrol Point Source is as simple as squeezing the raised end of the plastic, adhesive-back device, no mixing or spraying required. This releases Gentrol IGR onto a filter paper. From there, it moves up to 75 square feet, that way roaches never need to come in contact with the device.

    Q
    Should I clean up or Leave applications of Avert Dry Flowable Cockroach Bait?
    Ny husband placed a small amount behind fridge near baseboard and benind and sove on floor. Also he took the cardboard of the back of the fridge and placed some near the fridge motor. He also placed some on the back of rhe stove where there are some vents. Do we clean this up or do we just leave it over time. Its been there for about 3 weeks and no sign of roaches again. Thanks for your help?
    A

    It is not necessary to clean up the areas where the Avert Dry Flowable Cockroach Bait was applied. This will provide a long time residual for the roaches so that they do not come back. You can remove the product and re-apply as necessary as well.

    Q
    Can I put Avert in the motor compartment of the refrigerator?
    I can't figure out what I can safely put in there to keep roaches out. We just got a new fridge after they took up residence in our old one and I want to make sure they don't move in!

    Q
    Can Avert dry flowable be use together with Invict gold bait or will they cancel each other out?
    A
    Yes you can use both products together and they will not change the effectiveness of either. Both are baits so they are both items that the roaches will use as a food source. You would not want to use a bait where you had already placed an insecticide spray.
