Customer Reviews for Gentrol IGR Concentrate

I sprayed this down by itself a few days before performing my German Roach Normandy beach mission and I felt like I was on a secret mission to disrupt the worldwide roach population. This Gentrol with MaxForce FC Magnum bait and some Demon WP completely decimated a 20 year German roach problem in South Texas. All three totally killed every bug in the house, haven't seen or heard a peep for over two weeks and for the first time ever, I can say that they are gone with absolute certainty. Still got a spray bottle left in reserve just in case they ever try a counterattack. Thanks for an amazing product and very fast shipping.

A few years back our Queens, NY apartment became infested with bed bugs. The landlord called an exterminator, who treated our apartment about four times. One of the exterminators (then sent a different one each time) told me that the bug spray mix wasn't really meant to get rid of bed bugs permanently, just put them into temporary hiding. After the four or so treatments, we still had the bedbugs. I decided on this product after reading the literature that was available then. It turned out to work. After one treatment of this, the bed bugs slowed down, and after two they disappeared. I think I did this for a total of three times, and we never saw the bugs again. I had purchased the whole box and had most of it left after treating my apartment three times. Needless to say, the entire box of the Gentrol IGR cost less than a single visit from a NYC exterminator. As an added benefit, Gentrol IGR also fubars roaches. I now use it on my own commercial property for roach control, and for me, it is more effective (by killing the bugs and by cost) than hiring the bug company.

This stuff works! I'm soooo glad to have found your website and to have found something that actually works immediately. I just moved into an apartment the 1st of this month where it unfortunately had roaches. I couldn't sleep when I noticed the apartment had them; I'd never lived with these ungodly creatures before. I purchased this product along with the Drione and they did the trick! I think my landlord is amazed but he won't let on. He's been paying an exterminator to visit twice a month. This stuff works, the exterminator is a waste of his money. It's been three weeks and I'm more than happy to say that I can rest peacefully.

I used this stuff to get rid of bedbugs -- it's the only thing that really worked because it's a genetic disruptor and breaks their life cycle. It had the added bonus of breaking the life cycle of every other insect also -- so I haven't seen a roach or a fly ever since I used it. What an awesome product.

A very good product as it does start the process of eliminating these pest. I had researched the different types of chemicals for these bugs and found GENTROL to be the answer. Dump one bottle in a typical pump garden sprayer and add a gallon of water, I use a old gallon milk jug and bingo, start spraying your headboards and all wood products and soak the area between the base boards and carpet. You may still after a while still see a few but this stops them from pro creating. Maybe I can use this on my 13 yr old daughter?... just kidding... Delivery was very fast and a great place to do business with.

The main reason I purchased this product was to use it along with other chemicals when I'm killing bedbugs. The major pest control company I work for won't give it to me for my use, and as it has a growth inhibitor in it which is important if you miss any eggs when you are treating and steaming the inhibitor won't let the nymphs shed their skin to get to the next stage. Thus you eliminate them a lot faster. I bought it with my money to better serve my customers. It works and is well worth the price.

Most effective in preventing the insects from maturing and multiplying. I mix it with the other pesticide I am using.

I've been battling bed bugs in a ten unit building. It wasn't until I added Genetrol to my mix that I saw a significant drop in bed bug sightings.

My house became infested with roaches, after an undetected water leak created the perfect breeding grounds for them under the kitchen. I spent several hundred dollars on a 'professional' exterminator, and he didn't put a dent in the little buggers. Then, I bought Gentrol and Demon WP, and they worked great!!! And the Gentrol is still working, months later. The few bugs we do see, are 'crippled, crazy and malformed'.

Got it for bed bugs with Demand CS and the Gentrol IGR. Had a pretty good infestation in my old apartment, well over 50 bugs and uncountable eggs. Just so happened that I was moving anyway so I thought my problems were solved if I cleaned everything well and brushed everything down with an over the counter deltamethrin solution before the move; not the case. I found about 15 bugs about a week after my move the first time I checked my mattress and bed springs. After first use of the sprays (I tank mixed them all together) I found about 8 bugs 2 weeks later, 2 more weeks down to two, now have not found any, checking about three times for over a month. Guess it works :)

Ordered 1oz of Gentrol IGR Concentrate to mix with spray pesticide. Received 30 July 2011 and yesterday, 12 August 2011 my room mates and I started to notice full, unhatched egg pills laying around- three of them to be exact. This is highly abnormal as German cockroaches carry the egg until it is ready to hatch, then hide it. These full, dead eggs were just laying around in the open. The roaches had discarded them! It seems we're well on our way to being pest free in our home FINALLY!

Technically, I could not test Gentrol completely (since it works sort of in a different way than poisons), but I believe in the product. Fourth time I ordered from Domyownpestcontrol.com and the service is wonderful. With my German roach problem, I ordered Demon WP, Maxforce Magnum, and Gentrol. Maxforce Magnum seemed to work the best. In 2 days after applying the bait, approximately 85% were dead. Amazing results.

I used this to treat both a roach and bedbug infestation. Ugh. Not sure which is worse. I bought a pint of Suspend insectidide and a pint of Gentrol. Mixed them together in a sprayer. Bamm! No more roaches or bedbugs after about the 3rd treatment. The key to fighting bedbugs is to spray every crack and crevice on your furniture. The sprayer wand allows you to sprat down between all the cushions and between the seat and the back on your sofa. It is a must to do this because this is where they hide out. Hit em where they live. This stuff wirks great abd I recommend it to anyone who has toaches, bedbugs or fleas.

If you have struggled to get rid of bedbugs this product is a must. I wash the sheets and clean the rooms, Spray Gentrol IGR once a week my problem is all but gone. I'm going to continue to use because I'm not sure where I got the bedbugs from. I don't want them coming back!!!!! Warning this does not kill them but is a growth regulator so it keeps them from reproducing.

This really works and you can tell by observing a treated roach. It's body is deformed (it's wings are sort of sticking out from it's body). This seems to be the result of altered reproductive organs. They don't seem to die on the spot but the populaztion decreases very quickly. I use this with a conventional roach spray that kills on contact and the results are very satisfactory. Be sure to follow the directions and redo the process in two weeks because if you don't, the roaches that you may have missed WILL reproduce (by the thousands) and you will have defeated your purpose.

I use this stuff all day everyday at work in combination with either Cy-Kick CS or Phantom. Great combination to deal with most household pests (roaches and what such), and either of those combinations I would highly recommend for battling bedbugs.

Used with Cy-Kick CS and had amazing results. We had multiple breeds of cockroaches living throughout our house and this combination did the trick. We did a crack/crevice application to get under molding and back behind and in-between cabinets and then used a regular spray application to get the normal areas of the house.

I had a rather nasty infestation of German cockroaches in a rental property, and Gentrol, along with Demon-WP, Exponent to help the Demon-WP against resistant roaches, and Phantom to give long term protection against reinfestation, and that was the END of the roach problems inside of two weeks.

This stuff is easy to use if you have adults it will sterilize them and kill the nymphs. I like that it can be mixed with an adulticide.

This stuff is great. I got a second bottle for a maintenance spray. Just to be safe. Cant beat this igr. Customer service is great as well. The bottle leaked out during shipping and they sent me another bottle quickly. Will do business with again for sure.

We have used this for roaches, bed bugs, pantry insects (Indian meal moth, etc.) and carpet beetles. This has always been a part of our solutions. Really helps with very and chemical resistant insect populations.

Our home unfortunately became infested due to purchases from yard sales, flea markets and other such places. Unaware of the hazards, boxes were brought in and the damage done. I have recently purchased this product and a pesticide to go along with. Highly impressed and will continue to use this product as a precautionary measure.

This stuff really works!! I just ordered a second bottle. I bought a place little over a month ago and didn't have it inspected before purchase. The day I moved in I realized it had a bad German cockroach infestation. I could flip on the kitchen light at night and see HUNDREDS of filthy roaches on my counter tops!!! GROSS!! I have treated the house with Gentrol ONE TIME and laid out boric acid laced "goodies" every night. Now when I flip on the kitchen light at night I am only seeing 3-4 roaches instead of hundreds. I will reapply once my second bottle gets here and update my review after I see the results. Also I am very chemical sensitive and do not take using poisons in my home environment lightly. I was very nervous about using this when i first applied it. I have had no reactions to Gentrol whatsoever YaY!!

Some reviewers are confused. IGRs are not pesticides. They do not kill bugs directly. Instead, they keep the bugs from maturing properly and reproducing. (Some of those immature bugs will die from their deformities, but that's not the point.) When used in conjunction with other methods, IGRs work quite well. (The other methods vary according to the insect you're targeting, but they include appropriate pesticides, caulking up any cracks in the home, and removing clutter from outside and inside.)

I purchased some of this to add to my normal spray. It seems to be working. The adult bed bugs may have all been killed by the spray, not sure about that. I was having trouble with more showing up before. Now they seem to be gone. Awesome!

gentrol has never failed me whether worms and moths in the dog food or holding down cockroach population until I get them under control with a pesticide I used gentrol as a pest control operator and it still works on bedbugs to stop their breeding
