Customer Reviews for Gentrol Point Source

I have pets and wanted to get rid of pests safely. I have been using this product for years and I can say unequivocally that Gentrol Point Source for roaches is the best pest eliminator ever. I don't usually have roaches but during the summer the critters will come in when my windows are open. Once I did have a mild infestation and Gentrol got rid of them all. No sprays, no poisons, no tubes of whatever! This product will rid your place of unwanted roaches AND save you money at the same time. It's the only product I will ever use.

  Expert response:
Please note that while Gentrol is a great product, it does not kill current populations of roaches. It works to stop immature roaches from reaching maturity which will help break a roach cycle. Please refer to our Roach Treatment Guide to learn how to implement a successful roach control program: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-roaches-a-458.html

I only had a few and my son-in-law told me about this product and told me to use bait with it. Within a week I didn't have anymore at all. You just have to remember to use bait to kill them.

This stuff is wonderful. Within a few weeks there are less roaches and with some roach bait they are gone within a few months. I have told my friends about this and they are now using it also.

this product is great😃 . I had a leak and my cabinet had water damage I couldn't control the roaches with other products on the market. Gentrol is discreet and no harm to my pet or my family members. The first day I put them around the next morning I saw dead roaches on the floor after about a month I have seen any 😃 ! I have recommended it to anyone who has a roach situation !

German roaches have an unbelievable weapon: their ability to reproduce faster than you can kill them. Gentrol Point Source effectively eliminates their reproductive ability and works for well over 60 days. I'll place these 6 to 8 feet apart in heavily infested areas for fast control. Please note: I have found hydroprene (Gentrol) products to be superior to nylar for control of German roaches. I've used BOTTLES of nylar products, and it didn't give me the results as a few stations of Gentrol Point Source did. I'm not hating on nylar: I use it for fleas with great results. On German roaches though, hydroprene is king!

The Gentrol Point Source delivers very good results at a very reasonable price. Prior to finding this product, I wasted lots of money on products that just did not work and it was extremely frustrating for me and my husband to deal with those ugly roaches. I have been very pleased with this product. This is our second order and I plan to order in the future. It's definitely money well spent!

Gentrol Point Source worked better than any type of pest control we've tried! We've battled cockroaches in our new home for years. In about a month or so, and including a sterilization tool purchased here, we rarely even see a stray and when we do, it doesn't look very well. The best product we've found!

My mom lives in an old apartment in NY and she had a very bad roach problem. I put Gentrol in every room, also in cabinets and under the sink. I did not put poison baits because I try my best to be humane. Also made sure not to leave any garbage or dirty dishes out. It took about half a year but no more roaches. They are gone, I have not seen any and it was done in a humane way.

Used at my mother's house. She had a bad roach problem that spraying would not sure alone. I tried this and within 2 weeks she's not seeing any. I love DoMyOwn and appreciate the products the offer. They actually work!

Between the roach bait and this product I was able to rid my house of the beginnings of an infestation before it got out of hand. Thank you for this product and this sight that allowed me to order it. It was just as described and shipping was super fast

I use these for an off label purpose. I use them to combat fleas. Between these and Capstar, I eliminated our flea population. I continue to use these for peace of mind.

I bought this product because of an infested second-hand microwave that led to a roach problem at my place. Even if you kill the adults, they would still hatch from the eggs. I was still seeing baby roaches with baiting. Failing to locate the eggs, I placed Gentrol Point Source where I guessed they were coming from. Two weeks later, I'm not seeing a roach, adult or baby. It really works! The product was easy to place, I only wish it was easy to tell whether I have broken the capsule correctly.

I bought this a while back when I bought a trailer infested with roaches, this in combination with invict gold, boric acid, and spraying around the perimeter completely eliminated a roach infestations. After about a month they were gone and it was such a relief.

Have been using Gentrol products in my beach condo for a little over a yr and have not seen any activity of those pesky pests. I replace point source disks every 3 months as recommended in combination with bait. It's all good.

While I originally purchased Gentrol in a battle against roaches, a pleasant side effect I noticed is that the wool moths and fruit flies all diminished in number in the areas where the Gentrol was placed. Nice!

I have dog grandchildren who I can't really use sprays or other roach products. I had a leak and was infested with roaches. I was given this product to try by a friend this has been a life saver. I have no roaches and continue to use this.

Gentrol has helped immensely in getting rid of roaches! We have used bait, dust and sprayed and all of it worked great for a little while. We even rotated products and they would still come back after awhile. We have been fighting the little pests for about a year. Now I rarely see them dead or alive.

I live in an apartment. Due to secondhand furniture from a thrift store,, we developed a German roach problem. These things multiply fast and eat everything. The nymphs don't look like roaches, so I didnt know what we were dealing with until it was too late. The apartment complex sent their exterminator to put down gel. I did my own research online and saw that these vermin need a multiple pronged approach to defeat them. I threw or stored away books, paper, cardboard boxes and cleaned off every drop of water in the sinks and showers and made sure to clean up every crumb (so there's no competition for the gel). The gel killed 99% of the roaches after 4 weeks, however, that 1% made me worry. So I purchased the sticky traps for monitoring and the gentrol point source for the birth control plus the exterminator put out more gel after 4 weeks. The gentrol point source I purchased was "dry," which made me worry about the effectiveness. So I called the customer service line and explained the situation. They took care of it and I got a new package from the manufacturer. Getting back to the vermin- after 4 weeks, the exterminator did a second visit and when he saw the gentrol point source, he asked me where I got it because they used it too (very mainstream exterminator company). He showed me how to use it and where to put it. I have seen 2 dark nymphs get stuck on the sticky traps but no new egg droppings, or droppings. Its been 2 weeks, and its been good so far, I give credit to the "attack on all sides" approach this site recommended.

I've been living in a rent-stabilized apartment and the landlord does not care about it. For the first six months, I was fighting the roaches with his provided exterminator. Their sprays did nothing. I kept my garbage tied up and dishes clear of the sink. I kept pantry items in bins and made sure my bathroom was as dry as possible. Still, they were there. I live in an apartment building and I grew up having roaches. I thought I'd always have them because of where I lived- in urban areas, in close contact with others, in cities. I came across this website, and thought- why not? I used gentrol (bait and GP source) and within 2.5 weeks I saw roaches with bent legs, and 1 week later I stopped seeing them completely. It's been 9 months and counting since I've seen a roach in my apartment. My relief is immeasurable. Also, the building exterminator saw what I was using and he said "oh yeah, gentrol. That's the best there is." I should note that once every 6 months, I spray the Ortho roach spray around the perimeter of my apartment for good measure. Ortho did not work on its own the first 6 months I used it. I needed population control and this product did the trick (and keeps doing it!).

Have used this for about 2 years in my own home and my Apts. It is a really effective product. I live in the South on the coast,, bugs are a constant Fact of life. I find some dead every day but no new babies. So the bugs are sooners... sooner come stay at your house than live outside. If I find bugs dead in the middle of floor time to re do my line of defense. If all the items I use Are working they are dead behind the furniture not in front. I get all my kill program from doyourown.com. This disk is apart of that ongoing !No bugs at my hse. Just dead ones.

If you really have problems getting rid of German roaches this is the big game changer because they stop having children. And This Thing Really Works. I don't see any more of those roach eggs which look like peanut shells laying around. I am so thankful for this product cuz it really is helpful.
