One of our Roach Control Kits would be recommended for roach control. These professional kits includes non-staining, low odor concentrated insecticide for spraying the outside perimeter of the home and inside underneath appliances, behind cabinets, under toilets and sinks, etc. You'll also get Roach Bait Gel to help get rid of those roaches that like to hide. Baits can be applied up high in the kitchen in the corner of cabinets and in cracks and crevices in kitchens and bathrooms. The bait contains a slow-acting poison that attracts and kills feeding roaches, who also spread the bait to other roaches by contact or by sharing food. Finally, an Insect Growth Regulator is offered which will stop roaches from laying eggs, helping to halt the infestation. The combination of an IGR with roach bait is a highly effective roach control strategy that is widely used by pest control professionals. The insecticide must be applied with a 1 gallon pump sprayer.

The application rate of Maxforce FC Magnum will vary depending upon the level of infestation and species to be controlled. Generally, Each 33 g tube yields approximately 33 bait placements and treats 11 to 44 square yards, depending on infestation.
Standard Application Rates
*0.75 g per square yard €“ maintenance programs for continuous control (will not provide fast control of existing infestations)
*Up to 1.5 g per square yard €“ light to moderate infestations, retreatments
*Up to 3.0 g per square yard €“ clean out of severe or heavy infestations
*1-2 g per square yard €“ large cockroaches such as American, Smoky-Brown, or Oriental
**0.1 g equals approx. ¼ in. diameter spot; 1.0 g equals approx. dime-sized spot.
Apply gel as round spots or thin beads into cracks and crevices or as a spot treatment. Place bait close to cockroach harborages, foraging and feeding areas such as corners and cracks and crevices. Numerous smaller bait placements provide faster control than fewer larger placements. In cases of severe infestation and areas with excessive clutter or alternative food sources that cannot be eliminated, use the higher rate of application.
Maxforce FC Magnum is a professional grade product and will not be available in a local store. We do offer free shipping and no tax to TN though.
We advise using soap and water to remove any excess Maxforce FC Magnum gel bait in the area. Old bait can sometime be removed easily with a paper towel and/or a paint scraper or similar tool. Be sure that you do not use any strong cleaning agents in areas where you plan to apply bait since the lingering odors or residues from these products can make bait less attractive to the roaches.
