Customer Reviews for Orthene PCO Pellets

The brown roaches finally became too many during Summer/Fall of 2015 and the Cat couldn't keep up with killing them. I went to Wal-Mart looking for something that would work. The very nice lady there told me she tried something called Orothene. I found this Orthene and ordered two full boxes, thinking that I would need to keep re-applying. I ordered too much because it only took two packets and two sprayings to make all the roaches dead. I haven't seen one roach since November 2015. The product is labeled as "not for use in homes" but I sprayed everywhere it recommended. It smelled bad (rotten) and lasted about 4-5 days, but, it did not stain anything. The Cat and Dogs did not seem to be affected by it, even when let right back into the house. I am extremely impressed!! Thanks sooo much for a great product!!

You see results the next day in unoccupied rental property. If you have an infestation in occupied rentals, the tenants see the results the next day. They are psychologically satisfied that an attempt to resolve the problem was made.

This is the same chemical that our pest control person uses but we wanted to do more frequents sprays (and better). It works GREAT! Saw results immediately. We use along with Gentrol (growth/reproduction inhibitor - also purchased through this company).

I have low income apartment housing where some people don't even try to keep things clean. I have been fighting german roaches for 10 years even using professionals with little to no success until I started using this product with Gentrol added to sprayer. Now I no longer have any problems unless someone new moves in & then their problem is resolved with one spraying. I have been using it for 3 years now every 2 months with no more german roaches. What a great product. This is the best stuff on the market "bar none".

We tried about everything we could find on the market, including two major pest control companies, and the results was no noticeable differance. We then went to a local feed store and told them we wanted the strongest treatment for roaches they had. They sold one bottle that was to kill and another that was for birth control. we got a little results from this but they kept coming back. A friend told us about your product so we ordered it. We sprayed the kitchen and bathroom. Two days later we could hardly beleive the results so we sprayed the whole house and now we are 99 percent bug free. The ones we do see are very sick. We have sprayed all our family members houses and got the same results. I would highly recomend this product if you have a bug problem.

Wasn't the Holy Grail of roach killers, as I had hoped, but it killed about 90 percent of them. Now, if only I could get rid of the other 10 percent quickly and easily! I think the gel bait would have been better.

  Expert response:
We are glad you've had success so far. We do recommend using both a roach bait gel and an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) in conjunction with residual sprays for complete roach control. Just be sure to spray low and bait high so that sprays do not interfere with baits. We sell bait and IGR together in our Roach Control Kit #1: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/roach-control-kit-p-1058.html

I've been using this product effectively for eight years. I use mainly for roach infestation and it keeps my customers happy. Tho it kills other insects I am happy that it does not require monthly treatment. If you are fairly clean and clean up the kitchen well,you may only need a treatment every 6 months or so. exellent product.

I use Orthene in combination with Gentrol IGR and Demon WP in a sprayer. One spraying per year has kept my home completely pest free for the last 4 years. The only drawback is the smell. Its pretty bad and lasts for about a week, but you can't beat the results. I will never use another product and DoMyOwnPestControl has the best prices on the internet. Thanks!!!!

Had a problem with cockroaches in my storage facility. After spraying Orthene PCO I instantly saw results the next day. I followed up 14 days later and have completely eliminated roaches. I know treat my facility once a month to keep these pest under control. Great product!

I've been performing pest control for almost 30 years. When I get a commercial kitchen with resistant German roaches, I reach for Orthene. It's one of the few remaining organophosphates on the market, and it will nail the coffin shut on pyrethroid resistant and bait resistant strains, even those showing resistance to fipronil. PLEASE NOTE: Do NOT use in homes! It stains carpet, has an AWFUL odor, and does not leave a residual on porous (wood) cabinets and surfaces. It's wonderful on plastic, stainless steel, aluminum, etc. where it can't absorb.

Awesome! I was referred to try Orthene PCO Pellets for roaches for a friend who's apartment had been exterminated few times unsuccessful killing German cockroaches , Once I treated the apartment with Orthene PCO Pellets by placing some along the the corners of the apartment and the countertops , i was amazed within two days no sign of any roaches! This product has a rotten cabbage smell eventually it would dissipate.

This product is excellent for roaches. The only issue is that it stinks. We normally spray vacant apartments with this if infested. If people are living there, we ask them to leave for the day and raise windows upon return.

We had bad cockroaches infestation at our restaurant. I've tried many many different pesticides and this is by far the best one. One application kills almost all of them. I recommend this to everyone. Residential and commercial!

DoMyOwn shows "one packet per 1.4 gallons of water." They need to reread the label. It actually says 1.4 ozs per gallon of water for a 1% solution. About the product: excellent product FOR commercial settings ONLY (not homes!) This product stains carpet!!! Also, it takes several days for maximum effectiveness (3 to 7 days before you actually see results) so mixing in a quick-knock down product like Exciter is a good idea. It does NOT DO WELL ON POROUS SURFACES (like wood). On non-porous surfaces (ceramic tile, metal, plastic, rubber) it is excellent. One last thing: this product has never shown any chemical resistance in German roaches. It used to be advertised as the "resistance breaker". If this product fails, it is an application failure.

I purchased this to treat a yard infestation of fire ants that could not be removed with other insecticides. Two applications a week apart eliminated them. There was no harm to nearby flower beds. I definitely recommend Orthene.

  Expert response:
Thank you for your review/ question. Unfortunately, Orthene PCO Pellets are not to be used to treat for bed bugs as it is not labeled for that use or for any indoor residential use. Please review our How to Get Rid of Bedbugs Guide (https://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-bed-bugs-a-449.html)

I highly recommend this product also because both work together to get the bugs gone. And yes it works quickly. It's the only product I bought that gave results like this. Buy both these products and you will be satisfied . Orthene PCO Pellets and Gentrol IRG.
