Asked by Thom from Jacksonville, Fl08/13/2011QHow often do I need to treat for roaches?
I thought i had them all under control (didn't see them) for months till my daughter and grand kids moved back in. Now I am starting to see some of them again. I'm getting a kit to treat the house (1900sqft). Once I do the treatment, when should i have to treat again? Is there any thing that I can use for under the house since it is off grade to help keep them out?AWhen treating roaches it all depends on how bad the problem is as to how many times you have to treat. Once the problem is under control and you do not see any more roaches, it is recommended to spray something once every 30 to 60 days inside and outside your home to help keep the problem from…
Read Full Answer »When treating roaches it all depends on how bad the problem is as to how many times you have to treat. Once the problem is under control and you do not see any more roaches, it is recommended to spray something once every 30 to 60 days inside and outside your home to help keep the problem from coming back. Spraying inside and outside every 30 to 60 days will also keep all other pests out of your home. The Demon WP in the roach control kit that you purchased is great for treating under and around the house to keep pests out. -

Read Full Answer »The Roach Control Kit # 2 contains enough of each product to effectively treat an average home but severe infestations may take several months to eliminate and may require multiple treatments. Sanitation plays a key role in eliminating roach infestations as well. Be sure to wipe out sinks to remove moisture at the end of the night, vacuum and mop under and behind appliances to remove food debris, take out trash every night, limit food consumption to one room. We would recommend starting with one kit and purchasing more products if needed. -
Asked by Shawna08/10/2010QWhat can we use for a bad roach problem that would be safe around kids and pets?
We have two young kids, cats, dogs, birds and one really bad roach problem. We called a company to come out, but they only put out traps and said they would have to do it every six months. It seems to have only made it worse. What would be the best treatment to rid our house of these pests, but is safe for us and our pets?AAll of the products in the Roach Control Kit #2 would work very well to help eliminate roaches and are safe to use around pets and children when applied as directed on the product label.

Read Full Answer »All of the products in the Roach Control Kit #2 would work very well to help eliminate roaches and are safe to use around pets and children when applied as directed on the product label. When the actual application of the Demon WP is being made, all pets and children should be out of the house and they can return as soon as the treated areas are dry. The Advion roach bait gel should be placed directly into cracks and crevices around counters, sinks, drawers and cabinets. This will make the gel available to the roaches and inaccessible to your pets and children. The Gentrol Point Source do not actually contain any insecticides, just an insect juvenile growth hormone mimic. These discs can also be placed out of reach of children and animals and are readily used in sensitive locations such as hospitals and day cares everyday. Severe infestations may take several months to eliminate no matter what products you use. Sanitation will be a key factor in eliminating the roaches.

Asked by P05/06/2011QHow do I use the Roach Control Kit #2?
I'm not quite sure how to use the DuPont Advion that I received from you today. I read the instructions but still uncertain. Am I supposed to run it along every inch of my home? Like caulking or just place it here and there? Also the inhibitors, I got the #2 kit, how many should I use? And the mix for the spray, when should I use it? Do I use it in areas where I didn't use the Advion? Sorry to appear so ignorant, I'm a bit freaked out about this whole roach thing. Haven't had a problem in 20 years. My daughter brought them home with her from a friends house who is infested and now they are all over my kitchen and it's freaking me out.AThe Advion Roach Bait gel should be applied by placing one small pea sized dot every 10-12 inches directly into cracks and crevices around counters, sinks, drawers and cabinets.

You should use one Gentrol Point Source disc for every 75 sq ft of space. In order to know how many discs you should use you would need to know the square footage of the room (multiply the length of the room by the width of the room). Demon WP should be sprayed outdoors around door frames, window frames, in areas where utilities (cables, pipes, wires) enter into the structure, around the bottom of the foundation and other areas where insects are known to harbor. Inside you should apply Demon WP along baseboards, in cracks and crevices,under appliances, around door frames, window frames and in areas where utilities (cables, pipes, wires) enter into the structure. -
Asked by Terri from Merced Ca05/01/2014QWhat chemical/product do professionals use to kill roaches in an apartment?
For 2 yrs I have been fighting a roach problem in my apartment with all the products they have at Walmart, Target, and Walgreens, but I still see about 5 a day walking on the walls, and 7 at night in the kitchen when I turn on the lights. I ran into an old coworker who now works at a big name pest control company who said that I can buy the chemical that they use online but he didn't tell me the name of the chemical or product or the website where I can buy it. He said that if I have roaches walking on the wall in the daytime, that I have a problem. I want to know what I can buy that is stronger than what I can buy at the regular stores.AWe are not exactly sure which product each professional company choses to apply for roach control but we do offer professional strength products that will eradicate them.

Asked by Veronica12/03/2010QI have German cockroaches that are living under my deep-freezer. What is the best way to get rid of them?

Read Full Answer »One of the first things you should do is get someone to help you move the freezer and clean the area thoroughly. Dropped food or drinks can easily accumulate under or behind big appliances (or even on the bottom, sides or back of the appliance itself) and roaches can thrive on these forgotten items. After cleaning, you can apply a roach bait gel such as Advion Roach Bait Gel. The roaches will consume the gel and then transfer the gel to other roaches helping to eliminate the infestation. You should also use an IGR (or insect growth regulator) such as Gentrol. Gentrol will help interrupt the breeding cycle of the roaches while you are trying to get rid of the infestation. Last, you can use a good residual insecticide such as Demon WP around the perimeter of the room. Demon WP will help get rid of the roaches that are emerging from under the walls (a favorite hiding place for roaches is wall voids) and it will help stop the roaches from moving to other rooms. We have all three items available in the Roach Kit #2 for your convenience. -

We offer all three products in the Roach Control Kit 2. This professional kit includes 1 packet of Demon WP Insecticide (which makes 4 gallons of finished solution) for spraying the outside perimeter of the home and inside underneath appliances, behind cabinets, under toilets and sinks, etc. You'll also get 4 x 30 gram tubes of Advion Roach Bait Gel--one of the best roach baits on the market. Advion 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 hidden roaches by contact or by sharing food. Finally, 20 Gentrol Point Source stations provide an IGR (Insect Growth Regulator) that 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. Demon WP must be applied with a 1 gallon pump sprayer. It is very important that you do your part by making sure your home is impeccably clean while trying to get rid of a roach infestation. Poor sanitation will lead to roach control failure. -

Asked by Bryn07/15/2011QHow do you "pre-treat" an apartment?
I have never lived in an apartment before and I am moving into one at the end of the month. I know one bad apple can spoil a bunch when it comes to apartment complexes and the insects that also make themselves at home there. I am a very clean person and to be truthfully honest, roaches make me cry! ( I am very afraid of them).

Read Full Answer »Living in an apartment is definitely a situation you have to monitor closely. You may be very clean but a bad neighbor who is not can cause their roach problem to move into your apartment. To battle this issue, and to treat before you move in, you should get the roach control kit #2. The kit comes with a spray which is Demon WP. You will need a 1 gallon hand pump sprayer which does not come with the kit but we do sell if you don't have one. Demon WP is a powder you mix with water in a 1 gallon sprayer and apply to all of the baseboards, underneath appliances, where pipes go into the wall under the sinks and behind toilets, water heater closet, etc. Demon WP will kill all insects, and should provide a good knock down before you move in and ensure anything crawling around is dead. The other products in the kit, roach gel and IGR, should be put out only if you see a roach so you can get rid of the problem before it gets worse. -

Read Full Answer »It is rare that you would ever have roaches truly coming from your drain pipes. Most of the time when people see roaches coming out of their drain, it is only ones that have crawled down into it from your sink first and are then re-emerging. Unless you have a cracked pipe either in your home or somewhere in the sewage line for the city that leads into your home, the source is elsewhere. The best way to treat for roaches is to attack it full on before it becomes a huge infestation as they can reproduce quickly. We suggest using our Roach Control Kit #2 as this has everything you will need to completely eliminate all of the roache that are there as quickly as possible. The products in the kit provide you with two different poisons that they will take back to the colony you dont see to eliminate them at the source, as well as a birth control that will halt the growth of the colony until they die from the other products. You can also review our guide on How To Get Rid of German Roaches for tons of helpful information for controlling this species effectively. Please let us know if you have any other questions. -
Asked by Huayin from Houston, Tx09/26/2011QIs there any long term health concern for Demon WP soaking into carpet?
My apartment floor is covered in carpet. The roaches are seen along the baseboard crawling out of the carpet.

Like most pests, Palmetto Bugs require 3 things to thrive-food, water, and harborage. If you can eliminate even one of these things through proper sanitation, the roach population will be forced to either die or move someplace else. Discard old boxes and piles of papers where roaches can hide. Use a waste bin or trash can with a tight fitting lid and keep trash in a close plastic bag overnight. Fix leaky drains and faucets; roaches can live on water alone. Clean kitchen appliances thoroughly Empty pet food containers at night, or place them on the back porch or in a plastic bag. Vacuum regularly, and restrict food consumption to one room of the house. This will help keep Palmetto Bugs and other pests from spreading into others areas such as bedrooms. Exclusion
Palmetto Bugs prefer to live outdoors, but will easily set up residence indoors if they can find their way inside. Exclusion is about keeping Palmetto Bugs out, or at least making it harder for them to get in. Caulk and repair holes around doors, windows, water pipes and baseboards. Place mesh screens over windows, floor drains, and vents. These places serve as roach hideaways. Windows and doors should fit tightly and squarely within their frames to prevent both harborage and entry from outside.
Step 2) Chemical Methods for Palmetto Bug Control Dust Cracks & Crevices The dusts that work best against Palmetto Bugs are Delta Dust and CB Borid Boric Acid. Using a hand duster and following label instructions, apply dust liberally where roaches travel--underneath and behind baseboards, behind wall outlets, in wall voids, in cupboards and cabinets, and underneath appliances such as washers and dryers. Apply a Liquid Residual to the Perimeter Demand CS, Suspend SC, or Demon WP provide excellent control when mixed in a 2 gallon sprayerand applied at a low-pressure setting. Spray indoors along baseboards, especially in corners; window and door frames, on the underside of furniture, behind bookshelves, and in other problem areas as listed on the product label. With Palmetto bugs, the outher perimeter of the home or structure should also be treated. Residual sprays need to be reapplied every month to every 3 months, depending on the level of infestation. Baits Use Niban FG in attics, basements, and crawlspaces where Palmetto Bugs enter, and For added protection, spread DeltaGard G Granules outdoors in pine straw and mulched areas surrounding the infested structure. Kill ‘em on Contact
Contact sprays will kill roaches immediately on contact, and can also be used to "flush out" roaches from suspected harborages. Contact Sprays for Palmetto Bugs include CB-80 Extra, Cy-Kick, D-Force HPX, 565 Plus XLO. Don't Skip the IGR!
An IGR is a chemical used to disrupt and impede the life cycle of insects in the egg and larvae stage of development. The idea with an IGR is that if an insect cannot reach adulthood, it cannot reproduce. In short, IGR is a form of "birth control" for Palmetto Bugs and other pests, which helps to keep populations under control by preventing current and future infestations. The most common and effective IGR for roach control is Gentrol IGR, which comes in an aerosol ,concentrated liquid, and point-source tablet.
We recommend Gentrol IGR Concentrate to be added to your hand sprayer and sprayed right along with your baseboard chemical ( Demand CS, Suspend SC, or Demon WP).
For kitchen and bathroom areas, Gentrol Aerosol is the formulation of choice. Using the straw attachment, the IGR should be applied liberally to all visible cracks and crevices, including underneath, behind, and alongside appliances, behind outlets, along pipe collars, inside wall voids, and on top of kitchen cabinets near the ceiling.
Continue to apply IGR every 4 to 6 weeks for up to 6 months, or until all signs of infestation have been eliminated. -

I live an a multi-unit apartment building. The building is rather old, so there are plenty of places roaches hide. Will this work even if my neighbors are not treating their units?

Asked by Joanna from Centreville, Va12/06/2013QWhat should I do to get rid of roaches from inside a wall that is adjacent with my townhouse neighbors?
Being in a town home seems to make it difficult to get rid of roaches. I have tried boric acid with a lure and gel baits. I have sealed up with cocking as much as I can. The back wall of our home (which is a kitchen wall) is the same wall that connects with my neighbors. I first saw roaches behind my oven. (Even in the LED digital clock). Then I would see them mostly near the dishwasher. I even have seen a "white" one. It has been a few months since then, but I read that means that there is a heavy infestation. After seeing that "white" one, I used the gel baits and baited all the places that are recommended by professionals. I didn't see very many after that, but lately they have been showing up more. We live in a three level town home and so far I only see them on the main level (where the kitchen is) and a few in the basement. I am almost positive the "nest" is some where in the walls where I can't reach. We currently rent, so cutting a hole in the wall probably wouldn't work. I am almost that desperate though!
