Due to biology and reproductive cycles, roach infestations typically require more than one product and more than one treatment to completely eradicate the problem. With our Roach Control Kits, we’ve combined some of the top-rated professional-grade products on the market into one easy-to-use kit designed to combat roaches in multiple ways.
Our Roach Control Kits all include insect monitoring glue boards to trap roaches and help you monitor your infestation levels, an insect growth regulator (IGR) that acts as birth control, interrupting the reproductive cycle of roaches, a spray insecticide to treat cracks & crevices where roaches hide and travel, and a highly attractive roach bait that roaches will carry back to their nest to share with others.
Roach Control Kit Rotation A is ideal for beginning or cleanout treatments of cockroach infestations in homes, apartments, and similar areas. This kit contains the chemical products we recommend using after you have been able to inspect the treatment area and take preventative measures such as eliminating food and water sources and harborage areas. Using all these techniques together is crucial for effective roach treatment.
Roach Control Kit – Rotation A includes:
*Advion WDG must be diluted with water and applied with a pump sprayer, such as the Chapin 1 gallon pump sprayer.
If you have already used Roach Control Kit A and you still have roaches, we recommend rotating treatment with Roach Control Kit Rotation B and Roach Control Kit Rotation C.

Complete roach treatment includes two primary parts: Sanitation and Preparation, and the application of products. You will want to inspect for where roaches are hiding and breeding so that you know where to concentrate your energy. Next, prepare for treatment by eliminating food and water sources and reducing and sealing off harborage areas. After performing these crucial preparation steps, you are ready to apply the products in your Roach Control Kit.
How to Apply Roach Control Kit – Rotation A
STEP 1: Baiting - Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Bait Gel
*To use the Maxforce FC Magnum tube, remove the closed tip by gently unscrewing it, and replace it with one of the included reuseable open tips. Use the provided plastic plunger or a bait gun to dispense the gel.
*Apply small bait placements approximately ¼ inch in diameter directly to cracks and crevices where roaches are most likely to encounter it. Ideal bait placements include:
Behind kitchen cabinets and counter tops.
*Do not apply bait in spots where you have used or plan to use insecticide sprays.
*Smaller, more frequent bait placements are better accepted than fewer, larger placements.
*Use up to 1.5 grams of bait (15 x 0.1gm placements) per square yard for light to moderate infestations.
*Use up to 3.0 grams of bait (30 x 0.1gm placements) per square yard for severe infestations.
*After application, replace the open tip with the closed tip to keep bait fresh, and store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children or pets.
*Reapply bait every 2-3 weeks or when placements appear to be gone.
*Roaches will die by ingesting the bait, physical contact with the bait or its residue, or from contact with roaches or feces of roaches that have consumed the bait.
STEP 2: Insect Growth Regulator - Gentrol Point Source Stations
*Do not activate Gentrol Point Source Stations until you are ready to use them. To activate a station, press firmly on the pouch located on the side of the device until you hear a snap or pop to indicate the capsule has been opened.
*Place the station in any orientation (vertical or horizontal) in areas where roach activity has been found. Ideal point source placements include:
In and around kitchen or bathroom cabinets.
*Each station treats up to 75 square feet for 90 days from activation. For areas larger than 75 square feet, use multiple stations.
*For convenient follow up, you can mark the month when a station has been activated with a pen directly on the station.
*For vertical placements, remove the paper backing to expose the sticky surface on the back of the station and press firmly onto a clean surface.
*The active ingredient will move from the station throughout the treatment area, so roaches do not have to come into direct contact with the station in order to pick up the active ingredient.
*Do not apply baits, sprays, or other insecticides directly onto the stations, although these may be used in the same areas.
STEP 3: Spraying – Advion WDG Insecticide
*You will need a hand pump sprayer such as a Chapin 1 gallon pump sprayer to mix and apply Advion WDG.
*Use 2 x 0.33 oz doses (2 single dose packets) per gallon of water for your first application, and 1 x 0.33 oz dose (1 single dose packet) for follow-up treatments, if needed.
*To mix Advion WDG: Add when filling spray tank with water, or fill tank 1/3 - 1/2 with water, add Advion WDG, then finish filling the tank. Shake or agitate the mixture before spraying.
*Reapply every 21 days as needed.
*If diluted spray is stored overnight, agitate before using. Only dilute what you plan to use within 24 hours of mixing.
*Apply Advion WDG mixture as a spot or crack and crevice treatment where roaches have been seen or can find shelter or entry. Application sites may include:
Entry points such as around doors, windows, and water pipes.
*Do not apply on top of bait placements or where bait placements may be made. As a general rule, spray low, and bait high.
*Keep pets and children out of the treatment area until the spray is dry.
*Do not spray food handling surfaces or in ways in which food or utensils may be contaminated with the spray.
STEP 4: Be Patient
*Complete roach control may take from a few weeks up to six months, depending on the size of the population and your diligence with good sanitation practices. Large populations do not appear overnight, so they will not be eliminated overnight.
*Use the included Catchmaster Insect Monitor Glue Boards to track your progress:
Separate each card along the perforated lines to create three smaller boards from each larger card. This will create a total of 12 monitors from the 4 larger cards.
*Reapply products according to the instructions above until the roaches are eliminated.
*For situations requiring treatments over several months, rotate your baits using our Roach Control Kit B and Roach Control Kit C.

German Roach Infestation cure and Do My Own Pest Control
By Bobby on 07/09/2016
It is always pleasant to have the experience of doing business with a company that offers, great product and outstanding service! Pleasant and Rare, I might add. Your are currently looking at one of those rare companies and if you need do it yourself pest control, well just look at the company name. You are at the right place. I have used two, "professional pesticide to homeowners" type business's before, both were good. This company has an outstanding array of products and excellent service via internet or phone. Great employees, great product, great service, need I say more. I used the roach control kit, rotation A for a family members condo, worked great wiping out about 98% of the pest with the first application. So if you need it, get it here! Great value too, do not waste your money on pest control contracts or grocery store or big box store watered down junk, worthless! Great stuff, great price! P.S. I apologize for sounding like Trump, but this company is excellent and a blessing. Highly Recommended *****

My Preferred Roach Extermination Tactic
By Tj on 08/13/2017
This is what has worked VERY well for me in the past on several occasions. The key to successful roach extermination is to break the life-cycle of the roach population, so they cannot breed. This kit has several useful weapons! First of all it comes with a spray that kills any roaches that come in contact with it. Second, it comes with traps which are super handy in the kitchen and bathrooms where you really don't want to see those nasty little things. Third- it comes with a gel-bait. I wish I could show you how to install that when you get it. You put little bitty dabs every foot or two where the roaches travel (like on the edges of counter tops). The roaches think that it is food and carry it back to their buddies who all suffer the consequences and wrath of the homeowner. Last, and MOST importantly- this kit includes several insect hormone growth inhibitors. I know, it's a mouthful. These things emit a pheromone into the air (not toxic to humans at all) which prevent the females from reproducing. What you'll begin to notice after using this is that the roaches will have shriveled up wings. Those are the nasty female that will no longer be able to have any baby roaches. Life-cycle broken!

When using the roach control kits how often should they be rotated? Do I rotate the hole kit or just the roach bait gel?
After using Roach Control Kit Rotation A it would be best to then go to Kit B within 3-4 months then C if still needed. It's always a good idea to rotate roach bait with different actives/bait matrix as roaches can develop bait aversion when the same bait attractant is used over a long period of time. Insecticides are rotated less often as it takes years of exposure to develop resistance.
I have huge bugs that my friend says is a palmetto bug and my husband calls them water bugs or wood roaches. Will this kill these kinds of bugs too?
The products in the Roach Control Kit Rotation A are more geared towards treating the smaller roach species indoors.
Getting rid of palmetto bugs requires patience, persistence, and a combination of both chemical and non-chemical methods. 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.
Demon WP provides excellent control when mixed in a 1-gallon or 2-gallon sprayer and applied at a low-pressure setting. In addition, you can mix in Gentrol IGR which prevents pest larvae from progressing to the pupal stage of development, so the larvae die before they become breeding adults and future infestations. 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 outer perimeter of the home or structure should also be treated. Residual sprays like these need to be reapplied every month to every 3 months, depending on the level of infestation.
For added protection, spread DeltaGard G Granules outdoors in pine straw, mulched areas, landscapes surrounding the infested structure. Deltamethrin in a new water-dispersible carrier to provide quick knockdown and lasting control of insect pests in lawns and landscaped areas.
There are several cockroaches living around the dishwasher between the counter and the appliance. I don't see a way to successfully get Temprid or bait in the dishwasher cabinet cavity. What do you advise?
When using Roach Control Kit Rotation A you would apply Temprid to the baseboards, window seals, and door frames as a cracks and crevices treatment to provide residual control around the perimeter of each room. You would apply the bait on the hinges of cabinets and above countertops. If the roaches are in the kitchen and there is no other food source they will find there way to the bait. Please also review the following guide on how to get rid of roaches: https://www.domyown.com/how-to-get-rid-of-roaches-a-458.html
Although the bait gel, Maxforce FC Magnum, included in the Roach Control Kit Rotation A may dry out, we do not recommend adding anything that could compromise the mode of action and efficacy of the product. It is possible for the bait to dry out but it will continue to work. We do recommend applying fresh bait every two to three weeks because, much like our food, it may become unpalatable due to the inert ingredients. Please take a few moments to review our Roach Control Guide for further tips and information.
...from the single use container? And if so, are instructions provided? Or, is it better to buy something like the liquid Demon max pint and use the given reservoir?
mixed with an insecticide like Temprid or Demon Max?
- or would the purifier degrade the effectiveness?
When using the products in our Roach Control Kit Rotation A, remove or tightly cover fish tanks and disconnect aerators during application and until the application has dried to completely.
The contents in Roach Control Kit Rotation A will provide you with enough products to do 2-3 treatments when treating at 10-14 day intervals with reapplying Temprid FX and replacing bait placements as required. How much and how many treatments you need will depend on the level of infestation and how consistant and thorough you are being with treatments as well as proper sanitation and good housekeeping.
Please view our How to Get Rid of Roaches Treatment Guide and Where to Apply Roach Bait videos for more information.
The only difference in the Roach Control Kits A, B & C is the roach bait gel in each kit. When treating for active roach infestations, repeat applications of Temprid FX and replacing bait placements are required every 10-14 days until you no longer are seeing roach activity.
If still baiting after 60 days, you will need to rotate to one of the other kits to prevent bait aversion or bait avoidance. Each roach bait gel uses a different active ingredient and a different bait attractant.
Roach Control Kit Rotation A contains Maxforce Magnum Roach Bait Gel and Roach Controk Kit B contains Alpine Roach Bait Gel.
I've been reading through the various guides and products and they seem largely focused on controlling roaches inside the home. I've been getting a huge rush of roaches all around the perimeter - garage, outbuilding, and an enclosed but unconditioned "sun room". Will these products hold up under that level of heat, humidity, and in some cases direct sunlight, or are they really meant for fully-indoor spaces? I've already had an exterminator spray the perimeter (I believe they used Talstar and Tempo SC Ultra), and the dozens upon dozens of roaches I continue to see are almost always dead or nearly-dead (flipped on their backs but still moving their legs), but they still keep coming in, probably because the residual kills them very slowly. Would this kit be any improvement over that, or is there another product or treatment method I should be looking at?
Temprid FX is one of the best products to spray for roaches and other pests. You can treat outdoors, one foot up on the foundation and one foot out on the ground. Indoors, you can spray on baseboards areas and cracks and crevices.
