Syngenta Advion Cockroach Gel
Gel BaitActive Ingredient: Indoxacarb 0.6%
The gold standard in cockroach gel baiting. Advion uses a unique metabolic mode of action — cockroaches consume the bait and transfer it through contact and feces to nestmates, causing colony-wide elimination within 7–14 days. Attractive to all cockroach species including bait-averse populations.
Used For
German, American, and Oriental cockroaches in kitchens, restaurants, and food storage areas
Safety: WHO Class: U (Unlikely to present acute hazard). Child and pet safe when used as directed.
Bayer Maxforce FC Select
Gel BaitActive Ingredient: Fipronil 0.01%
A highly effective fipronil-based gel bait with a powerful transfer effect. A single cockroach consuming MaxForce FC Select will typically infect 40 additional cockroaches through the "Domino Effect" before dying. Particularly effective for heavy, established infestations where other baits have failed.
Used For
Heavy German cockroach infestations, bait-resistant populations, commercial kitchens
Safety: Low toxicity, WHO approved. Placed in inaccessible bait stations away from food surfaces.
