Advion Cockroach Gel Bait did not work for my roach infestation and I used your product exactly as described.

I used the product exactly as described and it does not work. Areas were not contaminated where bait was placed, roaches never touched it, it dried up after a day and now seeing more roaches than before. Dozens scatter on countertops when turning my kitchen light on.

Answer:

When you notice more roaches attracted to the bait that is normal and an indication that the product is working. The attractants lure them to the locations you placed the bait in your structure in order for the product to be accepted and effective. Rotating with other baits aside from Advion would be advised every 90 days for an integrated pest management. For active roach infestations, using a roach bait alone will not eliminate them. It is recommended to use a combination treatment program with a residual insecticide (along baseboards, behind appliances, under cabinets, sinks, around windows, etc) and an insect growth regulator to help stop the reproduction cycle.  Repeat applications of spraying the insecticide and replacing bait placements are required every 10 to 14 days. If still seeing roaches after 90 days, you will want to continue spraying the insecticide but rotate to another roach bait to offer a different bait matrix.  For additional tips and products to incorporate in your treatment plan, please check out Roach Control Kits and Roach Treatment Guide
