Sheri from Portland, Or writes
The Advion Roach Bait Gel should be applied in very tiny dabs in places where the cat cannot access. For the product to be harmful to your cat they would have ingest a large amount of the product. If you do apply the gel correctly in tiny dabs, the cat should not even notice it. Tiny dabs meaning less than half the size of a pencil eraser. Places to put a tiny dab of roach gel are places where roaches can sometimes congregate. Common areas for roaches to hide are: hinges of door frames, around the door frame, along the side and underneath of any cabinets against the walls (tiny crack where they meet the wall), inside corners of cabinets and drawers, underneath the lip of the counter top every 8 to 10 inches, corners of window frames, behind and underneath any appliances like dorm fridges, microwaves, etc. According to the the Advion Roach Bait Gel MSDS:"Potential Health Effects-Based on animal testing, no biologically significant effects are expected from skin or eye contact or by ingestion." You should still read and follow the product label which recommends that you use the roach bait gel in places that will be inaccessible to your pet.
