At some point last year we somehow got a nasty invasion of
roaches in our flat (which makes it double hard to exterminate, as even
when you make the flat spotlessly clean, if your neighbours don't...
well... roaches will find their way back to you).
We tried a lot of
different products - started with the sprays (yes, they kill them on the
spot - but the nest remains). Traps. Various powders they were supposed
to carry on their feet to their nest. Fumigation that was supposed to
reach the nest. NOTHING made significant difference. There would
sometimes be fewer of them, but they just kept coming back, and even
when we thought it was better, suddenly we would still see one appearing
out of nowhere.
I was beginning to really lose hope, but this
product had great reviews so as last-ditch attempt we got this, put
little blobs of it (on little sticky notes) all over the apartment
(mostly on the floor), and we waited. First few days not much of a
difference, but then we started seeing some of them dead on the floor,
or sometimes in clearly not good shape (crawling slowly, or on their
backs trying to move to normal position). Any survivors we zapped with a
spray - but after a few weeks there were none left, and I think finally
we reached the neighbours' nests too.
This has been a few months ago
and, touch wood, still none appear. And if they do, at least I won't
lose any time with other methods but get a tube of this again.
By the
way, one tube will be more than enough for AGES. I'd have to buy a new
one only because we put it somewhere in a way that it leaked. So be
careful about that, otherwise it's brilliant.

Customers Review:
If you're reading this, you've likely tried the other
better-known pest solutions. Sticky traps and sprays all work just fine
at what they do, but really they don't fix the problem at the root. This
gave results within 24 hours, with dead roaches immediately obvious.
I wish the paste was a bit thicker as it comes out of the syringe pretty fast and it's hard to leave a good solid blob (ends up more of a smear), but this is a minor irritation. This smaller bottle seems to be enough for me, but I'd happily buy more if needed.
Yes, I know, it's expensive and it means admitting you have a serious infestation. My pride and wallet ache accordingly. But it's so, so worth it.

A few trick I want to share is I grab many empty plastic cups from canteen. Make 2 holds at each cup like two doors and apply this gel in each cup.
Then place each cups in your area you want. During first week, I can see 1-6 Cockroaches die daily.
In the end of 2nd week, I didn't see any Cockroach in my apartment again.
I highly recommend this product to anyone that has cockroaches infestation as it will terminate them within days.
I used it to get rid of cockroaches and it worked amazingly
the only problem is: the cockroaches will come back in around 4-5 months time and so you have to regularly by the product
Excellent product, don’t pay £100s to the specialists pest control companies,
Negative point: Very liquid. Started to melt like caramel after application behind or under furnitures.
Highly recommend this product.👍👍👍
I had a serious issue with insects at home, i have applied this product in several spots in the house....two later, no more insects!
Strongly recommended!
I'm hoping this is it for good. Someone said they'll come back after months. Does this mean the gel puts the roaches to sleep for a period of time? Overall I'm pleased with the product.
