Cockroach control for the home

Cockroach gel bait kits for different infestation levels

A practical solution for kitchens, bathrooms and other active areas. The 10 g gel allows targeted placement in cracks, while enclosed bait stations can be positioned near walls, pipes and appliances.

  • For cracks and concealed activity areas
  • Clear choice by the number of active zones
  • Ready-made START, HOME and MAX kits

Place baits only as directed on the label, out of reach of children and pets, and away from food.

Best suited forKitchen, bathroom or one zoneA large home or wider problem

Cockroaches move between harbourages, water and food. Count every activity area: under sinks, behind appliances, around pipes, cabinets and skirting boards.

Understand the problem

What should you know about cockroaches?

Cockroaches commonly remain hidden during the day and emerge after dark in search of water and food. A visible insect may be only part of a population concealed in cracks, cabinets, service voids and spaces behind appliances.

01

They prefer warm and humid places

Kitchens, bathrooms, areas under sinks, pipework, drains and heat-producing appliances are particularly attractive harbourage areas.

02

Night-time activity is typical

Cockroaches usually forage at night. Frequent daytime sightings may indicate stronger activity, limited shelter or a more established problem.

03

They reproduce in concealed spaces

Eggs are protected in egg cases that may remain in cracks and difficult-to-reach voids. Removing only the visible insects therefore may not resolve the whole problem.

04

Bait works best as part of a plan

Removing crumbs, water and waste, sealing gaps and positioning baits correctly reduces alternative resources and supports effective control.

Where do cockroaches commonly hide?

Under sinksBehind fridges and cookersAround pipes and drainsCabinet cracksAlong skirting boardsNear waste areas

Important: droppings, shed skins and cockroach debris can contaminate surfaces and act as allergens. Cleaning and pest control should be carried out together.

Simple selection

Choose a kit by the active areas

Choose a kit that allows bait to be placed in every area where cockroaches hide, travel or feed.

START

Choose START when:

  • cockroaches are seen in one kitchen or bathroom
  • these are the first or occasional sightings
  • activity is centred around one sink or appliance
  • bait is needed for one main zone
START →
MAX

Choose MAX when:

  • the problem covers several rooms or floors
  • sightings are frequent, daytime or recurring
  • a larger number of bait points is required
  • a large home or rental property needs control
MAX →

When uncertain, count every separate activity area. Too few bait points may leave some harbourages without control.

Consistent control

How should cockroach baits be placed?

Always follow the label of every product. The steps below help organise the process but do not replace the official instructions for use.

01

Locate the active areas

Inspect around sinks, pipes, drains, appliances, cabinets and waste areas. Look for droppings, shed skins, egg cases and live insects.

02

Remove accessible food and water

Clean crumbs and spills, seal food and waste, remove standing water and repair leaks where possible.

03

Clean around harbourages

Vacuum cracks, spaces beneath appliances and skirting-board areas. Do not apply strong cleaning products directly onto placed baits.

04

Position the enclosed stations

Place stations along walls, in corners and close to harbourages or travel routes, only in locations permitted by the label.

05

Apply the gel in small points

Place small gel spots in cracks and concealed locations inaccessible to children and pets. Do not apply to food-contact surfaces.

06

Monitor and replenish

Inspect bait locations regularly. Reapply depleted, contaminated or dried gel as directed by the label and seal gaps used by cockroaches.

Two complementary bait formats

Why does the kit contain gel and enclosed stations?

Both formats are intended for cockroach activity areas, but they allow bait to be positioned in different ways.

10 G GEL

Precise placement in cracks

The 10 g gel can be divided into small points in cracks, around pipes, behind appliances and other difficult-to-reach areas permitted by the label.

For flexible distribution of many small bait points
1.4 G BAIT STATION

Convenient placement in active zones

Enclosed 1.4 g stations can be positioned along walls, in corners, under sinks and near appliances without direct handling of the gel.

For quick and organised placement
+

Combining both formats helps cover narrow cracks and more open travel routes. Do not spray products directly onto bait or contaminate it with strong odours or cleaning agents.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about cockroach control kits

Which kit should I choose?

START is intended for one active area, HOME for a standard apartment and several activity locations, and MAX for multiple rooms, frequent sightings or a recurring problem.

Where should the baits be placed?

Close to harbourages and travel routes: under sinks, around pipes, in corners, behind appliances, near cabinets and skirting boards. Always select locations permitted by the label.

Can an aerosol be used at the same time?

Do not spray other products directly onto gel or stations, or immediately beside them, because the bait may become contaminated. Any combination of products must follow their labels.

How quickly does bait work?

The bait must be found and eaten, so the result is not always immediate. Monitor activity over the following days and follow the timing information on the product label.

What do daytime cockroach sightings mean?

One sighting does not define the whole infestation, but frequent daytime activity may indicate stronger activity, limited shelter or a more established problem.

Are the baits safe around children and pets?

These are biocidal products. Place them only as directed on the label, where children and pets cannot reach them, and away from food and food-contact surfaces.

Is cleaning necessary?

Yes. Removing crumbs, spills, waste and standing water reduces alternative food and water sources. Do not wash away bait points that have already been placed.

When should I contact a professional?

Professional help is appropriate when activity is heavy, the problem involves several apartments or premises, repeatedly returns, or does not decrease despite correct bait placement and hygiene measures.
