QUICKER KILL

Prescription Treatment brand Advance Cockroach Gel Bait Provides the Quickest Kill!

Advance Cockroach Gel Bait provides the quickest kill of leading cockroach baits. As shown in the data below, Advance killed 50% of the adult German cockroaches in the first 4 hours. Other competitive roach bait formulations required 3 to 4 times longer to kill 50% of the German cockroaches.

Advance Cockroach Gel Bait’s active ingredient, dinotefuran, is a fast-acting, broad-spectrum insecticide that works through contact and ingestion. Dinotefuran is a nicotinic receptor agonist that interferes with sodium ion flow and disrupts the insect’s nervous system.

Listed as a subclass of neonicotinoid chemicals, it has no known resistance and is non-repellant. Advance Cockroach Gel Bait also has a new bait matrix for fast acceptance. The unique attractants in the bait matrix are attractive to both gelaverse and non-gel-averse roaches.

REDUCED RISK

Advance Cockroach Gel Bait has Reduced Risk status for German Cockroach Control.

The active ingredient in Advance Cockroach Gel Bait, dinotefuran, was granted both organophosphorus alternative and reduced risk status for public health use by the EPA. Public health pests are capable of spreading human disease or otherwise impacting human health. For example, the German cockroach has been linked to asthma and can contaminate food and eating utensils.


 

A new active ingredient and bait matrix cockroaches can’t resist.

Advance Cockroach Gel Bait features dinotefuran, a new fast-acting ingredient with no known resistance. Offering ingestion and contact kill, dinotefuran is in a new subclassification of neonicotinoid chemicals and offers PMPs a non-repellant combined with low mammalian toxicity.

In addition, Advance Cockroach Gel Bait features a new bait matrix which is attractive to both averse and nonaverse cockroaches–and it stays attractive for 30 days or more. Advance effectively solves the gel-aversion problem, while offering you the benefits of an easy-to-use gel bait.


Independent laboratory tests confirm the attractiveness
and quick killing power of Advance Cockroach Gel Bait.

Field trials verify Advance Cockroach Gel Bait’s effectiveness

In 2006, Advance Cockroach Gel Bait was tested by independent researchers in Texas, California and Virginia. Results from both lab and field tests consistently showed 98% or greater control of different strains of averse and non-averse cockroaches. In real world conditions (poor housekeeping, new roach introductions, bait contamination and other factors) Advance Cockroach Gel Bait quickly killed cockroaches and maintained control for 28 days. Furthermore, one month aged bait was tested versus fresh bait and demonstrated comparable results.
