Gel baits are among the most effective products for managing cockroach infestations, as they allow you to target the majority of the population directly at the infestation sites, which are often hidden and difficult to reach.
Let’s explore why Advion® Cockroach Gel is a powerful solution for controlling cockroach infestations.
Cockroaches are well-known for their widespread presence, adaptability, and resistance. Their high reproductive rate, combined with specific biological and behavioral characteristics, makes managing infestations particularly challenging.
Advion® Cockroach Gel combines a patented, highly attractive bait matrix with a unique active ingredient, Indoxacarb, which is highly effective against the most common cockroach species, including: Blattella germanica (German cockroach), Supella longipalpa (Brown-banded cockroach), Blatta orientalis (Oriental cockroach), Periplaneta americana (American cockroach).
Advion® Cockroach Gel and Advion® Ant Gel are HACCP International certified for use in food industry environments in Splash or Spill Zones.
With HACCP certification, pest control professionals can confidently apply Advion gels in sensitive areas such as Food processing plants, Restaurants, Bars and any other environments where food safety is critical.
Monitoring and preventing infestations is a requirement under the HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) plans for companies in the food production and service sectors.
Several studies have shown that Advion® Cockroach Gel is more palatable than most other gels on the market.
Advion® Cockroach Gel achieves a horizontal transfer of the insecticide, meaning the active ingredient is passed between cockroaches within the same colony.
Here’s how it works:
Cockroaches exhibit coprophagy (feeding on feces), as well as feeding on secretions and the remains of deceased individuals. This behavior facilitates the horizontal transfer of Indoxacarb, ultimately eliminating the infestation.
Blattella germanica, Supella longipalpa, Blatta orientalis and Periplaneta americana.
Thanks to a unique bio-activation process, the cockroach’s internal enzymes convert Indoxacarb into its lethal form. This metabolic activation allows Indoxacarb to:
This ensures that pest control professionals can manage infestations effectively while reducing environmental impact.
Due to this precise chemical process, Advion® Cockroach Gel is the only gel on the market without hazard pictograms, highlighting its excellent eco-toxicological profile.
