Product Information

Advion® Cockroach Gel Bait is designed to control pest species of cockroaches such as German, American, Australian, Smoky-Brown, Brown, Asian, Oriental, and Brown-Banded.

Insect Resistance Management

For resistance management, Advion Cockroach Gel Bait contains a Group 22A insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Advion Cockroach Gel Bait and other Group 22A insecticides. The resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are used repeatedly in the same treated areas. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed.

To delay insecticide resistance, take the following steps:

• Rotate the use of Advion Cockroach Gel Bait or other Group 22A insecticides with different groups that control the same pests.
• Contact your local Syngenta representative, retailer, or extension specialist for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for the specific site and pest problems in your area.
• For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Syngenta at 1-866-SYNGENT(A) (866-796-4368).

Use Instructions and Precautions:

Do not treat areas that are easily accessible to children and pets.

1. Advion Cockroach Gel Bait can be used indoors or outdoors applied as a crack and crevice treatment within residential homes, industrial facilities, offices, warehouses, commercial kitchens, hospitals, schools, nursing homes, hotels, buses, trains, aircraft, retail and commercial establishments, and other areas infested with cockroaches.
2. Apply Advion Cockroach Gel Bait to areas frequented by cockroaches such as between different elements of construction, between equipment and floors, openings leading into voids and hollow spaces in floors, walls, ceilings, equipment legs and bases, around plumbing pipes, doors and windows, and behind and under appliances, cabinets, sinks, closets, and any other equipment that cockroaches are typically known to hide.
3. Do not apply Advion Cockroach Gel Bait to surfaces recently treated with residual sprays.
4. Do not apply residual sprays to surfaces treated with Advion Cockroach Gel Bait.

Treatment Rates for All Uses

Bead Application: For all levels of cockroach infestations, when a bead of Advion Cockroach Gel Bait is used, apply a small thin bead that is less than 1/8" wide and approximately 2 inches long.

Indoor Use Directions

• Infested areas must be carefully inspected to determine overall infestation levels, locations of harborage areas, and most appropriate application points.
• Apply Advion Cockroach Gel Bait as a small spot of material, approximately 0.5 grams (approx. 1/4" in dia.), to areas not able to be contacted by children or pets.
• Several small applications distributed within an area are more effective than 1 or 2 applications of large quantities.
• Indoor applications include cracks and crevices along walls or floors, behind or under equipment, under tables, within framing of tables or furniture, around sinks, within or near garbage collection areas, attics, crawl spaces, and cracks and crevices in cabinets.
• Inspect Advion Cockroach Gel Bait placements periodically for consumption or attractiveness and reapply as needed.

Applications in Nonfood/Nonfeed Handling Areas

Includes areas such as garbage rooms, lavatories, floor drains (to sewers), entries, and vestibules, offices, locker rooms, machine rooms, boiler rooms, garages, mop closets and storage.

Applications in Food/Feed Handling Areas

Application to food/feed areas of food/feed handling establishments may only be made as a crack and crevice treatment ONLY.

• Apply Advion Cockroach Gel Bait directly into cracks and crevices by placing the bait dispenser tip approximately 1/2 inch into cracks, crevices, holes and similar openings where cockroaches are found or are entering.
• Food and feed handling areas include areas for receiving, storage, packing (canning, bottling, wrapping, boxing), preparing edible waste storage, and enclosed processing systems (mills, dairies, edible oils, syrups).
• Serving areas are also considered a food/feed area when food is exposed and facility is in operation.
• Do not apply Advion Cockroach Gel Bait to areas where food/feed, food utensils or food processing surfaces may come into contact and become contaminated.
• Do not apply Advion Cockroach Gel Bait to areas that are routinely washed such as cracks and crevices in tops of tables, food/feed preparation and prepared food holding surfaces as bait could be removed by the washing.
• Do not apply Advion Cockroach Gel Bait to surfaces where the temperature exceeds 120-130°F because this could cause the bait to liquefy and lose effectiveness.
• Examples include parts of stoves, ovens, grills, fume hoods, saunas, heat lamps, coffee urns, steam tables, toasters, fryers, dishwashers, and hot water pipes.
• Use good application practice to avoid movement of Advion Cockroach Gel Bait to exposed surfaces. If gel contacts an exposed surface, remove as much as possible then wash with soap and water.

Outdoor Use Directions:

A thorough inspection around a structure may reveal areas where cockroaches are gaining access. Attempts should be made to remove the access. Advion Cockroach Gel Bait may also be applied as a spot or thin bead (see above) to pest entry sites such as along windows, doors, between construction elements, sewer areas, adjacent trees which harbor cockroaches, along walls, garbage holding areas, or suitable placement site acting as a cockroach harborage. Place baits in such a way as to reduce the potential of subsequent human contact. Inspect periodically and apply fresh bait as needed.

Storage and Disposal

Do not contaminate water, food or feed by storage and disposal.
