      Solutions against German cockroaches

      My kitchen is infested with cockroaches (the reddish ones, that I think are Blattella germanica). I used Raid traps that are supposed to attract cockroaches, slowly poisoning them so that they carry the poison into the nest, killing the other cockroaches and larvae. I put 4 traps in a small kitchen and, although their number has decreased, I still haven’t got rid of them.
      I saw that on your site a product called Trap-A-Roach that only attracts them and, as a result, makes them get stuck on it. I also saw some IGR products that would be non-toxic for animals and humans (I also have a small puppy in the house).
      My problem is that Trap-A-Roach attracts cockroaches from everywhere, including from the neighbors, so I don’t know if I should buy it. (I was thinking of using it in December, when the number of cockroaches coming from the neighbors will be lower). The IGR products are not very well described on the site. OK, I take the powder, I pay a lot of money on it, but how do I use it, in what concentration, what do I do with what is left after the treatment, etc? Can you recommend something? Thanks.

      Trap A Roach, 5 pieces can be used, with the mention that they attract cockroaches from a distance of about 1-2 meters, without them being possible to attract the ones from the neighbors.
      However, in the event of a major infestation, it would be more suitable for you to destroy the entire nest. For this, the insecticide gel i21.5 Premise Gel, 20 g can be used. This product contains food attractants and if one beetle dies after consuming the gel, the others will feed on the dead one and die as well. This “domino” effect also leads to the destruction of the nest. The gel is not harmful to humans or animals. It should be applied in hidden areas (behind appliances, behind kitchen furniture, under furniture, under the baseboard, etc.) which further reduces the possibility of pets coming into contact with the gel.
