Advion Cockroach Gel Bait
Advion Cockroach Gel Bait is a popular roach gel bait insecticide for controlling cockroach infestations. Advion's roach bait formula targets even the most bait-shy cockroaches and delivers a slow-acting kill so the bait can be passed around to affect the entire cockroach population.
09/20/25
Advion Cockroach Gel Bait, from Syngenta, is a cockroach gel bait with the active ingredient Indoxacarb. It is a key component of a proven cockroach control protocol, offering targeted application and fast colony elimination.
It can be used indoors and outdoors to control German and other common roach species. It is easy to apply and safe for even the most sensitive application sites. Also, unlike Advion Cockroach Bait Arena, which is stationary, gel bait allows precise placement in cracks, crevices, and hard-to-reach areas where cockroaches hide.
This product is formulated with a high-performing bait matrix designed to kill the toughest and prevailing cockroach species, like German and American cockroaches, and even gel bait-averse cockroaches.
Advion Cockroach Gel Bait offers a slow kill. So, after the cockroach bait consumption, the pests who feed on the bait have enough time to share and spread the bait amongst the colony. This creates a cascading effect that will kill roach populations quickly and efficiently. So, no need to compromise gel bait quality; Advion provides proven cockroach elimination.
Tools Needed
This product comes in a ready-to-use bait applicator, so no tools are needed.
How To Use
- Step 1: Thoroughly inspect the infested area to determine which areas you need to apply pea-sized Advion cockroach bait drops.
- Step 2: Sanitize the area, removing all potential food sources. Clean the surfaces with water and a rag to ensure no chemicals are on them. This ensures that the Advion cockroach bait is the roaches' focus.
- Step 3: Apply pea-sized small dots in areas where insects are frequent. For heavy cockroach infestations, apply 3 to 5 spots every 10 linear feet. For light infestations, place gel bait of 1 to 2 dots every 10 linear feet. Place the dots of Advion cockroach bait behind your refrigerator, along your baseboards, in cracks and crevices, along corners, and anywhere else you have noticed activity.
- Step 4: Check the Advion cockroach bait at least once a month and repeat the process as needed.
Where to use
Advion Cockroach gel bait can be safely applied indoors and outdoors if needed. Focus baiting areas in the kitchen, bathrooms, cabinets, underneath kitchen appliances, drawers, under sinks, in weep holes, and other entry points to the house.
When to use
Apply when controlling cockroaches in residential, institutional, commercial, and industrial areas.
Safety Information
Advion Cockroach Bait is safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when applying this product.
Do not treat areas that are easily accessible to children and pets.
Special Considerations
Advion Roach Gel Bait contains the active ingredient Indoxacarb, which allows cockroaches to consume the bait without killing them instantly. This allows them time to take the bait back to their harborage sites to contaminate the other roaches.
Due to the slow-acting poison, it can take some time to see a significant result. Repeated applications may be necessary, especially if you have a heavy infestation.
