Detour Gel by PiGNX is a professional grade insect and rodent control barrier sealant. Its all-weather formula makes it so it won't melt or freeze. Detour Gel will remain effective for up to one year outdoors and three years indoors when applied on non-porous surfaces. It is non-toxic and safe for application in restaurants, food storage, food processing, and food preparation areas. It's easy to use; you apply it the same way you apply caulk. For a non-pesticide method of rodent control, Detour is a solid option.

Tools Needed

To use Detour Gel, you will need a caulking gun to dispense the product in areas you would like to control rodents.

How to Use

• Step 1: Observe and inspect areas where you have noticed insect or rodent activity (where you have observed rodent runways, rodent feces and urine etc.). These will be the areas of focus to apply the Detour.
• Step 2: Remove the cap and cut the nozzle at a 45-degree angle to the desired bead size. Apply Detour Gel the same way you would use caulk to seal up cracks, crevices and points of entry to keep pests and rodents out. The difference with this product is that it contains a pepper ingredient that is irritating to rodents and insects when they come into contact with the sealant, so they will not want to cross over it.
• Step 3: Once finished with the application, wipe off the excess product to prevent people from coming into contact with the Detour Gel.

Where to Use

Use Detour Gel wherever you are dealing with a rodent problem and where they are actively infesting. Detour is especially useful in residences and places of business like restaurants, food storage areas, and grocery stores. Common areas to place Detour are along walls, runways, vent screens, A/C ducts, holes in walls, holes in sidings, floor drains, doorways and grease traps.

Also, place Detour Gel around both sides of doors to seal and create a barrier. (Apply around the door on each side not across the door). Apply under counters, on pipes, in holes, crevices, window sills, and electrical conduits or any other areas where rodents can potentially come in contact with the product. For hard to reach areas, you can apply Detour Gel onto a dish or tray and spread it with a disposable brush.

When to Use

Detour Gel should be used when you are encountering a rodent infestation that can happen any time of the year but is particularly on the rise in the fall and winter.

Safety Information

Detour Gel is safe to use when applied according to label directions. Wear gloves when applying Detour Gel to be on the safe side and do not place sealant anywhere that pets and children could reach or come into contact with.

Special Considerations

Though it is not likely to stain, we suggest testing the product before applying to see if it will stain on a surface you put it on.
