Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel Bait
Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel Bait
Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel is a powerful and long-lasting roach gel bait that keeps roaches out of commercial and residential areas by either contact or ingestion. Lasts for up to one year after the initial application.
Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel Bait, manufactured by Bayer, is a effective fipronil based insecticide bait gel combined with a new technology called ContactX to eliminate cockroaches in commercial, industrial, and residential areas.
This roach killer bait comes in an applicator tube that makes it easy to apply in areas where various types of roaches hide. Delivers fast control over cockroaches in a lesser amount of time as seen with American or Smokey Brown cockroaches in 8 days, while German cockroaches will be killed within 2 days of treatment.
Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel Bait ensures fast roach control whether by ingestion, contact, or spread from one location to the next. After foraging roaches ingest or come in contact with the bait, they will return to their harborage to spread the poison, systematically eliminating entire infestations.
Tools Needed
Tools are not needed for applying Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel Bait since it comes in a ready-to-use applicator. This product includes the bait reservoir, a plunger, and applicator tips.
We do recommend using, bait stations, index or business cards to make applications in hard to reach areas.
How to Use
- Step 1: Locate areas where targeted roaches are traveling and then measure the size of the area you wish to treat in square yards. To find the square footage of the treatment area, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). For light to moderate infestations, use up to 1.5 grams of Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel Bait per square yard. For heavy infestations, use 3.0 grams of product per square yard.
- Step 2: Remove the plug from the reservoir and replace it with an applicator tip. Using the plunger, push the gel through the syringe until it comes out in a small pea-sized drop. Use Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel Bait as spot or crack and crevice treatment indoors and outdoors to control cockroach activity. Apply near roach harborages or anywhere else you may have observed cockroach activity. To avoid stains and for easy cleanup, we recommend you apply drops of the bait gel onto index cards. Baited cards can be used to treat tight spaces like underneath appliances where cockroaches may harbor.
- Step 3: When finished, remove the applicator tip and replace with the plug. Check your bait placements and re-apply as needed. Depending on the severity of the infestation, continue to make applications monthly or quarterly for long-term control.

Keith's Pro Tips | "Before making applications with Maxforce FC Magnum Roach Gel Bait to eliminate roaches, remove all secondary food and water sources, such as pet food and water bowls. Also, place 4 to 5 pea size dots of gel bait on index cards, and then slide the cards under appliances, as German cockroaches often hang out in those areas." |

Q:What is the best bait to kill german roaches?9/1/20

Q:How do I kill roaches living in the door of the oven?5/1/18A:I would recommend using a good pyrethrin aerosol to spray in the cracks and seams, make sure if the oven is gas that the pilot light is turned off and gas is disconnected. This should take the population down very quickly and give you a good indication of population of roaches. After you can apply the gel bait around the oven, near the base and cabinets. This should take care of the problem. https://www.solutionsstores.com/pyrid-aerosol-insecticide
