User questions & answers

Question:	Does the bait evaporate? It seems all my baits are reducing at same rate, which makes me think evaporation...what is rate of evaporation
Answer:	: I dont think it is Counterfeit. I just purchased this and I got results immediately. I only used a little bit of 1 tube on Monday night and Tuesday morning I saw dead or almost dead bugs all over my kitchen. More then I thought were even present. On Tuesday I saw more dead bugs and even less on Wed. I saw 1 tiny one on Wed, and today I have not seen any so far. I do know that I watched plenty of videos on Youtube about different products and several on this product and decided to go with this. I would recommend based on my experience. I would say go to Youtube and see those reviews and how to apply it. I learned quite a bit and followed those instructions. I also think that some people may not see results that they want because they dont apply it again for the babies that will be born to eat. If the bugs that are already alive eat all of the bait then there is not any left for the born babies that come later that are protected in the sac thing. My plan is to reapply every 7 days for a month. This particular one does not have the growth regulator in it so that is why I will reapply for any babies. So I would say buy it. Look at Youtube first to see the reviews and how they say to apply it. You have to use small little drops and not spread it big or in a line. If you do bugs tend to avoid it according to the exterminator guy on Youtube. if it does not work for you return it and try the other brand that starts with a V. Advion got better reviews though but the 1 with that starts with V does have the growth regulator. This is only the first week. I live in a condo and have never had bugs before until recently so I will come back and update by review to see how it is working but so far I recommend this company and this vendor. This is long but I hope this helps.
Question:	can they be set at different angles? #2 What about the guarantee? Hot Shot bug bombs were worthless, did nothing to the roaches, none dead
Answer:	Works for All Roach species. Depends what you mean by Waterbug. If you are taking about the bugs on water then no.
Question:	i am pretty disgusted" with the directions.....i want to use this and do you take it out of the black container? it falls out when you pull the tab
Answer:	Not anymore . Syngenta now has to authorize all sellers of their products . Amazon blocks all sellers that are not authorized by Syngenta .
Question:	They seem to dry out very quickly, in a matter of weeks. How long are these things supposed to last
Answer:	It's questionable if it's effective for large American cockroaches, which is what I have. It's not that it wouldn't kill them; it's that American cockroaches live outside and occasionally wander in in search of food. The bait dries up and gets hard pretty quickly before they even have a chance of eating it. I can't tell if any of the bait I've put down has been touched. And it's a pain to have to keep applying fresh bait, which then dries up overnight. I think the bait stations by Combat for large roaches might be a better option. I've had success, albeit temporarily, with those in the past.

Question:	What color are the bait traps themselves? The box photo shows them as black, but the individual photo show thems as beige-like. Which is it
Answer:	I don't remember the color but I do remember the ants marched around it and not in it. It did nothing for my ant problem. I used an ant spray as our next defense and the ant problem went away. The traps didn't work for us. I don't remember the spray in detail but it very well could have been Hot Shot's ant spray. Good luck.
