    I'm not sure what happen.

    By Leslie on 03/31/2017

    I'm not sure what happen.... the first time I used this product, there were dead bugs everywhere. I ordered some more (cause the bugs came back ) but it didn't do good. I've probably seen 3 or 4 dead bugs.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    If you have been using the same roach bait for an extended amount of time, then it is possible for the roaches to become averse to the bait, meaning they basically get tired of the same food. This is why our Roach Control Kits are set up in Rotation A, B, and C with different baits in each kit. These kits also include residual spray and an Insect Growth Regulator for a complete roach treatment: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/roach-control-kits-c-2_73.html We also have a great Roach Treatment Guide here: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-roaches-a-458.html

    Advion Roach Bait Gel

    By Linda on 05/24/2016

    Loved the product the first time I used it one year ago. Roaches ran to eat it. This year I bought the product again but results were disappointing. Roaches ignored gel. Didn't think they could get used to product with only one use last year. Adding enticements with it such as honey, etc.

    I know people love this stuff but...

    By April on 11/12/2014

    Verified Purchase

    It just has not been all that for me. This stuff seems to knock them back temporarily, but does not last. I have purchased the boxes. I have blobs of the gEl encrusted everywhere around my house, but am getting no lasting relief. I am hoping some of the borax solutions from youtube are going to work. Also goin to try Demon Residual skyway for issue.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    If you have an established roach population, then we would also recommend using a residual spray such as Demon WP and an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) such as Gentrol Point Source Stations for the fastest, most complete control: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/gentrol-point-source-p-51.html Please see our article How to Get Rid of Roaches for more tips: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-german-roaches-a-245.html

    false advertising-Not better

    By Ronald on 08/30/2016

    Not working as expected. Not much better than Raid brand products. Doesn't attract roaches as advertised. Save your dollars and buy Raid. Very disappointed

    Roach Gel

    By Gloria on 11/18/2014

    Verified Purchase

    I used Advion Roach Gel about 6 months ago and it worked in 3 days roaches gone. Just put out more of it a week ago and still got roaches, I think i got a bad or weak supply, cause it does not seem to be working as well this time.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    If you have been using the same bait continually for several months, then it is possible for roaches to breed resistance to the bait, so you would need to rotate baits. A good bait to rotate with Advion would be Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/maxforce-fc-roach-bait-gel-p-52.html. Also, if you have an established roach population, then it may take several bait applications to work through the population. We would also recommend using an Insect Growth Regulator in conjunction with roach baits, such as the Gentrol Point Source Stations: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/gentrol-point-source-p-51.html You may also see our article How To Get Rid of Roaches for more tips for successful roach treatments: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-german-roaches-a-245.html

    Doesn't work

    By Nnjay on 01/03/2020

    Set all around, used two full tubes and no difference whatsoever. Waited a week, it's the same. I'm disappointed that half the product has been used to no effect, waste of money.

    Worked on first application but not the 2nd or 3rd

    By Leonard on 10/26/2019

    After applying it the first time it wiped out. 75% of the roaches but have applied it twice since then and it isn't killing them anymore just slows down their activity for a couple days.

    Advion

    By Treva on 09/27/2019

    The first time I bought Advion from a different company it was fantastic. That company has gone out of business so I used this company. I didn't see any dead roaches and they are crawling around as freely as ever. Alcohol works better. I wouldn't recommend buying this product.

    First time did wonders, 2nd not so much...

    By Lily on 05/26/2020

    I bought this product about 5 years ago and it worked wonders, I repurchased 2 months ago, and it's only killing a few, I'm not sure if I got a bad batch, but it's just not doing the job.

    advion

    By Mike on 10/23/2020

    used in years past and recently purchase again. Roaches do not seem to be attracted to it now. Bait stations look the same as when I applied it. Ordered a different brand and will see what happens.

    Advion Roach Bait Gel

    By Joy on 07/06/2016

    Product doesn't seem to be working as it should. I have used as directed in every room in my house that I saw roaches and I am still seeing 1 or 2 here and there. May have to try a different product.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    Please be sure to read our Roach Guide to learn how to eliminate roaches completely. In most cases you will need to use more than bait to eliminate them : http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-roaches-a-458.html

    Skepital about product performance

    By George on 11/26/2015

    Early fall seen a few roaches here and there I was concerned about having an infestation so I ordered this product and used as directed around problem areas.have been using the product for about a month now and I occasionally see one here and there as before the bait doesn't appear to be eaten so I'm assuming I don't have a real problem that it's only a few strays that have come indoors to find shelter from the cold ..so it's hard to say if the product works or not..

    Didn't work like I thought

    By Katherine on 10/22/2021

    I used this several years ago and it worked great. I don't know if they changed the ingredients but it did not do well this time.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    It is always recommended to rotate baits every 3-4 months if you still need to treat as roaches can develop a resistance and best to use a combination of products to eliminate roaches. We have a guide below that can help https://www.domyown.com/how-to-get-rid-of-roaches-a-458.html

    It doesn't work

    By Lindsey on 10/02/2020

    A friend recommended me this product, she said it worked really good and that the roaches would be gone in less then a week. looked at the reviews and it looked like the product really did work. So I decided to buy it and I was super happy. It actually worked ! I didn't see any roaches for over a year! When the roaches slowly started to come back I bought another one but this time it didn't work! The roaches would eat part of the bait and the rest was dried up. I called and they said I had to apply all 4 tubes. I thought of giving it another chance and put all four tubes but again it didn't work. The roaches would take the bait but they would still come back and it looks like they are reproducing faster. I don't know what to do, because these roaches are really annoying and I had high hopes for it. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

    Does not work

    By Hongru on 10/29/2021

    The bait does not work for Cockroaches in my home. After two weeks, I indeed saw 3 dead cockroaches but that is it. Cockroaches are still everywhere.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    We apologize if expectations are not as expected. When dealing with roaches you will not always see the dead ones around as they will die wherever they die, typically in wall voids/harborage areas where there are others. It can also take a few weeks to a month or more even to get complete control of roaches. Depending on the level of infestation and products being used. We have a great guide below that explains how to effectively eliminate roaches for the best treatment https://www.domyown.com/how-to-get-rid-of-roaches-a-458.html

    Advion

    By Crystal on 12/07/2016

    I read alot of reviews before I bought this stuff and everyone made it out to what it's not. It does not work!! It's a waste of money in my opinion. I won't use this product ever again

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    Thank you for your comments! How quickly and effectively roach bait gel works will depend a lot upon factors like sanitation (eliminating competing food and water sources), how large the population is, and whether we are using enough bait for the population. Please take a few moments to review our Roach Treatment Guide for more information on how to implement a successful roach treatment program. Please let us know if we can further assist you any time! http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/how-to-get-rid-of-roaches-a-458.html
