Active Ingredient:	0.01% Fipronil
Target pests:	American, Brown-banded, German, Smoky brown (Does not work with oriental roaches)
For use in:	Keep tightly capped and use within 2 years. Do not spray near baits, do not use heavy detergents or cleaners, or do not use in very dusty area. Gel will dry out and get a dry skin on top but roaches will still eat it up to a year. However, if contaminated or gone, reapply.
Application:	1 tube treats 30-120 square yards depending on infestation. Smaller, more frequent gel placements provide faster control than larger, less frequent placements.
Yield:	Good IPM program does rotate baits (bait with different active ingredient) as roaches may not be attracted to the bait matrix of what is being used anymore.
Manufactured by:	Bayer

With the broadest label available, the best bait acceptance, and virtual population elimination, it's no wonder Maxforce Roach Killer Gels are popular.

New Maxforce Roach Bait Gel with fipronil is simply irresistible to roaches. When other baits won't attract aberrant-feeding roaches, Maxforce Roach Bait Gel will. In side-by-side comparisons, Maxforce Roach Bait Gel outperformed competing brands. With a proprietary formula developed by Bayer, the new gel attracts and kills both finicky and normal roaches — even when sanitation is poor and other food sources are available. Maxforce Roach Bait Gel provides long residual and fast control of even large roaches. It's labeled for both indoor and outdoor use, including commercial kitchens.

Maxforce Roach Bait Gel has USDA authorization for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants. What's more, you can use Maxforce Gel in residential food processing areas without covering food preparation surfaces during treatment. It's also fine to use in occupied rooms of hospitals, nursing homes and extended care facilities.

To make matters worse for roaches, Maxforce's exclusive Domino Effect delayed killing action enables one contaminated roach to kill many others where they live and breed. A foraging roach will receive a lethal dose from a single feeding, but lives long enough to return to the harborage where its poisoned feces are consumed by other roaches. It's all possible with Fipronil, the active ingredient in Maxforce Roach Gel, that has no known resistance in roaches and is odor-free.

About the Accelerated Maxforce Domino Effect
Our new fast control formula still gives you superior long-term control of roaches compared to contact sprays. The new active ingredient, Fipronil, provides a unique mode of action that works through both ingestion and contact, knocking down roaches and ants that eat or simply touch the bait. Either way, one contaminated roach or ant kills many others where they live and breed. The Domino Effect still achieves population control, but with faster visible results.

Tips for Use:

* Inject Maxforce roach killer bait gel directly into small cracks, crevices and voids that harbor roaches

* Smaller, more frequent gel placements provide faster control than larger, less frequent placements.

* Store MAXFORCE Gel in a moderate termperature range. The gel will start to liquify at temperatures below -10 degrees or above 140 degrees Fahrenheit. When returned to moderate temperature, the gel will regain its normal consistency with no lost effectiveness.

* Gel may stain textiles and some porous surfaces. Place gel directly into cracks and crevices or hard-to-see areas where a stain will not cause a problem.

7 of 7 people found this review helpful:    By Anna from Bronx NY on September 14, 2008 What can I say except that if you have a roach problem this is definitely the stuff to buy. I used to dread going into my kitchen at night. As soon as I turned on the light there were roaches all over and nothing I used worked. And I used it all-- sprays, powders, bait, traps -- everything I heard of. Then I stumbled on this site and ordered Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel and Maxforce FC Roach Stations and put them both down. Well let me tell you, that was one year ago and I still have not seen any roaches and I definitely swear by this product and will swear by this product to all my friends. Use it if you have a roach because when you do you will see what I am talking about. Never use anything else... a VERY Satisfied customer. Was this review helpful to you?

5 of 5 people found this review helpful:    By Nedda from Atlanta on July 25, 2008 This is the best product me and my family ever used. It stops them the moment you put the gel down.  When I was living in an apartment complex the people that lived above me never use to empty their trash when needed. So it caused roaches in my unit- little ones and medium size. Well to make a long story short, this man was out one day, I believe he was testing the product Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel and he put some in my kitchen and he left the remaining of it with me.  I forgot that I even had more and the next day there was not one single bug or roach.  I could not believe it . So I called everyone I knew. I recommend all of Maxforce products. Was this review helpful to you?

4 of 4 people found this review helpful:    By Tammy from Bronx, New york on May 19, 2008 Trust me when I say this product works. I was afraid to go into my kitchen at night because the counter tops would be swarming with roaches. I used Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel after it was recommended to me by an exterminator and in a short time I had no more roaches. I used it once around six months ago it has been working since. I recently saw two roaches so I'll give my kitchen another application. Don't buy Raid or any of those other smelly products that don't work. This one does not smell and works 5 times better. I have two small children at home and was relieved that there were no fumes to worry about. Was this review helpful to you?

2 of 2 people found this review helpful:    By Angela from Broadview, IL on May 24, 2008 I experienced the amazing results of Maxforce FC roach bait gel getting rid of roaches over eleven years ago when I lived in an apartment. Now my family and myself will be moving to a home in Alabama that has an american roach problem. I have already ordered me some Maxforce to take with me to Alabama to get rid of the roaches. I told my husband about maxforce but he's not convinced it will rid our soon to be roach problem. He is going to be so amazed at the drastic results of maxforce. I cant wait to use it. I swear by it (as they say) and my husband soon will too. Was this review helpful to you?

2 of 2 people found this review helpful:    By Chris from Dallas, TX on November 23, 2005 Purchased three tubes of the MAXFORCE FC roach bait gel. I put out one tube on a 1400 sq. ft. house and haven't seen a roach since. This product is TOP OF THE LINE and awesome! I would recommend purchasing MAXFORCE FC from www.domyownpestcontrol.com to anyone with a roach problem. Was this review helpful to you?

1 of 1 people found this review helpful:   Do It Yourself By ian chin on May 8, 2009 Managing 54 apartment units I suppose it is somewhat inevitable someone is going to bring in some roaches that will end up infecting everyone else. First I got some Niban stuff, which worked really well for a few months. Perhaps it was because I cut open the bag on the wrong side and ended up duct taping it that the product wasn't as effective as it was before, being exposed to air/elements. I hired a pest control guy ($250!) and watched him apply the Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel. Then got the same thing and did it myself! He told me there are only 2 ways roaches get into your place: 1) from other people, and 2) from used appliances. I always thought that if you were filthy and didn't clean they would find their way to you...but I was wrong. So people, don't buy used appliances from a secondhand store!

I used the syringe and placed the Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel in the bathroom and kitchen, and wherever I saw roaches, in all of the units. I don't believe this "domino" effect claim - I would see a few die over the next couple weeks, then they would be seen again within a month. So the rate of "seen" roaches went down. I ended up hiring an exterminator who had to treat with some 4 or 5 products to actually get rid of the roaches. I saw more roaches then than I ever had seen (yes they hide from you). It took another spraying to actually get rid of the beasts (but they are back again in smaller numbers - in Texas they are all over). So this will work for a small number of roaches, but if you think you have a problem, you probably are going to need to spray / dust / and bait the place. Was this review helpful to you?

1 of 1 people found this review helpful:   By Bryan from Chicago, IL By Bryan Mason on January 3, 2010 Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel gets the job done. I've lived in a roach infested apartment for over a year. One application of this product eliminated our roach problem. I don't write reviews, but this product is too good not to express my appreciation. Was this review helpful to you?

Q  What about my cat? He eat roaches! Please tell me more about Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel. A Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel is only strong enough to kill small roaches.  There is no evidence of secondary poisoning with Maxforce or any roach products for that matter.  Remember that a roach would eat such a small amount of gel, and the gel only contains .01% of active ingredient. There is no way that it would cause your cat to be sick.  Although the thought of eating roaches makes even us feel a little sick!

Q  Can I get Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel at any store in Baltimore, md? A No, Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel is a professional product and is not sold over the counter.  It can only be purchased online.  We do have Free Shipping on all orders, and we do take check/money orders if you happen to not have a credit card.

Q  How good does Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel work on German Roaches? I have a rental property and this is the worst pest we have to try to get rid of. A The Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel is our most popular roach control product for the last 5 years.  It is proven to be a very good measure of control for roaches.  As with any pest problem though you need to have the cooperation of the tenants as far as keeping the kitchen area clean, no dishes in the sink overnight, trash taken out when it should, counters and floor cleaned and swept, etc.  This product is a food bait that will attract the roaches to eat it, but it will only work if there is not other human food for it to compete with.  For best results or bad roach problems you should use our roach control kit.  It comes with a newer roach gel that also works very well along with two other products that when used together provides excellent results for eliminating roaches.

Q  I read that your Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel will get rid of the Palmetto bugs that have come into my house. Is it true? A Yes, the Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel is labeled for American Roaches, which are typically called Palmetto bugs or Water bugs.  Although the bait will kill an American roach if it eats it, 99% of the time these American Roaches come from the outside and can be prevented by spraying the outside perimeter of the home.  This way they do not get inside at all, and if they do make it inside they will be dead or close to it when you find them from walking across the outside protective barrier.  If you only use roach bait first of all they have to find it and also the roach bait is a delayed reaction and will take much longer than if they walked across a spray you have applied that will start working right away.  This being said, if you are interested in protecting your home from the outside where they are, our most popular product for that is Demon WP.  It is a powder that you mix in a one gallon sprayer with water and apply all around the home 2-3 feet up onto the house, and 2-3 feet out onto the ground.  It is safe around children and pets and can even be used inside the home where you have a problem with any pests.  It will not only keep roaches out, but all other insects as well.  It should be applied every 30 days for best results.

Q  How long is Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel active for? A The Maxforce line of Roach and Ant Gels can be stored for up to two years at room temperature if they are unopened.  Once the Maxforce FC Roach Bait Gel is opened it needs to be used within 1 year.  After 1 year the gel will become stale and ineffective.
