    5 of 5 Stars   Buy this, whatever you do! It works!

    I can't rave enough about this stuff! I have 2 small children and seeing roaches on their bottles made me cringe! I bought this Roach Control Kit along with Maxforce 72 pack Bait Stations and I saw a few roaches in 3 days & none, yes none, in a week! I used to think reps wrote these reviews but I am an actual customer and praise these products! I still do 2 AM spot checks in the kitchen and no more roach parties! I still can't believe the roaches are actually gone! A true blessing!

    5 of 5 Stars   Go for it, you won't regret
    March 31, 2009

    I couldn't find enough reviews to help decide whether to buy it or not. I called one of the pest control companies to ask for a normal quote, and they asked for $125 for the first visit and $85 for any subsequent visit (a total of $635 in a year). So I made up my mind and decided to go for it (the Roach Control Kit #1). I applied the gel exactly as the directions said. I also placed the birth controls (Gentrol Point Source) in their proper places, and immediately after that I started seeing the big moms with their capsules on their backs. I got rid of them the same moment I saw them. In less than two weeks, I can assure you that my house is free of roaches. I know how it feels to have German roaches almost everywhere in your house. Make sure you have enough tubes. For example, it took me 4 tubes to fully apply to almost every possible roach spot in my 2-bed 2-bath apartment. I don't want to leave any chance for the roaches to get back to my apartment. Put more in the dark places and in the kitchen, also make sure you apply something beneath the carpets. Also, check the places where you put it in after 4 days and get rid of the dead roaches. My advice, $57.90 wont hurt your budget, but definitely will hurt the roaches.

    5 of 5 Stars   Easy to use and effective
    November 4, 2008
    Verified Purchase

    The 20 Gentrol Point Source stations with IGR were very easy to activate and easy to place throughout my apartment. The convenient adhesive pads made placing the stations on vertical surfaces also quite easy. These stations along with the 4 syringes of gel are an effective control system for my cockroach problem. I highly recommend Roach Control Kit #1.

    5 of 5 Stars   Good Stuff
    July 8, 2010
    Verified Purchase

    I received the order quickly and followed the instructions provided. The quantity of the product was more than enough for multiple applications. I have not seen any of the smaller (German) roaches since I applied the product primarily in the kitchen and bathrooms. Have enough left to reapply again in the event they return. Very satisfied.

    5 of 5 Stars   Roach control Kit #1
    September 7, 2010
    Verified Purchase

    I bought this for a friend who moved into a new apartment with a roach problem. I bought this kit years ago (5 or 6), and I have not seen a roach since! It takes a couple of months for it to get them all, (you can see it work, the roaches born have crinkly wings) they are sterile so no new roaches are born! Once they're gone, that's it. I tried poisons, and they killed the ones you see, but it NEVER gets them all! This really works! It's great you will be amazed at how good it works! My name it Robert, and I strongly recommend this product!

    5 of 5 Stars   roach control kit #1
    August 15, 2011

    So far, so good. The roaches have been dying out and this is the first time I don't wake up in the middle of the night and see them scurrying away when I turn on the bathroom light. I also bought the Maxforce and put both gels down; the roaches in my apartment seem to like the DuPont better, I see them munching on it all the time and not so much the Maxforce. Was a good purchase, much better results than my landlord repeatedly bug bombing and then blaming me for the infestation.

    5 of 5 Stars   I'm Running Out Already
    December 27, 2010
    Verified Purchase

    First off shipping was really fast.  I put this stuff down and literally within two minutes the roaches were on all bait sites and the first hour about 83% of the bait from an entire tube was gone. Later on that night all the bait was gone and it look the little dot of bait I had put above my bedroom door it looked like they were fighting over it. When morning came they were belly up, dragging their bellies from the poison, it made the puff it like blow fish then you have the twitchers that are about to die, drunk ones who walk sideways, and kamikazes cause they cant quite stay on the walls no more.

    Immediately had dead roaches the next day from the gel. Not sure if the Gentrol is working but after sporadically seeing immature roaches for a few weeks after using products, I haven't seen a roach for about 3 weeks. Highly recommended for someone with a moderate German cockroach problem.

    5 of 5 Stars   Great Product, especially Advion Roach Bait Gel !!!!
    August 18, 2010
    Verified Purchase

    It works very fast. All the roaches died in three days. It's no doubt Advion takes credit for it. It has been three weeks and I never see them come back. I also use Gentrol to control roach reproduction, but one box of Gentrol is way too much, 2 out of 20 units are enough for my kitchen.

    This is my first experience with the products found in this kit. Everything is easy to use and the instructions are clear. It's only been a few weeks but I've not seen any roaches so it seems to be working. Time will tell. I'm very encouraged. This product has given me better results than anything else I've used.

    4 of 5 Stars   Works well, but needs more than one application
    August 13, 2011
    Verified Purchase

    We used this 2 weeks ago. We saw many dead roaches for the first week or so, but they are now back! Not as many as before but still full size grown roaches and enough that we will have to reorder and retreat. We had a really strong population though, so it is just going to take some time I think. I would recommend this to everyone, just be aware that heavy infestations will need treatment more than once

    this has got to be your best selling item if only people would try it I did and I will personally would recomend it to anyone who asks. I used it and when I got up the next morning my floor was COVERED with dead or dying roaches. It has been a week now and they are still falling I have tried Raid and even a professional company and they did not work as well as this did. It has not been long enough for the Gentrol Point Source to work yet.

    I bought this kit along with the Trapper LTD glue boards and I received it way faster than was expected. I put all of the products out before I went to work that night. When I got home the next morning, all I can say is WOW!!! The kitchen floor was completely covered with dead roaches. This was a week ago, and every morning is the same thing. Sweeping and mopping every morning LOL. I will be purchasing all of my pest control needs from DoMyOwnPestControl.com. Thank you so much DoMyOwnPestControl for your amazing products.

    5 of 5 Stars   Amazing!!!
    June 4, 2012

    My daughter lives in a ground level apartment with the trash container right against her kitchen wall. I moved in with her for a while so that I could work a contract job in the area. Let me tell you that her roach invasion was absolutely disgusting. If I dared to set my coffee cup down for a minute I always had to check for baby roaches or worse in my cup before I took a sip. Ewww. I slept on the couch and many times woke up to a roach crawling over me! Ack! Walking into the kitchen at anytime was a skin crawling nightmare. With my first paycheck I ordered Roach Control Kit #1. We didn't want the powder to make a liquid spray because of pet turtles and children. I placed the Advion gel in appropriate places and the Gentrol in approximately 3 places. We immediately noticed dying roaches and then later ones with crinkled wings. I refreshed the gel once or twice before I moved out of the apartment. Now I'm back at the apartment six months later. My daughter did not reapply anything during the six months and amazingly there is not a single freaking roach anywhere at all. None. Period. Wow! I have plenty of product left over for when we move to a new place. This was the best $57.90 I have ever spent in my life. Thank you so very much. I have recommended this site to everyone I know and implicitly trust the products offered here. Buy it!!! You won't regret it.

    5 of 5 Stars   AMAZING RESULTS
    June 27, 2012

    Watched the great instructional video to treat for roaches from this company a couple of times, bought this kit and the professional bait gun, and NO MORE ROACHES. It was easy and it worked! I know I saved a bundle of money doing it myself and got professional results. My order arrived neatly packaged and complete in a couple of days, and when I called your company with a question or two I always got a live person who could answer my questions immediately. GREAT SERVICE WITH GREAT PRODUCT! Watch out mosquitoes ...you're next.

    I waited for several weeks to write this review thinking that nothing could be this effective and that the roaches-the small, hard to get rid of ones around my dishwasher and stove would be back. I first used the gel around the stove and dishwasher and started seeing dead bugs, then when I went out of town, I put two Gentrol disks in the kitchen. Amazingly, I have not seen a live roach in the kitchen since. I highly recommend you try this!

    5 of 5 Stars   Reviewing again,9 months later
    May 16, 2012

    This stuff is AWESOME! I had a really bad infestation, it was disgusting and I had tried just about everything to get rid of the roaches. I was desperate! I finally saw this stuff, and although a little pricey, it WORKS! At this point I have seen probably 5 roaches total, and most of the time they look pretty messed up from the effects of the bait. I am going to buy this kit again since I have seen a few in the last couple weeks and I want to be covered, but this has seriously performed a miracle. It is the only reason I am still living in this apartment!

    5 of 5 Stars   I was looking for something that worked
    February 9, 2012

    I had a real problem with my apartment. At the time that I purchased the kit everytime I walked into the kitchen during the night when i turned on the lights i would see 5-6 roaches run around and I would see roaches in other parts of the house. I called and was advised to purchase kit #1. The day that I applied i saw increased activity which i expected(that is what the others had said) and in a couple of days everything cleared up to the point that I would see 1 roach a week that was discolored. It has been a month since I applied and in the past 2 weeks have not seen anything

    This is not a fake review. I'm a real mom terrified to use pesticides around my small children. For 15 years we have suffered a roach infestation and though I tried a lot of different items (including many pesticides!) nothing really worked. We even bombed the entire house only to walk back in and see them crawling around like they owned the place. Finally I found this website and bought this product. I didn't even use the Gentrol, just the Advion. I can't believe what happened. I only put a few little dots out so I could see if it worked at all before I laid out $60 of product only to be disappointed again. All night long the first night, I would sneak into the kitchen with a flashlight and every spot was covered with roaches. They didn't just eat it. They STRADDLED it. I kept replenishing the spots and even put new spots out. The roaches wouldn't even move while I was adding to their feed pile! Just one little dot here and there. I monitored it like this for about a week and soon learned where the "hot spots" were. Every day I swept the floor. Not a lot on the floor, just 10 or 15 or 20. But we swept the floor several times a day! I took a long time to write this review because I really didn't believe they wouldn't come back. I still don't quite believe it but it's been about 6 months. Here's some really good news....I only used one tube. No kidding, I still have 3 tubes left! I not only recommend this product, I will call you a MORON if you don't buy it. What a wonderful roach-free home we have now. I even leave food out on the counter at night sometimes and never fear.

    5 of 5 Stars   ROACH CONTROL KIT #1
    October 16, 2012
    Verified Purchase

    I allowed other people to bring items to my home to do a combined large yard sale. As a result I wound up with roaches and have been fighting the problem over several months. I have tried professionals treating my home at great expense and also do it myself bombings. All to no avail. Using this roach control kit, along with the professional gun I purchased along with it, as well as boric acid, for the first time I feel I have the situation under control. I will continue to treat my home every few weeks until I have gone a whole month without seeing any roaches. These products have been wonderful and I finally feel I have my home back. THANK YOU!
