Max force
By Linda on 12/14/2014
This product WORKS. I have done only two application so far and I can honestly say that I will purchase it again just to make sure the bugs stay gone. I had been paying for a very well know pest control company that had done nothing compared to this. I have canceled the company and saved hundreds of dollars. I can't praise it enough. Max force is an answer to a prayer!

This is great stuff! if it weren't for some stubborn bugs who just didn't take the bait, I would be rating this a 5. I love this website, it's the best, super fast shipping and wonderful rates. I'm on my third order in 3 weeks, because my neighbors needed some maxforce. I love the business cards that come with each order, I carry them with me just incase i meet someone in need of pest control...

Pretty good stuff
By Cindy on 02/03/2015
This is the second time I have used this product. The first time was several years ago I lived in a single wide trailer and it completely wiped out the roach population. After trying numerous store bought products this did the trick. In 3 days I was roach free and continued to be for 3 years. I have now moved into a duplex and found that I had roaches here. I bought Maxforce again. This time it has greatly reduced the population but I am still seeing some come in. It has gone from my kitchen being completely overrun at night to just 3 or 4 a day. I believe they are coming from next door. I will get Demon next and see if I can prevent them from coming in. I think with the combination of the two I should stop seeing bugs soon.
Expert response:
We are glad you've had success with your treatment so far. We see that you have ordered the Demon WP, as well. Just be sure not to spray directly on top of or where you will place your baits: the general rule is to spray LOW and bait HIGH.
You can also add an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) to your treatment program, especially if you realize you're primarily seeing smaller roaches. An IGR is like birth control for bugs: it interrupts the breeding cycle to support your insecticide applications. You can buy an IGR such as Gentrol Concentrate that you can actually add to your Demon WP spray and apply at the same time: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/gentrol-igr-concentrate-p-211.html.

Good but not great....
By Latashia on 09/07/2013
Okay....Roaches were starting to become a problem so I started searching for long term solutions...a google search led me to Fipronil which led me here. I tried everything before now and they seemed to just get worse so I said what the heck and bought two tubes. I was impressed by day 3 seeing no roaches but by week 2, I started to see them again so I applied another treatment, again no roaches....now it's a waiting game to see if more come again. I gave it 4 stars because even though it does effectively kill the roaches, it doesn't wipe them out. I do believe that it's worth the price and after I ordered, I received it quickly. If you have a roach problem, it is worth a try and if you follow directions carefully, it will really reduce the problem. So this is why I say it's good not great!!!

Worked well on a very minimal infestation.
By Donna on 05/26/2014
As soon as I applied it I saw 2 or 3 dead ones. I only just started to see them, had about 4 ( 2 adults, 2 tiny ones) within a month's time and that was enough for me. Too much. I had not seen any for weeks, but I recently saw one adult very much alive. I don't know if it had the chance to eat the bait, but I killed it anyway. Then another dead one, so I think it is still working. I live in an apartment, the adjoining one I was told was quite infested last year. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I refuse to live with roaches
By Dorothy on 12/04/2021
I managed an apartment complex that was infested with roaches. We tried several exterminating companies and treated each apartment every month but the roaches were still there. In my opinion and experience, it was a total waste of time and money. The company name at that time was Blue Diamond. We had them treat the entire complex and I do mean EVERYTHING, It was amazing. within a month the roaches were gone. Be sure to order enough to treat every room thoroughly. Take drawers out of chests, treat underneath furniture, electric outlets etc. etc. I am not convinced that Magnetic Roach Bait is the same but It is the most effective product I have found. Like I said, I REFUSE TO LIVE WITH ROACHES. With this product, I don't have to.

Good price, expiration date missing.
By Tolga on 05/22/2012
I am very happy with the timely shipping and low price of the product. My only concern is the expiration date, I could not find any exp date written on the product.
Expert response:
Pest control products do not contain expiration dates. The product is good until you open it and then it is good for one year in the tube, and 30 days once you have applied the gel.

Great product when applied monthly in multi-unit homes.
By Jess on 08/31/2012
Just moved into a duplex. The neighbors are disgusting and had let the roaches get completely out of control. When we told the LL about the infestation, it was news to him. His solution was to set off a fogger (didn't work) and put down boric acid (didn't work). So we ordered the Maxforce FC Magnum bait. Within about a week, we were no longer seeing roaches. A couple of weeks after application, we started seeing baby roaches again, and figured they would just get into the same gel as their predecessors. They didn't, and within a month, we were seeing adults again, though nowhere near as bad as before. Put down the other half of the tube today, and hoping that will control them a little better. Without our neighbors' cooperation, I doubt that we'll be able to totally eradicate them, but this product has been very helpful in controlling the problem.

This Is Working Too
By Honesty on 10/13/2018
Using this with Demon, Vendetta Plus, and Cimexa for awful roach issue. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Bc had used Advion and Compare N Save concentrate (bifetherin)...and I think I had a bait adverse issue. They plain didn't like Advion, or it was old. I'm one of the rare ones it didnt work for. And the Spray alone can old do but so much. Put this and Vendetta Plus out at the same time. Refreshed every 3-5 days. In kitchen and bathroom. Counters, drawers and cabinets. On pieces of cardboard in cabinets. Did baseboard treatment with Demon spray all over the house, and Cimexa in nookies and crannies all over. We are seeing major results. I'm so happy.

Maxforce FC Magnum review
By Rc on 09/01/2010
Have used this product in the past after introduced to it by our local professional pest control company who also sprays around our house for water bugs. Your product seems to work okay and hopefully will do a lot to do away with the nests of bugs beyond our sights. It seems easy and safe to use. Will order it again in the future.

Maxforce Magnum
By Javier on 06/12/2020
great product!
By Gissel on 03/15/2014
Great product! As soon as I used a little roach came out to eat it :) I used Advion along with it. Its been about 2 weeks and I haven't seen any more roaches, and the ones I saw were dying. I didn't have a heavy infestation, so I wouldn't know how it would work on a heavy infestation.

This stuff is Amazing!
By Christine on 05/09/2011
I used this product and after only three days, I could only see a few pests here and there. They were literally dropping like flies! I will definitely recommend this to anyone who has a roach problem, big or little. Thanks MaxForce!

kill, kill, kill the roaches!
By No on 11/20/2017
background: i live in a condo in toronto, about 5 years ago we started seeing roaches. Probably some tenant that was a renter brought them in since about 2010ish they started letting renters in our a nice condo where before you actually had to buy the unit or put a down payment and pay it off. No matter what we did these roaches came back or always had a presence. Management would bring in exterminators periodically but i can guarantee you they used the cheapest bait since they did the whole building, results were minor to mild in effectiveness. Fastword to now: Since i live in Canada i paid around $55 CAD for two tubes, $25 of which was shipping and handling since this stuff isnt available in Canada and i had to procure it from a seller in Austin Texas. Results: in two days ive counted more than 50 dead roaches (mostly babies), i dotted nearly the entire unit where they would likely hide and come out in the day and im seeing results. Maxforce Magum is fantastic, it works and im surprised how quick the results are showing. I wonder how much dead roaches there are within the hard to reach and unseen places? Hopefully a lot, and hopefully the infected but not dead roaches spread the poison around. Issues: the only problem i have with this stuff is how quick the product dries out. Also, i read that you'd need to change your gel/bait and rotate to see maximum results because these buggers always build up a resistance. GREAT PRODUCT EITHER WAY. I have one tube unopened and i'll be using it within a couple of weeks to get the new hatch-lings that haven't tried the bait yet. 4/5.
does work just takes time

Control of Roaches,Spiders, Ants
By Glema on 09/21/2012
I find this product to be as helpful as the ones that they proffessional people use when they come to spray on a monthly or quarterly basis. It is clean and easy to use and last longer than any other that I have used in the past. It is easy to apply leaves no odor.
Very effective - but doesn't come with a plunger!

German Roaches
By Dre on 05/15/2020
I applied this product in spots throughout cabinet under the sink and behind the fridge. I believe these roaches got in through an insta cart delivery. I would say that they are 95% gone. I recommend using in conjunction with glue traps to determine your main area of activity.

Good Stuff
By Anon on 01/29/2021
Maxforce FC Magnum seems to working. I laid it down just as they advised. I watched a video they had on Youtube about another roach "food" and how they placed it then followed that advice. In about 2 days the roach traffic seemed to be less but I was still seeing a few. It's been 2 weeks now and a number of days have gone by this week without seeing any. Fingers crossed that this is it. I did use this with the Gentrol Point Source as recommended. I'll be rotating the food to another product to ensure this keeps the little buggers away.
Didn't want to use it but had to
By Tan on 10/04/2021
I came back from a hotel and bought some unwanted guests. Who knew at some of the best Hotels they also have unwelcomed visitors. Well, after seeing 4 brown bugs in my kitchen, I knew that my home was infested. So I begun using Maxforce FC Magnum; After 2 weeks I haven't seen any more but I an not stopping until a month is completed.
