Advance Cockroach Gel Bait Now Registered in New York

The new matrix, featuring the active ingredient dinotefuran, attracts both gel-averse and non gel-averse cockroaches, and it stays attractive for 30 days or more, the company said.

ST. LOUIS — Whitmire Micro-Gen’s Advance Cockroach Gel Bait is available in New York.

Advance Cockroach Gel Bait features a new bait matrix which is designed to overcome gel-aversion using different attractants than current leading gel baits. The matrix attracts both gel-averse and non-gel-averse cockroaches, and it stays attractive for 30 days or more, the company said. Advance Cockroach Gel Bait uses dinotefuran, a fast-acting, new active ingredient.

Licensed entomologist Forrest St. Aubin of Kansas-based Augustine Exterminators is one of the early believers.  “We basically eliminated a very frustrating problem. The cockroaches readily took to the product,” St. Aubin said. “The residents we spoke with were relieved, to say the least, and the apartment management company was ecstatic that they solved a problem that had been going on for months.”
