Hot Shot 95789 Mini Ultra Liquid Roach bait, contains 6 Case Pack of 1 multicoloured

I was you once. I scrolled through Amazon looking for effective roach bait, scrutinizing reviews like a lawyer reading cases, trying method after method to get rid of my non-paying roach roommates. I'm telling you now, GET THIS PRODUCT! In the light of transparency, I'm going to share my story. My husband and I moved into our first apartment together, a cheap and near-dilapidated two-story property in the San Fernando Valley. When I say near-dilapidated, imagine sinking 3 inches into your floor every time you take a step due to water damage. Our downstairs neighbor was the suspected roach collector. I'm a clean person who enjoys living vicariously through HGTV. Imagine my horror when we saw our first cockroach sauntering about the apartment, saying, "You guys are nasty and I'm going to walk on you in the middle of the night." Immediately, we contacted our Slumlady, and the vendors were there to spread Advion Roach Gel all over our kitchen cabinets and bathroom. To this day, I'm not sure if Advion is supposed to kill roaches or invite them into your home, because all it did was feed their wicked appetite. I'll never forget cooking a meal, walking to my desk (sinking every step of the way), looking back, and seeing 4 roaches climbing into my pot for their share. We tried foggers, more gel, more work order tickets. On two separate occasions in our one-year lease, vendors came to spray the building, but to no avail. I'm sure that the walls were more roach than plywood. Finally, like you, I was found in my bed, shaking and crying, looking for someone - anyone - to have conquered what I was going through in these Amazon reviews. HotShot is cheap, I had tried everything else, and I gave it a go. There's no tubes, no prep, no laundry list of instructions; just take the tabs off and put them down. We placed one under the sink, one behind the fridge, next to the trash, one in the cabinets, one by the toilet, and one next to our tub. First day, I saw slowly suffering roaches crawling about the floor. Second day, only dead roaches. Third day on, nothing. Well, every once in a while, I'd see a baby, far from innocent, crawling towards a trap. I can accept that in dilapidated Los Angeles apartments with mentally questionable neighbors that roaches are an inevitability. I can accept the merciless killing of a mindless baby roach every now and then. But I cannot accept these roaches walking into my pot of delicious fettuccine in broad daylight. In an apartment, HotShot can't fumigate your whole building, but it can keep the unwanted visitors out of your unit. Get it now.

I’m really impressed with this Hot Shot Ultra Liquid Roach Bait! It’s super convenient to use and makes dealing with unwanted roaches so much easier. I love that the bait stations are ready to use, so there’s no complicated setup or mess. The compact design makes it easy to place in different areas where roaches may be a problem without taking up much space. Having 6 bait stations in the pack is also great because you can place them in multiple areas at once. I’ve been very happy with the results and love having an easy solution on hand for keeping my home protected. Easy to use, convenient, effective, and definitely worth having around.

So helpful. This is by no means a replacement for a professional pest control treatment, but if you have a very mild infestation, these, combined with IGR discs or spray, will help immensely. I went from seeing 2-3 per day to seeing maybe one per 2-3 months. Only one other piece of advice- when you peel the top off where it covers the liquid, maybe peel it on a counter or something stable- the liquid will pour out like an overfull cup.

I have been battling a massive roach infestation so put out 10 of these in my kitchen, and yes, they kill roaches very quickly. There are different age/size roaches from nymphs to larger nymphs to subadults. This kills mostly these younger roaches, not so much the adults, although I have seen some adults also die from this. Perhaps the adults start avoiding these bait stations after a while? Idk, but with my level of infestation, yes, absolutely this kills non-adults in large numbers. But I am also using gel bait and glue traps. In my case, this wasn't going to be a one week or one approach process. My level of infestation required a multi-pronged approach and after two weeks of using these three methods, I am seeing declines in the population. To get rid of them entirely requires likely another two to three weeks so ppl have to be realistic about what they can accomplish with one type of removal method.

I've tried pretty much everything - Combat gel, Advion, Gentrol, Raid, the black Combat stations. This Hot Shot liquid bait is up there with the best. Setup: Comes with 6 bait stations. You peel the top and place them. I put 2 in kitchen under sink, 1 behind fridge, 1 behind stove, 2 in bathroom. Super easy, no smell, no mess like the gel that gets everywhere. Results: Did not see instant kill like spray. First 2-3 days saw MORE activity which they say is normal - they're attracted to it. By day 5 I noticed way less. By week 2 I was only seeing dead ones. Now at 3 weeks I haven't seen a live one in the kitchen at all. Compared to Advion ($25) - this is honestly 90% as effective for half the price. The liquid seems to work better than the solid Combat stations I had before because they actually eat it. Tips: 1) Don't spray Raid near it or they won't eat it. 2) Replace after 3 months. 3) You need to clean up crumbs or they have no reason to eat bait. Cons: The station is a little bulky and you can't see how much they've eaten. I wish it had a clear window. Overall 5/5 - if you have a light to moderate german roach problem, start with this before you pay for exterminator. I'm reordering.
