Maxforce FC Select Cockroach Bait Gel
	When controlling cockroaches, Venus Pest Company combines several approaches including the application of Maxforce FC Select Cockroach Gel. Maxforce FC Select Cockroach Gel uses fipronil as an active ingredient. Fipronil is also used as the active ingredient for FrontLine, a flea spot on treatment for pets. Use 4-6 bait points per 100 square feet of area. Each bait point should be 0.25-0.5 grams (1/8-1/4 inch diameter) in size. $44 per box. Each box contains 4 30-gram syringes.

Maxforce Fine Granular Bait
	In addition to using Maxforce FC Select Cockroach Gel for roach control, Venus Pest Company uses Maxforce Fine Granular Bait. Maxforce Fine Granular bait is effective against roaches, ants, and crickets. It should be applied in cracks and crevices where cockroaches hide. $18.50 (USD) per 10 oz bottle.

Borid Boric Acid Dust
	Venus Pest Company often uses Borid boric acid dust in combination with bait to control cockroaches. Boric acid is a natural insecticide that is less toxic than table salt. Borid should be applied under sinks and in cracks and crevices where bait could not be applied. Borid should only be applied as a very fine dust. Visible piles of Borid will be avoided by insects. Borid is also effective in controlling silverfish. $7.50 per 1 lb bottle.
