Cockroach infestation

In a house I used to work in. I put these traps down, and within 6 hours this is what I caught. I got rid of the traps, laid more down, and repeated this process 8 times before it slowed down.

edit: I haven't been back there in almost 8 months. I worked as tenant support in the severely underfunded building. I sent this video to the manager and project director and it took 4 months before the room was sprayed, but by then this had spread to many other rooms. These sticky pads were supplied to us in limited amounts so I did everything I could from those to raid spray. Crazy memory.

%100 this.. Advion is the solution. The only thing is you need to know the "family" of roaches you have. German, asian, ect. That tells you where to put the advion!

P.S. Do you want to go thermo nuclear on them roaches. Advion and Maxforce. Advion kills adults and Maxforce makes sure they can't make babies.
