- Clear the room of food debris (crumbs, drops, waste). Wipe wet areas and prevent insects from reaching moisture and food.
- In cracks, under baseboards, under furniture and appliances, on vertical surfaces, apply the gel in a thin layer, in drops, dotted or in a line. Under the sink, behind the refrigerator, near the trash can, also apply dots, between which there should be no more than 2 cm.
Important! Apply the product in minimal doses - optimally many tiny dots along lines (walls, pipelines).
1 package of gel is enough for a one-time treatment of a room up to 60 m² (75 ml tube). Repeat the treatment after 1 month (to protect against cockroaches that have just hatched or ran in from neighbors).
