Combat Max 12 Month Roach Killing Bait Small Roach Bait Station Child-Resistant 18 Count

These little bait stations are like mousers for roaches: discreet, deadly, and shockingly efficient. I set out a couple in the usual hotspots and stopped hearing the little scuttle concerts within a day. Not glamorous, but it gets the job done — quietly and without a spray cloud of doom. Pros: Works quickly — noticeable drop in activity within 24–48 hours. Easy to place and kid/pet-safe when used as directed. Long-lasting — no constant reapplication needed. Cons: Not Instant Karma — takes a day or two to see full results. Needs placement in the right spots; won’t work if roaches avoid the station entirely. Bottom line: Practical, low-fuss roach control that actually reduces sightings fast. Five stars. Read more

used this for a german roach infestation in my car, my car was completely roach free within less than a week. doesn’t have a smell (from what i can tell), didn’t have any residue, stickiness or leakage. they are small and could definitely be placed discreetly as they just look like a little black disc. good for small spaces as well. very easy to use, while i hope i never have need for them again, i would purchase again and would recommend.

There is a noticeable smell to the product—kind of like peanut butter—but it wasn’t overwhelming. I followed the instructions and placed it in all the recommended areas. I also used borax alongside this product to ensure optimal coverage. At first, I was still seeing roaches, which was a little discouraging. After about a week, I started noticing dead roaches, so the product is definitely working. I plan to purchase it again to make sure they stay away long-term. Read more

I never write reviews, but this product really deserves one. When we moved into this apartment, I noticed some small roaches around, so I tried Maxforce gel, which had worked for me in the past. However, this time the insects were really stubborn and were everywhere in the apartment. I battled them for over a year, and my husband didn’t help much — he would leave food on the floor and on the countertop, and wouldn’t wash the dishes. I was so stressed that I once found an empty egg case in the dishwasher (which my husband never used), and I got really mad at him. Since I travel a lot on weekends, I barely had a chance to keep up with the cleaning, so the roaches were basically having a big party here. I was very concerned about my baby, so I used to take him with me when traveling. By June, I was so fed up that after being away for two weeks, I came back to a situation that was barely tolerable. The roaches were everywhere — not just at night, but during the day too! I used a Raid fogger and searched for different ways to fight the infestation. Honestly, I had read so many good reviews about this product that I figured I had nothing to lose. The price is incredibly cheap compared to professional pest control (which I don’t trust at all — especially after living with an aunt who had rats. I ended up taking control myself because their solutions were useless). Anyway, I left again and came back with the baby. After the third day, I started to worry because I found roaches in places they normally don’t show up. I was concerned that this product wasn’t working, but there was a noticeable difference — the roaches were slower than usual. Then I traveled again, and when I returned after two weeks, I saw that the mature roaches were gone, except for a few little ones that I assume had just hatched (and I expect them to be gone soon!) It’s been a month now, and I’d say that in the past week I’ve only seen two small ones — and nothing else. (Before, I used to see them constantly during the day.) I’d say this is a great solution. No need to smear paste on the walls or in the corners (which looks anything but discreet). I finally have peace of mind and can bring my baby home without feeling overwhelmed about hygiene.

I started seeing roaches in my kitchen a few weeks ago and honestly felt defeated after sprays failed to do much. I finally tried Combat Max Roach Bait, and it was a total game-changer. Within just 48 hours, I noticed several dead roaches near the bait stations, and within a week, the constant sightings completely stopped. It felt like a "miracle" compared to other products I've used in the past. The best part is how effortless it was—I just tucked the stations under my sink and behind the fridge, and they did all the heavy lifting. Because the bait is designed for roaches to share it with their nest, it wiped out the entire colony at the source rather than just killing a few on contact. I’m finally roach-free, and I love that there's no messy cleanup or nasty chemical smell lingering in my home. Read more

Works very well. After placing these traps, I noticed fewer roaches within a few days. Easy to use and very effective. Read more
