Once I saw four.I purchased this gel and put a little on my old plastic car recovery cards. One under the washing machine, under the fridge, under the free standing cooker, another two elsewhere around the kitchen floor.I cannot believe the next morning I did not see a single one. And the next morning and the next morning. It's been two weeks and have not seen a single one dead or alive.Could they have gone, I asked myself. So Just to make sure, I have walked into the kitchen several times late at night & switched the light on. No, nothingFor me, this gel has worked in an unbelievably amazing way. It's true if you put it on the wall it will run down. But that's no reason to give it poor review. That's not a problem with the gel. It's the way it is. If you want to put it on the wall, then we have to stick something horizontal on the wall & put the get on that.If you have had enough of these creatures running around your floor, then, I would say this gel has worked wonders for me. I can't see why it would not work for you.If you want to get rid of these pests, It's worth getting this, even though it's a little expensive. Worth every pennyThank you to the manufacture

5.0 out of 5 stars Got rid of pests

I've managed to fix my issue. Unfortunately, got this from a family member that had a worse problem, and due to the price per 60ml this gel would be too expensive to fix the problem. Hopefully there will be options to buy in bulk in the future.

I ordered this because it was cheap and would arrive quickly. I wanted to take action fast once I realised the problem I had was these little pests.As others have said, it is difficult to deploy effectively due to the watery texture. What I will say is that within a day or 2 of application before some stronger stuff arrived, I did find one or two dead or disorientated roaches, and you can be sure there were more I didn't see.Nobody gets rid of cockroaches overnight, and if you think you have you're in for a shock next month when they return stronger. This gel alone certainly won't either, as applying it to difficult to reach corners like you need to is near impossible cos it just runs. This gel alone will not solve your problem, but it will provide some relief - and for the price, that's good enough. If you need to wait for payday or simply can't get things moving fast enough otherwise, it's a good interim buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally roaches gone!

C. · 6 July 2018

At some point last year we somehow got a nasty invasion of roaches in our flat (which makes it double hard to exterminate, as even when you make the flat spotlessly clean, if your neighbours don't... well... roaches will find their way back to you).We tried a lot of different products - started with the sprays (yes, they kill them on the spot - but the nest remains). Traps. Various powders they were supposed to carry on their feet to their nest. Fumigation that was supposed to reach the nest. NOTHING made significant difference. There would sometimes be fewer of them, but they just kept coming back, and even when we thought it was better, suddenly we would still see one appearing out of nowhere.I was beginning to really lose hope, but this product had great reviews so as last-ditch attempt we got this, put little blobs of it (on little sticky notes) all over the apartment (mostly on the floor), and we waited. First few days not much of a difference, but then we started seeing some of them dead on the floor, or sometimes in clearly not good shape (crawling slowly, or on their backs trying to move to normal position). Any survivors we zapped with a spray - but after a few weeks there were none left, and I think finally we reached the neighbours' nests too.This has been a few months ago and, touch wood, still none appear. And if they do, at least I won't lose any time with other methods but get a tube of this again.By the way, one tube will be more than enough for AGES. I'd have to buy a new one only because we put it somewhere in a way that it leaked. So be careful about that, otherwise it's brilliant.

I first used this on Oct 10th 2017, and it's just under 3 weeks since then and I haven't seen a roach in over a week, so I think they've been wiped! :))The property next door is very large and very old and they started a huge renovation which I think is what drove these roaches in to my house, as I'd never seen any before in all the years I've lived here.I put a little of this gel in empty tealight tins and on strips of card, and replenished every few days for a couple of weeks (the instructions aren't very clear on how much to use - I put little puddles in the tealights and dabs on the card and placed them around my kitchen (in the boiler cupboard, behind kickboards, in corners of worktops).After the first few days I panicked, as I'd gone from occassionally seeing one bug at a time to seeing a few tiny baby roaches at a time, and I did wonder if it was just attracting them! After the first week this stopped, then I found a few dead roaches over the course of the next week, and 3 weeks since first use I haven't seen any in over a week. I think it's safe to say they're all gone at this point.There's loads of gel in this 60ml, I used less than a quarter but good to know I have it if they return!Seconding what others have said, design of the tube isn't great so have some kitchen roll handy for when you open the cap, but as a remedy to get rid of roaches this has done the job!
