Reviews

Reviews about the smoke bomb are left on forums where the issues of combating cockroaches are discussed. They are not always positive.

I bought a quiet evening from cockroaches. Smoke the whole apartment, stink caught up a month in advance. Not all smoke kills prusakovquickly loses properties. To destroy the entire population, you need to poison at least 4 times per month. Weak for cockroaches.

Maxim, Tver

To fight cockroaches, I bought a Raptor aquafumigator. The infection was moderate. Poison smoke bomb 3 times a month. I like that you do not need to be present directly at the pest control. By efficiency, it can be compared with aerosols. The instant effect is quick, no prolonged. Within a month I got rid of the Prusaks.

Irina, Moscow

In the basement he poisoned cockroaches with the FAS sulfuric smoke bomb. Excellent tool for non-residential premises. Set, set fire, left. After 2 hours, he opened the door for ventilation. Spent 2 treatments with a break of 10 days. I got rid of insects and overcame mold.

Ilya, Voronezh

The effectiveness of the use of smoke bombs increases significantly with an integrated approach to the destruction of cockroaches. Maintain cleanliness, eliminate loopholes, close cracks, repair taps, stick up poison bait. Bring out the Prusaks at a time, not even one will allow the most effective drug. Poison does not pass through the membrane. To consolidate the result, it is necessary to process the apartment again after 10-14 days.

    Smoke is a good thing. But use in the apartment is inconvenient, dangerous. This is for basements, porches, cellars. Our neighbors poisoned us, we nearly lost our apartments. Not so set the saber, a fire began. They sat on a bench, watched the smoke in the window, until they saw black clubs. We went in - linoleum began to burn, and put on a brick.
