A new cockroach gel, which is the first product ever which claims to also control grey silverfish, will be unveiled at BPCA's pest management event of the year, PPC Live, in March.

746 bayer new cockroach and silverfish gel bait

Bayer say the multi-use gel contains a new active ingredient, clothianidin, and remains active for up to 12 months, offering pest controllers a long-lasting solution.

Tim Peeling, professional pest solutions product manager at Bayer, says that Maxforce Platin® offers a unique tool for pest controllers to manage cockroach and silverfish infestations.

“It’s perfect for sensitive environments, such as kitchens, because it’s hypoallergenic and doesn’t contain any of the big 14 food allergens that cause 90 percent of allergies, such as milk, gluten, nuts and eggs,” explains Tim.

The Bayer Pest Solutions Team will be available at PPC Live on 11 March on stand 12 to discuss the product and overall pest management.
