Talon Cockroach Killer Gel

Not easy to use as advertised – This product looked like it was what I wanted, as I had seen some cockies around the dishwasher. However, it was not as easy to use as I expected. Took of cap, pointed it where I wanted to put a bead and pushed plunger. It resisted. I pushed a little harder. It still did not move. I pushed a little harder. It went "pop" and sprayed the entire… Read more

contents out in one go. At this point, I have no idea on whether the cockies are going to like it or not, but they have plenty to try.

Total failure – Such glowing reports that I went out and bought two units. I placed one in a kitchen cupboard and the other down beside the dishwasher. The cockroaches completely ignore it and are just as thick as ever after six days. I don't know how others could have had such great success when my cockroaches are so unimpressed. Show details

Highly recommend – Only thing that worked. I lived in a block of units. Nothing else worked except this. Also the easiest to use. A year of freedom but now they are returning. Canny get the product. Shelves are empty. HELP Show details

Awesome better than any pestman – Had pest service, made matters worse in a commercial kitchen, used this product and saw effectiveness next day, used a few times spread out over 2 months, completely roach free Highly recommend, love it Show details

The best cockroach eliminator out there! – We’ve always had a German cockroach problem in every house we’ve lived in, I can finally say we have no infestation now! For years I tried using traps and sprays, shop bought and natural, and they only worked on a small population of those little buggers. I bought 6 of these gels on special at Coles. I used some of the gel in the beginning of last… Read more

year and was very pleased with seeing so many dead roaches. I full on attacked them in winter when their numbers were low. It’s the middle of summer and I’ve only ever seen 1 roach at a time! I still have 2 gels left which I use to top up hotspots (1 still in the packet!). I recommend everyone use this as a safe, effective way to get rid of German cockroaches!

Beyond words – Tiny dot of paste in the corners of the room away from food surfaces, topping up as needed and the infestation has gone within a few weeks. Friend recommended after his cleared in a few days. Beyond words at having them gone. So grateful, couldn't recommend enough. Show details

Only thing that worked – Living in an apartment block sucks if your neighbours can't keep clean. We had a huge German cockroach problem for nearly 2 years, even had to throw out the oven and dishwasher after they got in the wiring. Tried surface sprays and baits, but they did nothing. I was hesitant about using bombs as I have pets, so I picked this up from the… Read more

supermarket, no prior knowledge behind the purchase, only desperation as it was one of the few products I hadn't yet tried. Followed instructions carefully (as it is a highly concentrated poison). Dotted it in hard to reach places and within a week they were gone. I couldn't believe it! There's a thread further down wondering as to the veracity of these glowing reviews. Myself, I am reviewing after I saw my first cockroach in 18 months today, picked up the half-used tube to use again and thought "wow, this cheap butt tube really did work." I wish I'd known about it from the start. I wish i didnt have to replace my oven and dishwasher. I wish that when I'd searched "best ways to kill cockroaches" this thread had come up. I hope they never change the formula for this product. $8? Priceless for piece of mind.

roach infestation is now almost gone – So I have been having this infestation for quite some time and everybody in the house knows how bad I'm freaking out! Unfortunately, the natural method didn't work so I decided on buying this and voila, the roaches are no longer seen! Show details

Excellent – Put it in the howtater tank area where I have had an infestation for months. Kept spraying them but would come back A couple of doses with this product and they are now all gone, it seems Easy to use and I think pros use this type of gel Show details

Can't believe it actually works – Had a bad German infestation happening. My mum used to have the same problem but said she used talon and swears by it. I bought two tubes and just dotted around where I saw their mess (the black dots they leave). It's been two days now and every time I walk in the kitchen I have to sweep up a bunch of dead and dying cockroaches, it's a beautiful… Read more

sight lol. Will be doing a big wipe down inside of all the cupboards in a few days as I will need to with all the dead ones dropping EVERYWHERE, and will reapply once done. I was going to pay over $300 for pest control, but instead $8 a tube fixed the problem. I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it myself.

This really works – Had a bad cockroach infestation 2 years ago. Was using surface spray and roach baits. They helped a little but would still see roaches. Then bought this on a whim. This was a game changer. Within a week never saw a roach again. I reapply every 3 months to keep a roach free house. Show details

Really works – I’m a big fan of Talon Ant Killer so decided to give the roach gel a try. We have not had coackroaches around for a while but started to notice small cockroaches coming out of appliances in our kitchen. I applied this bait sparingly behind and around appliances and whitegoods as well as in cracks and voids around the skirting boards. After a day or so I’ve noticed many cockroaches laying dead on the kitchen floor overnight. It works. Show details

Huge fan but bought cockroach gel instead of Ant gel – I am an absolute huge fan of selleys talon ant gel, but not noticing till I opened the package (was in a rush shopping before school pick-up), I had bought cockroach gel instead. I have a newly built home and have a shocking ant problem. Last application of Ant gel lasted 3-4 months. Out of curiosity I've applied the cockroach gel and the ants… Read more ·  1

seem to enjoy it. As the colour is different I will wait till the ants have disappeared and will remove the gel off of my counter, but will let you know the results.

This is what you've been looking for! – I had major German Cockroach problem in the kitchen of a place that I had recently moved into. I had been told that the pest control had been in previously, but it sure didn't seem like they had. I tried 2x bombs over separate days to get rid of them - to no avail. Those little creatures were seemingly unkillable. A bit of research - and by… Read more

recommendations on this website, I gave the Talon Gel a go. WOW - is all I can say. (I didn't think I would ever be able to get rid of them.) Overnight it was clearly working. The sheer satisfaction of seeing more dead roaches when I woke up / got home from work for a few days.

I put the gel in spots around the kitchen as recommended. I did have to do two rounds, but within a week, the numbers had dramatically decreased. Two weeks later I might see 1 cockroach, but on the whole, the disgusting problem has been fixed (and this is a humid summer).

I can't recommend this product highly enough. I am still amazed they haven't reappeared and I haven't even opened my second packet of Talon Gel!

Amazing!! – This is the only product that actually worked and we had quite the plague, havent seen a living cocky in months .. excellent product, highly recommend.. be sure to follow the instructions and theyll be gone in no time Show details

It Works – Tried sprays and bombs but still had cockroaches in kitchen. Tried Talon based on reviews here. It works. A few dead one on kitchen floor morning after using. A few more dead 'uns for a few days. No more roaches seen sincr. Show details

Actually Works. Now Have Zero Cockroaches – My previous review was based on the result after 2 days with one tube. After buying the second tube 2 days ago I now seem to have no cockroaches. I started with Mortein Cockroach gel and it did nothing. I bought a second- nothing. Heaps of roaches. Tried the Mortein and Raid plastic baits- Useless. Tried a single tube of Talon Gel and seemed to do… Read more

nothing. After 2 days bought a second tube. Bingo. Zero roaches. I'll be using this stuff in the future.

Very impressed it really works – I had small German cockroach invading my kitchen. I used one and a bit of the tubes where the cockroach were hiding and after a couple of days there were sick ones then dead ones. I haven't seen a cockroach for six weeks. If they reappear I will use the remainder of the product before they take hold. Show details ·  1

Works for months...! A truly GREAT product – All I can say is, Talon PLEASE don't water down this formula or put the price up too much, because you've made a truly great product. I put a few dabs about a foot apart around the kitchen, and there are no roaches for MONTHS. The dabs stay there pretty well too, wiping out any newcomers who try to invade. THANKS TALON ! You're saving capitalism lol.

Really amazing – I had concern of visible cockroaches anytime i go in kitchen and i applied on some areas before we went on holidays for 3 days and after coming back don't know where they gone. Found few dead on floor and the rest just disappeared maybe dead in hidden arras. Very happy with the product.

My friend recommended to me .Its excellent roach killer – It’s easy to use and price wise good too . I really happy with the product . It’s been second day cockroaches dying everywhere . I have used Moreton gel and spent $300 on pest control before but my thumbs up

If only i had known sooner, i wasted so much money on other shonky roach kill products – Bought 2 syringes and used the first one, i got about a meter long worth of gel and drew a dashed line around my fridge and sink(only chemical free water sources in the house) its been a week and all i see now dead roaches, amazing didn't even get to use the second tube.

excellent - 90% gone in 3 weeks – Sold at Coles supermarkets for around $8/ tube. I have already used 7 tubes and the roaches are gobbling it down. Within a day there are usually some very sickly looking cockroaches wobbling around and with 2 or 3 days there were literally thousands of dead roaches. Don't waste your money on the roach bombs as they only kill a small percentage.

Bought it to remove German cockroaches didn't work at all – Bought it for removing the German cockroaches. Didn't see any effect waste of money not sure none of the bombs worked this time. I tried to buy this product from Coles but some stores say they have 20 in stock but they don't exist in the racks.

Believe the reviews it works – Cheap, easy to use & very effective. Cockroaches we're completely gone within 3 days. I haven't used any other brand or remedy but if I ever encounter this problem again this will be my go to solution. Highly recommend.

It works !! – OMG, I will not use anything else EVER. I've tried bombs, sprays all of it forget them, they cost more & don't work. My neighbour upstairs moved out but left behind the most annoying German cockroaches. The landlord sprayed the unit & yes the simply moved into my unit. They loved my unit & multipied within days. I bought this gel & within days… Read more

they were dead, after about a week all gone. I swear this stuff works, it gets back to the best & they love it. Great product. To buy I found the larger Coles stores.

Really Worked – As many before me have mentioned...I was sceptical because I had tried sprays and baits before. But this was on another level. Its been a week since I applied just a few dabs around the kitchen and crawlies have virtually disappeared.

Really a cockroach crusher! – That's a super effective solution. I tried baits and surface sprays first; sprays are useless, baits were partially working (reduced infestation), but still the problem was obvious and gradually worsening. Then I decided to give Talon a go; applied it into the places where cockroaches were most frequent. Dishwasher nooks and crannies (NOT THE… Read more

PARTS IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH WATER!), under water sinks, fridge etc. From the very first day, obvious disruption and many roaches distracted and poorly moving; in two days - a deluge of dying crawlies, also dead are everywhere. I guess most of them died in hidden places, though, so I only saw a small fraction of the previous infestation... In 3-4 days almost non cocroaches visible. Absolutely recommend!

Amazing product! – I can't believe how well this product worked. We had so many of those small brown German cockroaches running around in every room, they were into everything including the fridge. We tried spray, bombs, baits, nothing worked, those product did not even help a little bit. I saw this Talon Cockroach killer gel at Coles and thought that I… Read more

would give it a go, I was very sceptical and thought it would be like all the other stuff that I tried, but to my surprise it worked almost straight away and now I see only dead cockroaches. I have recommended this product to anyone that mentions they have an issue with cockroaches, it is the only thing that I have found that actually works.

You won't get better than this D.I.Y – Was astounded at the effectiveness of Talon roach Gel. It may take three applications if you have a bad infestation, but for a total of around $24, it's certainly cheaper than what you will pay Pest Controllers for virtually the same thing. Best German roach killer ever!

Such a small amount of product does a mighty job – As others have said, I tried bombs, household sprays, industrial sprays and anything else I could find. There are only two things that work - a size 11 shoe and Talon. It was recommended to me by a fellow who lives in an apartment on the 6th floor. I am on the 1st floor. So I suppose the little charmers are right throughout the building. I bought… Read more

3 tubes at a cost of about $8 each and strategically placed little baits where I thought would be most effective. I'm the original skeptic. Low and behold, I started finding very sick cockies wandering into the kitchen floor. There they died. I can only assume there are many more that didn't make it to the kitchen floor and died in other hiding places. I also baited my study and anywhere there is warmth. They are still dying. I'm not sure when to stop baiting but I'll continue to use Talon.

FANTASTIC !!!! – I had tried everything from Bombs to Baits and hundreds of cans of spray. This product was brilliant within a couple of weeks every cockroach large and small, were gone. My biggest problem were the German little buggars but they could not stand up against this product. I couldn't recommend enough

The perfect DIY solution to wipe out cockroaches – We had a massive problem with German roaches - no amount of cleaning, Morton bait traps, "Professional" residual spray products and 30-day knock down aerosols would work. After researching products containing Indoxacarb (which are normally used by professionals at $40-60 per 5g tube) I stumbled upon this product at Coles and decided to by two… Read more

tubes. The formulation and strength was exactly the same as the pro products and a hell of a lot cheaper. The result?

Cockroach armageddon. It didn't seem to work at first but after 12 or so hours, hundreds of cockroaches, big and small would come out to die - this continued for days. After a week, not a single roach to be seen.

It definitely works!!

Doesnt work – Used this product 4 days ago, i have more roaches than ever very much alive and well..i think ill stick with a proffesional pest controller.
