I live in an apartment and have had problems with roaches. I bought stuff at the dollar store and nothing ever worked. I got Combat and *poof* they're dead. This is a quality product that will destroy your roach problem. I sound like a commercial for them, but it's true. Look at other Combat products and see their reviews. This stuff is a miracle. I recommend it 100%. This or their gel is like a Nuclear Bomb for roaches. The gel stains though, so I like these a bit better. Amazing!!!

I read the previous review and notice I had a very similar experience. I too live in an apartment, and every so often I would find roaches in the apartment. It really bugged me because I dont cook, nor have any food around. Because of work I am usually never home and he only thing in my frige are cans of soda. I did notice that my neighbor below is handicapped and a s result does not have the tidiest apartment and hence they may be sneaking up to my place. I went to the dollar store and purchase their item but it did not work, it seemed to have lured more. After that I decided to wage war and purchase combat. I got three boxes of these and loaded the bottom of the stove, the fridge with them and the bathroom. Within the week I have not seen a roach.

I have a horrible roach problem in my apartment. This product actually works, but I did come home to find roaches actively dying in the kitchen. Pretty gross, but I will still continue to use this product.

I bought this stuff for my mother's apartment. They were spraying and it was not helping and it was also deadly because my mother never opened the windows. Once I bought this stuff and spread it around like the diagrams suggested, Poof!! They were gone and are still gone almost a year later. I would say it started to work within a couple of days no roaches seen again. Great product. Will purchase again when the time comes. They don't spray the apartment anymore either.

Quick note to say this is only for small roaches. The ones we have are to big to get into it!

I've been battling this for several weeks now and within five days of putting this stuff down, along with the gel in some corners around the cabinets, the only bugs I see are dead ones. I think/hope I caught my problem early and my roaches were small, more nymphs than adults. I continue to clean the kitchen top to bottom every evening and will continue to monitor the situation but so far so good.

The plastic is a bit cheap, but they worked well. I hadn't seen a roach in over a year, but the day after putting these out, I found four dead roaches. Hopefully it will keep working for 12 months.

I bought this Combat Roach Killer because I had tried many other remedies, none of which worked. I spread these little traps all over the kitchen and the house and they worked great.

Good, but not last that long as instructed. Seem kill the roach, but last for about 3 months, not 1 year.

I recently moved into this cute but crowded house, where I share a bedroom in addition to a multitude of other renters in other parts of the house. Despite having little space and no privacy, I was ok with the arrangement because the rent is cheap, and the house is pretty nice. My amusement was short-lived, however, when I encountered a roach in the bathroom sink my first night there. Uh... ok, this seems to be a common problem in this area, so I was used to occasionally seeing a roach. Occasionally. One. In an apartment building, I think this is unavoidable.

I had actually bought these baits for my last apartment after reading many horror stories about apartments in the area. I never thought much of them though... I was disappointed that I would occasionally see a roach. Turns out this stuff was probably stemming the tide. After encountering that one in the bathroom the first night, I went down to the kitchen the second night to microwave some food for dinner. I turned on the light, and the counter was moving. Literally hundreds... if not thousands. I am not exaggerating. All sizes... everywhere. I'm afraid to go downstairs at night now. After this, I would occasionally notice one or two wandering my room, staring me down by my computer, etc... so I bought this bait again, and put some down in my room. Note: the individual traps are hard to break apart. Use scissors or a knife. As I didn't have one available at the moment, I put a whole sheet under my desk, and left for a 5-day weekend. I returned 4 days ago and have not seen a single roach in my bedroom since.

Then came the next test. The bathroom. By this point, I had realized that there was not just one occasional one in the sink, that was just the big one. The night I came home from my trip, I saw about a dozen of varying sizes. I cut out two individual baits and put one behind the sink and one behind the trashcan. Have not seen one in there since.

Now to tackle the kitchen...
