1.0 out of 5 stars does not work, September 5, 2010

This review is from: P.F. Harris HRT6 Famous Roach Tablets (Misc.)

I just moved into a duplex where these tablets were in every cupboard, cabinets and closet. But the place is still infested with bugs!!!! I have used Boric acid powder and homemade traps for years that DO work. I recommend that you not waste your money on this product. Instead buy the powder and make a mixture of sugar, butter and boric acid. Pack into plastic straws and cut 1/2 strips. These tiny roach baits will fit into corners, cracks and can be dropped behind the walls. These will last forever and keep on working and your roach problem will disappear. I have lived in Maryland and Texas and live roach free while my neighbors suffer!!

We started noticing cockroaches in our house and garage some weeks ago, right after the (condemned) property close to us finally got it's 3-foot-tall grass mowed. I assume they are looking for greener pastures and I was Not going to let them rest here!! I saw the reviews and gave it a try. I'd like to point out a few things about the product, though.

First, for pet owners - don't believe the other review(s) that this is "pet friendly". It states on the box that you want to keep this away from your pets. But the nature of the product and where you place it around your home DOES make it the best choice. I have three cats and as soon as I opened this product they all came running to see (it does sound like pet food or treats inside a box - so you can imagine how they reacted). However, if you have a house like mine, there is still absolutely no way they can retrieve these pellets if you place them correctly. I was able to make them completely disappear between the carpet and the wall.

Second, I think it works! While I was hoping to see some dead cockroaches on my carpet, (DIE!!) I simply didn't see any again! It's been over a month now and I've been looking. We used to see maybe one or two in the middle of the day (when it's usually quiet) or in the middle of the night and they just aren't there. I wish I could say I've seen evidence of the pellets being eaten, but if you follow the instructions you won't see those pellets ever again anyway.

5.0 out of 5 stars A "Best Kept Secret"...., February 28, 2010

I have used Harris Famous Roach Tablet products for years and find them to be most effective. In addition, I have recommended them to countless friends and neighbors, all with stellar results. If anyone is dissatisfied with the results, they must be using them incorrectly or expecting them to work on insects other than roaches. For me, this is the ultimate, perfect product. Place them around all entrances to your home and various locations around the kitchen and bath. They are safe for pets and children, too. If you keep a close watch on the tablets from day to day, you will see that small bits of them are gone. Take a close look, around the edges and you will notice the tablet losing its shape due to erosion by roaches nibbling at them. The substance is picked up by the roach and taken to its nest, where the whole roach family partakes. Before long, no more roaches. And they stay gone for years -- as long as you keep the tablets replenished. I highly recommend ALL of the Harris roach elimination products.
