Combat Max Large Roach Killing Bait Trap

Amazon

Lo and behold, I found the solution to my insect infestation on Amazon. The Combat Max Large Roach Killing Bait Trap sent out a firm eviction notice to my freeloading roaches.  

For less than $10, this pack comes with eight roach traps that contain bait. Simply place the bait traps in areas where roaches typically scurry—along baseboards or in corners—and wait. That’s it. 

The roaches will be enticed to enter the trap and take the bait back to their colony, where they’ll share it with other roaches. The bait contains poison, which will eventually eliminate the main roach and the roaches it shared the bait with. The best part is, the bait traps don’t smell, and they aren’t messy.

Before I put out these bait traps, I was seeing at least two roaches in my house daily. After setting them in my bathrooms, bedrooms, and laundry room, I didn’t see any live roaches for weeks. It completely took care of my roach problem. 

When I did eventually see another live roach, I just swapped out a couple of my old bait traps for fresh ones, and I never saw that roach again. 

These bait traps can last up to three months, but you may have to swap them out more frequently (like me) if you have more roaches. If you really want to make sure your house is roach-proof, here are a few more inexpensive solutions to keep the pests out of your house.
