What do you recommend for cockroaches? I've sprayed everywhere and can't control them…

Envu offers 3 cockroach gel baits with different active constituents under the brand name "Maxforce". A cockroach control management program may require the use of different active ingredients to cope with cockroach resistance and also a range of environmental factors.

When considering a treatment program, identify any environmental factors which may be impacting on bait take-up such as additional food sources. Eliminate these factors to encourage bait feeding.

Always read the product label to establish the most appropriate “Maxforce” product for the job.

I have a mosquito problem, what can I do?

Effective mosquito control often involves targeting the pest at different stages of the lifecycle to completely eradicate the problem.

There are a number of control options available from treating the mosquito larvae developing in stagnant water, through to the use of contact sprays or foggers to target the adults.
