What is one of the most effective formulations for use against cockroaches, ants, and rodents?

Baits are considered one of the most effective formulations for controlling cockroaches, ants, and rodents because they are specifically designed to attract target pests. Baits often contain a food attractant that entices these insects and rodents to consume the toxic ingredients, leading to effective pest management.

The use of baits allows for a targeted approach, meaning that the pests consume the bait, which can subsequently reduce their populations more effectively than other methods. For example, in the case of cockroaches and ants, they can share the bait with others in their colony, promoting a domino effect that further helps eradicate the problem.

In contrast, while granules, powders, and sprays can be effective in certain scenarios, they may not be as efficient in controlling these pests in the long term. Granules may not provide the same level of attraction and consumption, while powders can sometimes be avoided by pests. Sprays often kill on contact but do not have the same residual effect or attractiveness that baits provide, which often leads to a quicker and more thorough reduction of pest populations when it comes to persistent infestations.
