It really works

I didn’t have much luck with ants but definitely worked for roaches

This is the first product that I have bought in a long time that actually works. You just have to have patience and give it some time though.

The plastic bottle and spray nozzle not as efficient to operate. I had to remove the nozzle and spread the powder where I needed. This not as economical to use, I probably spread too much powder with cap/nozzle removed. It did the job but not economical enough too much money for the use.

I purchased Terro T530 Roach Bait Powder Plus Applicator, After a few usages the applicator seems to get jammed and does not deliver the powder each time you pump. I called Terro and they sent me a replacement bottle. After 10 or 20 applications the same thing happened to the replacement bottle. Terro says you get 150 applications from each bottle, but the applicator becomes useless after only 10-20. In the end, I opened the bottle and shook out the contents to places that needed the bait. I got no where near the coverage as would have gotten if the bottle did not get gunked up. Terro you need to improve the applicator so it works consistently. I am sure this was result of humidity. I live in a regular home with no special humidity problems.

I have a small retail shop that shares a wall with a pizza restaurant. The pizza is fantastic, best in town. But they cause us nothing but grief. They never empty the grease trap, so our store smells of sewage often. They "wash" the floor with a garden hose, so water leaks into our store. And the bug situation along that wall is bad. Very bad. I love Terro products and have used the ant baits in the past, but I tried this new one because it dealt also with roaches and silverfish, which I find in the store as well. I definitely recommend reading the application instructions before just squirting this stuff all over the place. I was very selective where I applied the product and so far, it seems to do the job. I am finding dead bugs instead of live ones. Hopefully soon there wont be either.

The TERRO T530 Roach Bait Powder did help reduce the number of roaches and ants around my kitchen and garage, and the powder itself seems effective once applied. I noticed fewer bugs within a few days, especially in cracks and corners where insects usually hide. However, the biggest issue was the precision applicator. It kept getting clogged and stuck while trying to apply the powder, which made the process frustrating and messy. I had to constantly shake and tap the bottle just to get a small amount out. The product works, but the applicator design definitely needs improvement. Overall, the bait powder is effective for killing roaches and ants, but be prepared for some hassle when using the applicator. If TERRO improved the dispenser, this would easily be a much better product.
