Dichlorvos
Dichlorvos is the oldest anti-cockroach drug that has been tested over the years. Of course, modern versions differ from their predecessors 50 years ago.

- Permethrin;
- Cypermethrin;
- Piperonyl butoxide;
- Tetramethrin;
- Diethyltoluamide;
- Dimethyl sulfoxide.

To achieve the greatest effect, judging by the reviews of the Raptor aerosol, you should spray it wherever pests have been noticed. The spray is sold in 430 ml cans.
Compound
Each form of Raptor has its own unique composition, but the action is identical. Active substances cause dysfunction of the nervous system, provoke muscle paralysis, and after some time death occurs. Cockroaches receive a dose of poison, manage to infect their brothers, young individuals in the nest, and soon mass death is observed. The exception is an aerosol, which acts instantly, penetrating the insect’s body through the chitinous cover and respiratory tract.
- The aerosol contains popular broad-spectrum insecticides - cypermethrin, tetramethrin, piperonyl butoxyl, as well as a solvent for the base, a flavoring agent that suppresses the strong smell of poison.
- In the composition of the gel, the manufacturer indicates a less popular insecticide - lambda-cyhalothrin, food additives, preservatives for long-term effects, a gelling agent that gives shape and prevents the drug from drying out.
- The traps operate on the basis of a modern insecticidal substance – fipronil. It has a nerve-paralytic effect, retains its properties for a long time, and is resistant to sunlight. The composition is supplemented with preservatives, gelling agents, and flavorings.
- The aquafumigator contains an insecticide - cyphenothrin, a vapor-forming reagent and a binder. Due to the formation of small droplets containing poison, the product penetrates into hard-to-reach places and settles on any surface.
All Raptor drugs are highly effective when used correctly.

Customer Reviews
When cockroaches appeared in the apartment, I was in a little shock. I can't understand where they came from. I asked my friends if they had encountered a similar problem. They advised me to buy a Raptor. I chose a universal product and used it according to the instructions. The result exceeded my expectations. I advise everyone who has Prussians to buy it.
Elena, Ekaterinburg
Raptor didn't help me. I do not know what to say. Maybe the neighbors have a lot of cockroaches, but they don’t fight them, or maybe it was necessary to buy not an ordinary spray, but a Barrier. I would be grateful for your advice.
Ekaterina, Saratov
An excellent drug. Effective instantly. We sprayed Raptor with aerosol for the night and went to our parents. In the morning, when I entered the apartment, I saw a “carpet” of cockroaches. It was quite a sight. A month later they re-treated. It's been a year now and there are no cockroaches.

Aids
The fight against cockroaches usually brings the best results when carried out on several fronts at the same time. That is why we will consider additional drugs for removing cockroaches. These include chalk and boric acid. If your goal is only to scare away a few six-legged guests creeping into your neighbors, then such drugs would be quite appropriate.
Boric acid traps are an old folk remedy, time-tested, probably longer than dichlorvos. The substance can easily be bought at a pharmacy and, when diluted with water or an attractive bait, left in the kitchen overnight. Sometimes you will find a deceased cockroach right next to this trap.
As for crayons, the most common, but not the only one, Mashenka, is an effective insect repellent. Its basic components: deltamethrin, zetacypermethrin. Cockroach crayons are also produced by the brands Clean House, Domovoy, and Tornado.
It is worth mentioning that ready-made traps will also help get rid of a small number of pests. You don’t have to worry about diluting boric acid or preparing bait, but buy a special disk (trap) from Kombat or another company and attach it to insect habitats.
Is there really a poison inside - hydramethylnon and a substance with an attractive smell and taste for the parasite? Moreover, such a system is absolutely harmless, since neither a child nor a pet will be able to reach the poison.
How not to buy a fake instead of the original?
Today there is a great demand for traps to get rid of cockroaches, so the chances of purchasing counterfeit goods instead of the original ones increase. Most often, scammers counterfeit products from well-known brands, such as the manufacturer of insecticidal preparations Raptor.
It also happens that a fake at first glance is no different from a real trap, and all its flaws are discovered only after some time. To protect yourself from such troubles, purchase insect traps should be made only in those stores that you trust.
Do not buy the drug at those retail outlets where the cost of the trap varies greatly in one direction or another from its average market price in the region.
