Aerosol
The product has a contact-intestinal effect. Cockroaches are not addicted to it, since the use of the main active ingredient, cypermethrin, began to be used recently.
Terms of use
Treatment of premises against cockroaches using Raptor aerosol against crawling insects is carried out sequentially, according to the following algorithm of actions:
- Preparation of premises. Cleaning is carried out: the products are carefully closed and hidden in an inaccessible place.
- Determine the area of disinfestation. People who do not take part in the process of baiting insects, children and animals should not be in the apartment or house.
- Windows, doors, and ventilation openings are closed.
- Direct processing is carried out. Aerosol spraying is carried out in those places where cockroaches were most noticed: under sinks and bathrooms, around sewer pipes, in the trash can area, behind cabinets.
The aerosol can should be shaken vigorously, surfaces and targeted areas should be treated at a distance of at least 20 cm. Windows and doors should not be opened for 15-20 minutes, after which the premises should be ventilated. It is recommended to use protective equipment during processing.

How to distinguish a fake from the original?
Unfortunately, today the shelves of many stores are filled with a mass of counterfeit goods. Unscrupulous manufacturers, in pursuit of super-profits, willingly resort to deception, counterfeit and distribute the most popular products.
Cockroach poisoning products are no exception, which means that no consumer is immune from purchasing a counterfeit. How to distinguish the original Raptor aerosol and minimize the risks of purchasing a counterfeit?
- Incredibly low price. Never chase global discounts; in an effort to save money, you risk purchasing a fake. Even on super sale days, the cost of goods rarely decreases by more than 50 - 70%. Go to the manufacturer's official website and check the prices to be able to estimate the size of the discounts.
- Go shopping to a specialized store or to the appropriate department of a supermarket, where, if necessary, you can ask the seller for a package of permits for the product. When purchasing a spray “from hand” in spontaneous markets, you run the additional risk of acquiring a counterfeit product.
- In recent years, most consumers make purchases in online stores. Purchasing a spray on the official website of the Raptor company is the most reliable way to acquire an original product.
- Spend a little time and carefully study what a real Raptor aerosol can looks like. Pay attention to the color, font, location of inscriptions and emblems, barcode. You can even save the picture to your smartphone and compare it with the product you are purchasing.

Spray Raptor against cockroaches with increased efficiency is a professional means for exterminating insects. Has the following advantages:
- massively exterminates the insect population;
- instant action;
- ease of use;
- penetration into hard-to-reach places.
Aerosol
On a note!
The professional drug Raptor effectively acts on cockroaches that have adapted to other means.
Characteristic
The spray with increased efficiency belongs to the new generation of drugs. The main active substance in the Raptor aerosol is Cypermethrin. Upon contact with it, it affects the cockroach's stomach. Crawling through areas treated with an aerosol, insects become infected with a substance that instantly penetrates the chitinous cover into their body and almost immediately kills the pests. The shelf life of the drug is 5 years.
Instructions
Before using the product, you should carefully study the instructions for use and strictly follow them:
- Calculate the amount of aerosol. One Raptor can with a capacity of 350 ml is enough to treat 50 square meters. m.
- Vents, windows, doors are closed before processing.
- Shake the can well and spray the product in places where cockroaches are most concentrated: in the area of the sink, bathroom, baseboards, water pipes, direct the stream into existing cracks. It is recommended to treat furniture, walls and countertop surfaces.
- Hold the bottle with its contents vertically, at arm's length.
- Leave the room for half an hour, then clean.
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.
Operating principle
The mechanism of action of the “chemical triad” is as follows:
- When the insect moves over the treated surface, the poison remains on its legs.
- The insecticide penetrates the body through the chitinous cover, affecting the nervous system of the bug.
- By contacting other individuals, the insect infects them, and they are subject to the same poisonous effect.
- The parasites become paralyzed and die within 24 hours. The poison lasts up to 20 days, but over time its effectiveness decreases.
The effect of poison on bedbugs is weaker than on other indoor pests (cockroaches, ants). They are quite tenacious and quickly adapt to the action of toxic substances. Their survival is due to the fact that sprays and aerosols are not so concentrated and their impact is weaker.

Note: If you treat the nest itself so that the poison gets directly onto the insects, this will guarantee their death. When treating places of their possible movement, Raptor cannot completely destroy parasites, since the active substances are poorly attached to the surface.
Aerosol concentrate Barrier
The concentrated drug is a professional product used to kill cockroaches. The aerosol contains a formula that has no analogues in the world. This creates an effective barrier for insects. Its effect lasts for six months.
Aerosol concentrate
Characteristic
The product formula contains 3 active ingredients:
- bifenhtrin;
- Cypermethrin;
- piperonyli butoxydum.
The aerosol has a nerve-paralytic effect on insects, providing a long-lasting effect. Therefore, it is recommended to use it in rooms with a large number of cockroaches or to provide a barrier effect.
The active substances evaporate gradually. This effect is achieved thanks to a special formula. On the treated base, the effect of the drug lasts for a month. By coming into contact with active substances, cockroaches infect their relatives. Both of them die after a short period of time. During spraying, toxic components instantly enter the body of pests. The barrier penetrates well through ventilation barriers, into cracks and other hard-to-reach places.
Instructions for use
To obtain the desired effect, the manufacturer advises spraying the product on surfaces that do not absorb liquid. Such materials include: plastic, tile, linoleum, metal. If you treat porous substrates, the duration of the spray is reduced. The room is processed in stages:
- The can should be shaken vigorously. Hold it vertically while spraying.
- To ensure a barrier effect, the places where cockroaches enter are treated: entrance doors, windows, loggias, balconies, ventilation shafts, cracks.
- To destroy existing insects, the places where they are most concentrated are subject to treatment.
The aerosol is sold in an 80 ml can. It can be used for three years. Average price – 220 rubles.
Cons of the spray
In addition to a lot of positive aspects, the aerosol also has some disadvantages.
It should be borne in mind that sprays do not have a detrimental effect on cockroach nests. Therefore, after 2 - 3 weeks you will have to repeat the treatment of the room to get rid of hatched, young cockroaches.
There are risks of aerosol droplets getting on the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract. To protect yourself and avoid unpleasant consequences, you should always use a respirator and rubber gloves when processing the premises.

How to use
It is recommended to shake the can well. This will allow you to get the best effect when treating rooms. Next, a series of steps are followed:
- the bottle should be held vertically in your hand;
- treat areas where cockroaches accumulate at a distance of 20 cm;
- doors and windows must be closed for 20 minutes;
- cleaning is carried out half an hour after ventilation.
It is recommended to re-treat contaminated premises after a month. The universal Raptor is sold in a 275 ml can. From the date of production it is valid for 3 years. The cost of the drug is about 380 rubles.
Effect of the product on bedbugs
The composition of the “Raptor” product includes three active substances.
- Cypermethrin affects the nervous system of bedbugs, both adults and larvae. It causes the greatest damage on the first day of use, but remains active for 20 days. Resistant to sunlight;
- Tetramethrin is a nerve poison, slightly toxic to people and domestic animals;
- Piperonyl butoxide does not have a toxic effect on insects, but seriously enhances the effect of other components.
The product begins to act against the insect the moment it runs over the surface with the composition applied to it. When one pest meets another, the toxic composition can be transferred from individual to individual. The death of the parasite is observed within 24 hours after its contact with the poison.
However, the effectiveness against bedbugs is still lower than against other crawling insects. This is explained by the small concentrations of poison in the Raptor composition, as well as the general resistance of the bug to external influences.
The greatest effect is achieved if the product is applied directly to the nest or clutches of parasites.
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.

Preparation for experiments
The experiment used 4 test tubes with mites, numbered: 2, 10, 13 and 15. I conducted two experiments - with a protective circle and on a vertical fabric.
The protective circle requires paper with a marked area. The drug is applied along its perimeter. And in the experiment with vertical fabric, you need to apply the product along the line and hang the fabric vertically, simulating the movement of a tick on clothing.
The experiment was carried out twice: an hour after applying the product and one day after processing the paper and fabric. In this way, the short-term and long-term effect of protection was tested.

On the eve of use, the apartment is put into a state of “combat readiness”. The rooms must be washed and vacuumed, cabinets, sofas and other furniture must be moved away from the walls and placed so that it is more convenient to treat all surfaces. Wash curtains, bedspreads, clothes, bedding and treat them at high temperatures.
"Raptor" for bedbugs: instructions
All its inhabitants, including pets, must leave the apartment. Flowers should be removed from the premises, aquariums and terrariums should be tightly covered with glass (it is better to move them to neighbors). Products, dishes, and toys for children should be sealed. Close doors, windows, and vents in rooms tightly.
When treated with “Raptor” against bedbugs, “Raptor” is already ready for use and the following manipulations are carried out with its help:
- Shake the can so that the components are distributed evenly.
- Wear personal protective equipment: gown, gloves, mask.
- The product is sprayed at a distance of 30 cm, with your arm extended forward and the container placed in a vertical position.
- Spray one area for no more than 2 seconds to avoid creating a wet spot or puddle;
- The treatment is carried out in a continuous line, which the bugs are not able to cross.
- Particular attention is paid to the nests in order to spray the parasites themselves and their larvae (treating open areas will not give the same effect).
- After the effect of “Raptor” on bedbugs, the apartment is left closed for half an hour, after which cross-ventilation is carried out for at least an hour.
Note: Some people experience an allergic reaction when the spray is inhaled and enters the respiratory tract. To avoid this, it is important to follow the rules of personal protection and use the instructions for the drug.
“Raptor” is produced in different forms: as an aquafumigator, aerosol, gel and smoke bombs, so you can always choose the most convenient product to use. The Raptor smoke bomb against bedbugs penetrates well into the most inaccessible corners and crevices and poses a danger to the most tenacious bedbugs. It is convenient for her to process uninhabited premises: warehouses, garages, dachas (in the off-season). In apartments, this procedure is dangerous due to the high permeability of the suspension of toxic particles.
Step-by-step instruction
Shake the can vigorously.
Calculate the required amount of product for your premises.
Spray the product in places where insects accumulate. Pay special attention to baseboards, cracks, kitchen modules, and plumbing and sewer pipes. Also, do not forget about household appliances; cockroaches prefer to settle in places that are so safe for their livelihoods. It wouldn’t hurt to treat the surface of the floor, countertops and even walls.
You've probably noticed that it only takes a few seconds for cockroaches to scatter to secluded places if you unexpectedly disturb their evening stroll through your kitchen.
This “super speed” is explained very simply, each Prussian does not just run away chaotically, but moves strictly along a certain route, along his own well-trodden path. This means that it is necessary to influence their horns so that part of the toxic composites enters the insects’ bodies through their legs and accelerates their death.
Close windows, vents, doors hermetically and leave the room for 30 - 60 minutes. There is no need to increase this time period, because the chemical elements contained in the composition undergo half-life very quickly.
After the specified time has passed, ventilate the apartment well. Now you can return to the room.
