Rubit for cockroaches: gel, liquid, instructions, review

Review

The effectiveness and safety of using the powder are inferior to the gel, so it has not gained popularity.
The powder is sold in blue packaging, the average price in Russia is 35 rubles. Full product name: House cleaner Rubit. The gel is sold in a syringe. The price is from 25 to 35 rubles, depending on the volume of the product - 15g or 30g. In the store it is called Rubit Zindan.

The advantage of the gel is the absence of harmful odors for people and animals.

Imidacloprid and Chlorpyrifos are insecticides included in Rubit gel.

Imidacloprid acts on the intestines of insects. Once in the body, the insecticide causes a malfunction of the nervous system, which leads to convulsions of cockroaches, and then to paralysis.

Cockroaches do not develop resistance to toxic substances, so the gel is effective when used repeatedly. The insecticide lasts 3-4 weeks.

Chlorpyrifos acts when ingested and causes paralysis. After several applications, cockroaches develop immunity to the insecticide. From the moment of application the gel is valid for 2 months.

Thanks to the mixture of two toxic substances, the likelihood of killing cockroaches increases.

An attractant substance lures pests and encourages them to eat the poison.

Advantages:

• affordable price;
• economical consumption;
• improved formula;
• guaranteed death of pests within a few hours.

Principle of action: the active components of the drug, penetrating the pest’s body, affect cholinesterase (an enzyme that transmits nerve impulses). Cholinesterase binds, causing it to lose its activity and cannot cause acetylcholine hydrolysis. The latter begins to actively accumulate in the synaltic cleft, which leads to disruption of the normal passage of nerve impulses. Tremor occurs, turning into paralysis. The product also works according to the domino principle: one individual that eats the poisoned bait infects its relatives, contributing to the rapid destruction of the colony.

Gel: features, principle of action

The cockroach repellent Rubit, presented in the form of a gel, is popular among consumers as it is more effective and convenient to use. The result after its use depends on the degree of infection of the apartment or house. The active substance, malathion, has a detrimental effect on domestic cockroaches. They die within a few hours, after paralysis of their body occurs. Living insects that feed on excrement and particles of the shell of dead fellows also die over time. Advantages of Rubit in gel form:

1. Ease of use. The substance is easily squeezed out of the tube; due to the existing spout, it can be used to treat bottlenecks.
2. Has no smell. But, unlike humans, Prussians feel it thanks to the attractants it contains.
3. Long lasting. The destruction of cockroaches is carried out within 14-49 days. The components included in the composition are resistant to sunlight, but are destroyed in alkaline and acidic environments, at high temperatures.
4. Economical consumption.
5. The anti-cockroach gel is colorless and is not visible on surfaces.
6. The drug is moderately toxic. It is not dangerous to humans or pets.

Gel

On a note!

The disadvantage of the product is that the gel is sticky, viscous, and it is not easy to get rid of it when cleaning the premises. Therefore, when applying it, it is recommended to use a substrate made of paper or cardboard.

Available in a syringe with a capacity of 15, 25, 30 g. The composition contains chocolate, natural honey, which has an aroma that attracts pests. There are no stains left when working with it. Shelf life – 3 years. Fully effective after opening for 12 months.

When treating premises with Rubit gel, you should strictly adhere to the instructions that come with the package:

Product description

Its uniqueness lies in its composition, which, in addition to toxic components, contains so-called attractants. The content of natural honey and chocolate increases the interest of insects in the gel and increases its palatability.

Thanks to its convenient release form, it can be applied to any surface, including even the most difficult to reach. It is easily removed with a regular soap and soda solution and does not leave any traces behind. Maintaining its properties for a long time, it does not dry out and does not become less effective outside the package. The first results are noticeable within a few days after use.

What other products are there from the Rubit brand?

When wasps have settled in your dacha and there are a lot of flies flying around, use a special preparation designed to kill these insects. It is available in granules consisting of methomyl, bitrex, imidacloprid and cystricosene.

The bait is poured 3-4 g onto plastic plates, moistened with a few drops of water and placed in places where wasps and flies accumulate. They are attracted to the product, they sit on the wet granules, eat them and die.

“Zindan” helps against ants and cockroaches. This is a syringe filled with gel, released by . The drug is applied in small drops at a distance of 4 cm in those places where there are many cockroaches. If the gel has hardened and is difficult to squeeze out, warm the syringe in warm water to make the poison more liquid.

Droplets of the gel fatally infect ants and ants, and they completely disappear from the apartment. The gel is easily washed off with a damp soft cloth and costs about 25 rubles.

Chalk: action, method of application

Presented in the form of a chalk, Rubit has proven its effectiveness in the fight against insects crawling indoors and outdoors. The active substance, deltamethrin, is poisonous. The toxic component has a negative effect on the nervous system of cockroaches, as a result of which they die. Advantages:

• long protective period;
• easy to apply;
• low cost.

Disadvantages include low efficiency in case of severe infection and unaesthetic appearance after application.

Chalk

The drug is produced in the form of chalk, packaged in 25 g. In addition to deltamethrin, it contains additional substances - alabaster, chalk and surfactants (surfactants). The action begins gradually. Crossing the chalk line, the poison enters the body. An infected cockroach passes the insecticide to its fellow cockroaches, who subsequently die.

Part of the chalk is removed from the packaging and lines are applied in places where cockroaches often live: near water pipes, along baseboards, at the joints of tiles, under the sink. Instructions for use of the drug are attached to the package. It must be strictly adhered to. For processing an area of ​​20 - 30 square meters. m. one package is enough. It is recommended to carry out processing with rubber gloves.

An analogue is the Mashenka chalk.

Composition and release forms

Initially, the substance cypermethrin is produced in powder form. However, the drug containing such a component reaches the consumer in the form of a concentrated solution. This ensures the highest level of efficiency. Cypermethrin quickly gets rid of bedbugs and other insects. The product is also available in the form of tablets - they are used to treat a room according to the principle of a smoke bomb. You can buy the concentrate in 50 ml and 1 liter bottles.

Cypermethrin for bedbugs - instructions for use

It is not recommended to use a cypermethrin-based smoke bomb in an apartment - the smoke spreads outside the home, through windows and doors. Neighbors may mistake it for the consequences of a fire and call for appropriate help. It is better to use Cypermethrin concentrate, instructions for use against bedbugs:

1. The room is being prepared: general cleaning is carried out, large furniture is moved, opening access to hidden areas. Such measures provide many opportunities for increasing efficiency: they help remove dust, which will improve the quality of the room; in this case, nests of bedbugs are discovered.
2. Bed linen is removed, things are removed from closets. All woven products must be washed or otherwise treated in a safe manner.
3. Roll up the carpet or bend the edges so that you can spray the product over them.
4. The walls are freed from interior items.
5. The drug must be diluted in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Agents of different concentrations (10 and 25%) are added to water in different dosages.
6. Cypermethrin against bedbugs is used by spraying; this is a more effective method than applying with a sponge. Windows and doors must be closed. The duration of exposure to the active substance immediately after treatment is several hours.
7. The drug continues to work for 15-20 days, so it is sprayed again at the end of this period.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE USE OF CYPERMETHRIN

Glue traps

This insecticide option is even safer. In order to get to the poison, a curious pet will have to chew through the plastic box. But as soon as he does this, he will immediately spit out its contents, writhing in disgust - the insecticide is designed for just this effect. But the cockroaches will eat the bait with great appetite. The operating principle is as follows:

• a Prussian crawls into the trap;
• eats poison;
• spreads insecticide throughout its colony on its paws;
• all cockroaches die from suffocation due to paralysis of the respiratory system.

Moreover, the strength of the poisons remains in the preparation for up to 3-4 months. This is not a bad period of preventive protection!

Traps are even easier to use than gels. There is an adhesive layer on the back of each box. It reliably attaches the trap to the work surface, as a result of which the device does not cause any inconvenience:

• she is not big;
• unnoticeable;
• pretty.

Dust

The cockroach repellent Rubit goes on sale in blue packaging. Upon contact with the poisonous substance, paralysis of the insects occurs, followed by death. The difficulty of using powder for treating premises is that it does not contain attractants - substances that attract cockroaches. Therefore, you should not count on high efficiency of dusts.

Dust

On a note!

The advantages of the powder include low cost and ease of processing. It is scattered on surfaces. The disadvantage is the possibility of poisoning, since the particles of the powder are light, they can be suspended in the air and penetrate into the human body. In hard-to-reach places it can be difficult to get rid of during cleaning.

Instructions for use:

1. To kill cockroaches, the entire room is treated - the floor, baseboards, shelves in closets. Since cockroaches crawl on vertical surfaces and dishes, this causes some inconvenience. Therefore, it is recommended to combine dust with other Rubit insecticides.
2. It is advisable to leave your home for a while.
3. After processing the premises, they begin to clean them.

Analogues:

• Front double;
• Phenaxin;
• Thiuram.

Safety precautions when working with insecticide

Concentrates are used to prepare an aqueous solution. At the same time, it is sprayed over surfaces, for which you should buy a spray bottle in advance. In this case, you should first put on personal protective equipment. It is mandatory to use glasses that cover the organs of vision, polymer gloves (not woven, which is important), long sleeves, trousers, a scarf and a respirator. After finishing work, you should wash things and take a shower using soap, since the insecticide is destroyed in an alkaline environment. The oral cavity and nasal passages are washed with water.

Effect of the drug on humans

Cypermethrin is a substance that belongs to hazard class 3. It can cause harm only if the instructions for use are grossly violated. In other cases, the drug does not provoke the appearance of unpleasant symptoms.

This is due to the fact that the toxic substance, when it enters the body of warm-blooded creatures, is quickly metabolized, and the released components are quickly eliminated.

Before using the drug, you must wear a protective suit

What to do in case of poisoning. First aid

If the instructions for use of the product are not followed, the risk of developing negative manifestations increases. In this case, the head may hurt, dizziness may appear, the person may feel sick, vomiting, and weakness. These are signs of intoxication with a toxic substance. If cypermethrin gets into the respiratory tract, you should go to the emergency room of the hospital's inpatient department. In case of contact with the product through the outer covers (when there is damage), it is recommended to wash them with soap or soda solution.

Sorbents are taken if the substance enters the digestive tract (with food).

Rubit Cypermethrin: composition, instructions for use

To quickly get rid of crawling insects in the house, Rubit Cypermethrin solution will help. The concentrate is sold in 100 ml containers. It is suitable for indoors, basements and open space. The action of the drug is based on the penetration of the active substance – cypermethrin into the pest’s body, which slows down the functioning of nerve endings, leading to paralysis and death of insects. Advantages of the solution:

• resistance to temperature, UV rays;
• does not cause addiction in cockroaches;
• economical consumption;
• acceptable cost.

The disadvantage of the concentrate is the need to prepare a working solution.

Solution

On a note!

The active substance is toxic, but does not harm humans when used correctly.

According to the instructions, you should prepare a solution. To do this, prepare a container with 1.5 liters of water, add 25 ml of concentrated liquid to it, mix well and pour into a spray bottle. Certain requirements must be adhered to when processing premises:

• use protective equipment: rubber gloves, respirator, goggles, protective suit;
• close windows and doors, carefully treat corners and doors;
• ventilate and begin cleaning 2 hours after treatment.

It is recommended to take food and clothing out or hide it in locked cabinets. The clothes are taken outside and sprayed at a distance of 25 cm. They should remain hanging on the clothesline for airing for an hour.

Analogues:

• Get;
• Forsyth;
• Cypermethrin.

How does the powder work?

If we consider the bulk product Rubit against cockroaches, its principle of action is similar: insects come into contact with the toxic substance and die from paralysis. However, the difficulty of treating a room with powder is that it does not contain attractants. Considering that the composition does not contain components attractive to cockroaches, one cannot count on the drug being highly effective. To kill insects, you need to completely spray the floor, interior shelves of cabinets, and baseboards.

It is difficult to be in such a room where everything is strewn with insecticide, especially if it is not possible to leave the home for a while. After treatment, you will have to face another problem - cleaning all surfaces. Considering that the powder particles are very small and light, they will rise into the air. If an excess amount of poison enters the human body, it can lead to poisoning.

Once in the powder, cockroaches die in 1 hour 30 minutes

In the powder itself, unable to get out of it, cockroaches die in 1 hour 15 minutes. This was verified in an experiment:

If insects get heavily soiled in the product (for example, they run on it for a long time, or fall into it on their backs, but then turn over and run away), then they die after 2.5 hours.

In conditions as close as possible to apartment conditions, the cockroaches died within 24 hours. In this case, they could eat, drink water, hide in a shelter where there was no powder, and only sometimes ran along a narrow strip of the product poured between the shelter and the drinking bowl.

This is exactly how the product works in an apartment: here cockroaches spend most of the time on a clean surface and only sometimes run over the powder where it was poured. Moreover, in the apartment they almost always have the opportunity to drink and eat. In such conditions, they will die within a day after contact with Hector.

How to use Rubit powder

The instructions for using powder Rubit state that the treatment of the room should be carried out with protective gloves and a respirator (a gauze bandage that protects the respiratory system).

Before using the powder, you will need to clear access to places where insects live.

1. Pull furniture away from the walls to treat baseboards and back panels of furniture.
2. Remove food items from the premises or hide them in the refrigerator.
3. Clean the living space and remove cockroach excrement, old dirt and fat deposits, garbage, crumbs.
4. Repair plumbing and piping.
5. Wash and disinfect the bucket so that it does not attract cockroaches.
6. Close the aquarium with a lid and turn off the compressor.

You need to sprinkle the powder throughout the house or places where insects run most often. It is recommended to place bait next to the dust so that parasites are more willing to come to the poison.

You should buy more powder to dilute it with water and wash the floor, walls, and plumbing fixtures - this will increase the effectiveness of powder Rubit.

How to use

Like any toxic substance, poison for ants in an apartment requires special handling and caution. Regardless of the form in which this product was purchased, it is strictly not recommended to touch Rubit with bare hands. Before processing the room, a person must wear special thick rubber gloves. In the case of powder, you will also need a respirator.

Rubit Zindan

Each release form has its own method of application. If the choice is Rubita Zindan:

1. Carry out a complete cleaning of the house, wash all surfaces, remove everything unnecessary.
2. Place the poison on substrates in the following places: next to water, near the trash can, baseboards, in drawers, on shelves, on tables, window sills, the backs of furniture, equipment.
3. After use, discard the substrates and wash surfaces with soap and water.

Rubit Profi Spider in granules

Rubit granules are an effective remedy for house ants. When using, it is recommended to adhere to the following rules:

1. Clean the area in advance to remove any form of contamination.
2. Clear the places where ants appear.
3. Wear gloves to prevent the product from accidentally coming into contact with your skin.
4. Sprinkle a small amount of granules onto the substrates and place these traps in all possible places.

Powder

Before using powder to poison insects, you should wear a respirator and rubber gloves. Next you need to follow the following instructions:

1. Clear access to places where ants are found.
2. Remove all products.
3. Wash the entire room thoroughly, removing old food, ant excrement, etc.
4. Repair plumbing, pipelines and other equipment where ants may be located.
5. Remove animals from the premises or hide them so that they do not accidentally inhale the powder.
6. Scatter the powder in the places most visited by ants, placing sweet baits (honey or chocolate) there.
7. To increase the effectiveness of the product, it is recommended to dilute it in water and additionally wash the walls and floor.

Killer and his capabilities

According to some reports, Killer cockroach gel (a package with a syringe and the inscription “Killer”) contains as an active ingredient an insecticide under the strange name “chloronidisalone” (0.9%). If you dig deeper, it becomes clear that such a substance is unknown to chemists and, most likely, was simply invented by marketers so as not to disclose the composition of the drug.

Be that as it may, this Russian-made product poisons cockroaches quite well, not inferior to other gels.

Gel Killer is sold in 20 ml syringes - to treat a large apartment you will need to purchase 2-3 syringes at once.

Review

“After our wedding, my husband and little daughter moved into a rented apartment and encountered a problem - cockroaches. Somehow my mother poisoned them at home when I was little, but this problem was new to me. My mother-in-law immediately brought us Tigard gel and said that these were just magic drops. We placed them in the kitchen and on the balcony along the baseboards. And sure enough, after a few days the cockroaches were no longer noticed. Recently I was looking to buy such a tube, but couldn’t find it, so I bought a similar Antius gel. I think they work the same way. The product is odorless, low price. I'll keep it in stock."

Oksana, Kharkov

Advantages and disadvantages

The jelly-like preparation is in many ways better than the powder. The main advantage is high efficiency. The effectiveness of the drug does not depend on the degree of infection of the object. If there are few cockroaches, the product is applied in smaller quantities. In case of severe infection, the gel is applied generously. In both cases the result will be good. Other positive qualities of the gel:

1. Ease of use. The product is ready for application and very easy to work with. The substance is easily squeezed out, and thanks to the thin nozzle of the syringe, narrow areas can be treated.
2. No smell. A person will not feel the attractants included in the composition. For cockroaches this is a strong smell.
3. Prolonged action. The drug continues to destroy pests over a long period: from 2 to 7 weeks, it all depends on environmental conditions. All this time, the gel retains its original structure. The insecticides included in the product are resistant to sunlight and air, but are destroyed in an acidic, alkaline environment and under the influence of high temperatures.
4. Low substance consumption.
5. The drug is invisible on surfaces because it has no color.
6. Rubit product in gel form is offered at a low price.
7. The gel is a moderately toxic drug, which means it will not harm people and animals.

There are also disadvantages to the gel-like substance. For example, it stains surfaces. The gel is a sticky, viscous substance, so after the end of the effect you will have to make an effort to clean the floors and furniture. To avoid this, use a cardboard or paper backing. However, this method will not handle bottlenecks. In addition, it is not recommended to constantly use Rubit gel. This is due to the fact that one of the active components (chlorpyrifos) is a group of organophosphorus compounds that contribute to the development of resistance in insects.

Rubit powder has many more disadvantages than positive qualities. The advantages include low cost and ease of processing (the powder is scattered over surfaces). The disadvantage of this drug is the likelihood of human poisoning, since dust particles easily enter the air. In addition, they note the difficulty of cleaning. In some hard-to-reach places, the powder may remain permanently.

Dust is a drug of average effectiveness. One of its main disadvantages is the inability to process vertical surfaces. If you consider that cockroaches crawl literally everywhere: on the walls, on the floor, on dishes, they can avoid poisoning. For this reason, the powder is often combined with other products, such as gel. However, it is better to use preparations with different types of insecticides.

Advantages and disadvantages

Rubit has been used for pest control for many years, so people already know about its effectiveness. Rubit Zindan gained particular popularity. Let's take a closer look at the strengths of the gel:

1. Safety - the gel does not stain your hands and does not rise into the air, so apartment residents can be calm about their health.
2. Easy to use - easily squeezed out of the syringe, penetrating even into inaccessible crevices.
3. No smell.
4. It works for a long time - thanks to the gel form, the effect of the product will last for 1-1.5 months, which means it will continue to kill new insects.
5. Cheap - the cost of the product does not exceed 50 rubles, which is small compared to many other imported, advertised products.
6. Colorless - will not spoil the appearance of the apartment.
7. Does not harm pets.

There is nothing that is completely positive. So the poison from ants in the apartment contains several negative aspects:

1. Gel Rubit has a sticky, viscous substance that will be extremely difficult to remove after a while from the floor or furniture. It is recommended to apply the product to pieces of paper.
2. The chlorpyrifos component is addictive to insects, so the use of Rubit should be reduced to 1.5-2 months.

The powder has slightly different properties compared to the gel. “Housekeeper Rubit” has many disadvantages:

1. Particles may be airborne.
2. The powder is more difficult to remove after disinfestation is completed.
3. In those places where it cannot be eliminated, it will remain so.
4. Only horizontal surfaces in a living room can be treated.

• Skeletal bone scintigraphy
• Rabbit soup - step-by-step recipes with rice, vermicelli and vegetables with photos
• How to cleanse the liver with folk remedies at home

To treat the walls, you can dilute the powder in water and wash the walls and floor with this solution. There is simply no chance left for the ants. Other advantages of the powder:

1. Low price - about 35 rubles per 120 g.
2. Easy to use: just sprinkle onto desired surfaces.

Anti-ant powder in granules is also often used. It has several advantages:

1. It is not sprayed into the air and does not harm humans.
2. The granules do not stick to surfaces and are easy to remove.
3. Easy to use - you just need to sprinkle it in the right places.
4. No smell.
5. It works for a long time.

There are few downsides to this product. These include:

1. Only horizontal surfaces can be processed.
2. Narrow crevices and other inaccessible places cannot be treated.

Safety

The composition of the substance is very harmful to human health, so it is recommended to use thick rubber gloves . Any contact with skin is extremely undesirable. In any case, be sure to wash your skin with soap and water. That is why it is best to apply the substance exactly to those places where small children and animals cannot reach . The product should be stored in a cool place so that it is not too warm. It is also worth checking that the sun's rays do not fall on it, this can significantly spoil the effect of the product during disinfestation. This is a one-time use drug, so you should throw it away immediately after use.

Reviews:

• “An excellent product that helped get rid of annoying cockroaches in a matter of days. I struggled with them for a very long time - almost 2 years. And only Rubit helped me in this difficult matter. True, the product is quite toxic, I had to work with gloves.”

• “The product is good, but I didn’t like the fact that it was so poisonous. There was nowhere to put the children while the apartment was being processed, so we had to close them during the apartment's maintenance. She didn’t even allow me to enter the kitchen, since everything was smeared everywhere. In a few days all the pests disappeared. Probably, the drug really had a detrimental effect on them. But now it’s as if there were never ants and cockroaches in our house.”

• “Chopping is a good remedy, even though it is toxic. I really don’t like it when you have to wear a face mask, gloves, and much more. But what can you do to permanently get rid of harmful parasites who believe that a living space is their full-fledged home. I recently purchased it and am already seeing great results. Having treated the apartment with this product, I can recommend the drug to many, since I myself learned from my own experience what Rubit is.”

It is obvious that this drug has a strong effect on parasites. And if you are tired of fighting against cockroaches and ants in your own apartment, then why not try Rubit. Reviews of the product are positive , the properties are absolutely necessary and do not give life to pests. Rubit is a very smart gel that includes a bait in the form of a delicious chocolate aroma , to which all the cockroaches and ants will flock with pleasure. This is the most effective bait, but what else is needed for complete disinfestation? All that remains is to buy the substance and wait for the result.

Action

Cypermethrin mosquito repellent
Cypermethrin 25 is an insecticidal and acaricidal substance. Acts by contact-intestinal route. It enters the mosquito body after contact with a poisoned surface, partly through the respiratory system in the first hours of treatment, while particles of poison are in the air.

Cypermethrin disrupts the functioning of the nervous system, blocks the transmission of nerve impulses, provokes paralysis and quick death. For mosquitoes, a concentration of 0.01% is lethal. The minimum amount is enough to destroy blood-sucking insects indoors and repel them outdoors.

After disinfestation of the premises, the maximum effect lasts for 2 hours. Cypermethrin gradually loses its properties. The poison is finally neutralized by using an alkaline composition - water with baking soda, laundry soap. When spraying clothing, the toxic properties persist for 2-4 hours.

Important!

Cypermethrin, when it comes into contact with the skin, causes an allergic reaction, in the respiratory tract - headache, dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, decreased blood pressure, and general weakness. The mosquito repellent must be used strictly according to the instructions.

Rubit reviews

The drug is very good. With his help, we got rid of cockroaches in the house in a few days. It is important to correctly follow the instructions and rules - to work in protective equipment.

Anna, Kursk

Despite the fact that Rubit is quite toxic, it helped me a lot, and I quickly got rid of the Prussians in the apartment. I used the gel. I did everything according to the instructions.

Olga, Voronezh

I don’t have cockroaches, but the Prussians are creeping in from my neighbors. Therefore, I decided to buy Rubit chalk and, for preventive purposes, I treated the apartment. I drew chalk stripes near the front door so that parasites could not get in from the neighbors, and even treated it on the balcony.

Rubit is an effective tool, as confirmed by numerous positive user reviews. The gel containing additional “tasty” additives in the form of chocolate has proven itself especially well - a bait to which cockroaches respond with pleasure.
