ZOECONGentrol Point Source IGR ZOE1007

As someone who has tried numerous pest control solutions over the years, Zoecon Gentrol Point Source has quickly become a staple in my household. It may not deliver that dramatic “instant kill” effect like sprays or traps, but what it does offer is something far more valuable—sustainable, long-term control by targeting the root of the problem: the breeding cycle.What I Like:• Silent But Effective: These point sources are discreet, with no odor, no mess, and no dangerous chemicals floating in the air. Once placed, you can forget about them—but the roaches won’t.• Breaks the Reproductive Cycle: That’s the real genius of this product. It contains an insect growth regulator (IGR) that essentially sterilizes roaches, preventing them from reaching adulthood or reproducing. Over time, this drastically reduces the population.• Easy to Use: No mixing or spraying. Just squeeze the activator to release the IGR, peel and place where it's needed. I’ve used them in kitchen cabinets, under sinks, and behind appliances. Best results have came from putting one on the wall above our dog food & water bowls, which are notoriously heavy traffic areas. They stay in place and don’t interfere with daily life.• Results Over Time: Within a few weeks, I noticed a sharp decline in sightings. After two months, I rarely see a roach—if ever. I now use these proactively every 3-4 months to maintain a pest-free environment.Pro Tips:• Combine with bait stations or gel if you want immediate results while Gentrol works in the background.• Don’t expect instant gratification—this is about long-term control, not overnight annihilation.• Label the placement dates. Each disk lasts about 90 days, so it helps to keep track.Final Thoughts:Zoecon Gentrol Point Source is a professional-grade tool that works quietly but effectively. It’s perfect for anyone serious about long-term roach control and looking for a non-intrusive way to manage pests without harsh chemicals. Highly recommended for households with kids, pets, or anyone looking to avoid repeated chemical treatments.

Convenient to use and although it seems pricey, it is a good value for how effective and long lasting it is. The box contains 20 discs- one is supposed to treat up to 75 square feet for 3 months. I use them a little more liberally than one for every 75 square feet, just to ensure the whole area is covered. They make no mess, no smell, and are easy enough to tuck out of sight. After a few months, the roaches stop coming back entirely. Keep treating and you'll never see them. It *works*. I used it at first combined with some bait gel (advion) but now just the Gentrol is enough to keep roaches from ever coming back and infesting. This is in an area that would normally be considered "prime real estate" for German cockroaches. They can't survive or grow around Gentrol discs.Highly recommended if you need real solutions for roaches.

Bought for bugs in the kitchen. It seems to help but I bought it in conjunction with what our pest guy uses.

Zoecon Gentrol Point Source IGR ZOE1007. This IGR concept targeting the young bugs and its eggs reproduction system is awesome. Still the users have to setup a backup pest killer baits for adult pest control. I will stock this product yearly!

Somebody recommended this to me and let’s just say it definitely works

After a month and a half, no changes. We have a Smokey brown cockroach infestation and none of the adults have crinkled wings and there are newborn nymphs running around everywhere. Also the discs have no indicator if the liquid was dispensed properly, which is a poor design. We used the whole box of discs and all are the same. We followed the instructions, pressed, heard the click, but the click also sounds like you are breaking plastic, and you don’t see anything so it’s hard to know if it was dispensed or we were just breaking plastic, but it was the same with every one. We set them out in all areas of activity, and we’ve seen close to 50 adult Smokey brown roaches over a month and a half and none have had crinkled wings, thus the product doesn’t appear to be doing it’s job. It’s a waste a money and worthless plastic.In case others are wondering if they have a Smokey brown roach infestation, all ages look different. The babies (nymphs) are black with greyish or whitish horizontal stripes and whitish tipped antennae. The teenagers are reddish brown with brownish bands, the adults are dark brown all over with wings and are great flyers. All Smokey brown roaches are attracted to light, which is different from all of the other roach species. If you want to catch some Smokey brown babies, plug a zevo flying insect trap into the wall. The blue UV light and other dead flying insects attract them and they will get stuck on the trap. We bought the Zevo traps and similar brands to help with our drain fly infestation and discovered a few roach babies there too. If anything changes, I’ll update the review. But until then we will try other methods. Hope that helps someone!

This is not an instant solution. Once you crack these and install them, the roaches dont just dissapear. This impacts the life cycle so that new roaches are not introduced. Do it for at least 2 cycles and i would suggest doing the refresh at 2months early on on until you see the reduction. I've been using them consistently for a few months with refreshing them and I don't see the critters any more.

Ease of use and can be placed just about anywhere
