Apply the paste liberally under and behind refrigerators, stove, sink, dishwasher, washing machines, and dryer; into openings and around drains, sewers, manholes, water pipe, and electrical conduits.  In cracks and crevices along baseboards and in corners of cabinets, cupboards, and closets.  Remove all lower drawers in kitchen and bathroom cabinets, bedroom dressers, and chests of drawers, then apply liberally into each corner of the drawer wells. 

Directions for applying in new construction to control cockroaches: When treating large areas, such as wall voids, soffit and subcabinet voids in new and existing construction, apply the paste liberally.

Crack and Crevice Treatment

Food and Feed Handling Establishments: Places other than private residences in which exposed food or feed is held, processing, prepared or served.

Food Area -- Application limited to crack and crevice treatment only: Includes areas for receiving, storage, packing (canning, wrapping, boxing) preparing, edible waste storage and enclosed processing systems such as mills, dairies, bakeries, restaurants, or anywhere food or feed is stored, processed, prepared, or served.  Serving areas (when food is exposed and facility is in operation) also would be considered food area.

Apply in small amounts directly into cracks and crevices using suitable equipment capable of applying insecticide directly into cracks and crevices, in points between different elements of construction, between equipment and floors, openings leading to void and hollow spaces in walls, equipment legs and bases, conduits, motor housing, where cockroaches hide.

Care should be taken to avoid depositing the product onto exposed food and feed processing, preparation and serving surfaces, or introducing the material into food and or feed processing surfaces to avoid contamination.

Application of this product in the food and feed areas of food handling establishments other than as a crack and crevice treatment, are not permitted.

Serving Areas -- Facilities where prepared foods are served, such as dining rooms, but excluding areas where foods may be prepared or held.  Apply as a spot treatment to selective surfaces such as baseboards, under elements of construction into cracks and crevices.  Avoid treating surfaces likely to be contacted by food.  (Do not apply when facility is in operation or foods are exposed.)

Non-Food Areas: Include garbage rooms, lavatories(Floor drains to sewer entries and vestibules), offices, locker rooms, machine rooms, boiler rooms, garages, mop closets, and storage (after canning or bottling).

Apply to baseboard areas, around water pipes, surfaces behind and beneath sinks, lockers, tables, pallets and similar areas where insects hide or through which they may enter.

Note: Do not apply to areas which have been recently sprayed with insecticide or spray insecticides over bait placements, as this may cause the bait to become repellent.  Do not place bait in locations that are routinely washed, as bait will be removed by washing.  Do not place treatments in locations where routine cleansing operations may transfer diluted bait to food or food preparation surfaces.

Numerous smaller placements will provide faster control than few larger spots, especially for German cockroach control.
