OrthoOrthene Ant and Roach Killer, Provides Long-Lasting Insect Control, for Indoor and Outdoor Use, 1 lb.

There are two Orthene products with different labeling, Both are 100% effective on fire ant mounds. The Fire Ant uses the chemical trade named asaphate which you can buy by the pound, the Ant and Roach uses a nameless organic compound and is significantly less expensive and easier to dispense being a fine non-clumping powder with a built in shaker cap. The Fire Ant works fast. The Ant and Roach takes longer. Whichever, don’t touch the mounds even though it's satisfying to scratch them open and see thousands of ants swarm, the workers isolate the queen in an emergency. You get the queen, you get the colony.

This is a great product! We are using in tandem with an indoor product. But the indoor product alone wasn't doing it. We live in a mobile home park & the infestation is coming from outside (several neighbors & they are in the grass. Crazy.) We needed something to prevent & kill outside. And we have pets so we need to be careful. This was stellar and will be buying in the future because we will need it! Buy this is your hands a roach problem! (May be used inside as well. We just didn't want it near our cats.)

Been using this for 3 days and I have not seen any dead roaches. Been having issues with roaches in my kitchen and thought this product could work but it seems that it does not have any effect on NYC roaches. Just saw they had a family gathering on my kitchen counter in the middle of the night. I find it difficult that I have to form a line using my finger of the powder make it look clean in my kitchen which they don't provide with any tools. This is not a indoor product more like an outdoor if you ask me.

Does what it’s intended to do . I always find roaches dead and it works so quick . It also kills a lot of different pests which was prettt cool .

Was great to kill fire ants and cockroach. The bad point is that kill others good insects too like spiders or bees.

A few months after moving into my new apartment, I started noticing signs of cockroaches. My landlord sprayed, but the problem kept coming back and I honestly felt so overwhelmed. I decided to try Ortho Orthene Ant and Roach Killer, and it completely changed everything. After using it, I only saw two roaches and then nothing after that. It gave me so much relief and peace of mind knowing the problem was finally under control. Plus, I appreciate that a little goes a long way, I felt confident knowing my home is protected, and I won’t waste money on other brands anymore. Highly recommend this if you want something that truly works!

Placed out side . Parents used years ago. Love this stuff and it works

My husband spreaded the power according to instructions but we're still seeing small roach around. Seems like they only avoid to walk where the poison is but still going through the other way lol
