Hi Everyone 

Does anyone know exactly how to use the 'Efi trap' to prevent cockroaches! I saw a live one in the house for the first time this visit! I don't want to get back to find the house full of them! I'm alone and will be in September. I'm a technophobe with limited resources so can't copy to Google Translate. My DIY shop no longer stocks Cucal products that were really good

Thanks for your help in advance. (This product is for the house not the garden)

Thanks Darro but that seems to be just a description of the product not how to use it. Eg there's a word that says cut but where do I cut? Do I need to remove that product by hand etc. 

Thanks anyway for your prompt reply.. I have a phobia of.Cockroaches

Hi Julie. You would be better off spraying ORO around, window sill and edges of all the rooms. It lasts for a year once sprayed even after washing the floors. I get mine from Consum about €6, but well worth it, it even sorts ants out. Good luck 👍

Its the time of the year! I (as above use "ORO") My Spanish neighbour explains "MATA" is better.
