Bengal Roach Spray Gold Review

Bengal Roach Spray Gold Review

Roaches are some of the most hated insects that we commonly face in the household. Because they tend to colonize and form nests within walls or other hidden spaces, a severe infestation can develop without anyone realizing it. Worst of all, roaches can be one of the most challenging insects to kill. Bengal’s roach spray specifically targets cockroaches and begins killing them instantly. Not only is it a quick fix, but it also keeps killing roaches for up to six months. The long-term effects will prevent future infestations in and around the home. We read through Amazon reviews and found that a large number of reviewers only needed to respray once every six to eight months.

Ease of Use

Bengal Roach Spray comes in a simple, easy to use aerosol can. There is no need for any attachments or the purchase of additional products. It is recommended to spray in crevices such as behind baseboards, refrigerators, sinks, cabinets, and areas where you’ve seen roaches. Make sure you pay special attention to doors and windows where cockroaches may be able to make their way inside. Storages areas such as closets are also hiding places for roaches and other colonizing insects. Bengal Gold Roach Spray should control roach populations for up to six months, but some users noted effectiveness for six to eight months.

Ingredients / Materials

The main active ingredient in Bengal Gold Roach Spray is permethrin. Permethrin is a common and highly effective insecticide. While the permethrin found in bug sprays is a synthetic human-made material, it mimics natural chemicals that are in chrysanthemums. Permethrin affects insects that ingest or touch it when they crawl across a layer of it. It attacks the nervous system, which causes decreased ability to control muscles and eventually death in insects. Permethrin is the ingredient that begins killing cockroaches. While it may not kill them on the spot, Bengal Gold Roach Spray uses another active ingredient to ensure long-lasting effectiveness. That second ingredient is nylar, an insect growth regulator. Nylar works to prevent juvenile roaches from maturing into breeding adults. It also sterilizes roaches that have already matured to adulthood and can lay eggs. This prevents new infestations for months.

Is Bengal Roach Spray Safe for Families and Pets?

Bengal Gold Roach Spray is safe to use indoors when you follow instructions appropriately. The manufacturer recommends wearing a face mask when spraying to prevent inhalation. Take care to make sure all adults, children, and pets are out of the room before you spray. The formula should be allowed to dry before re-entering the room. Before returning to the area where you sprayed, make sure the room is well ventilated, and there are no longer any fumes. Be aware that certain pets may be more sensitive to this spray than others. Always read and follow all safety instructions provided by the manufacturer. Users suggested leaving the room for several hours to allow the spray to dry and any fumes to completely dissipate.

Kills Multiple Types of Insects

Taurus SC may seem to be a little more Although Bengal Gold Roach Spray is specifically geared to target roaches, it can be used to eliminate and control several types of insects. Some of the bugs that this formula works well against include sowbugs, crickets, ants, centipedes, and silverfish amongst others. Many reviewers saw great results when using Bengal to get rid of fire ants, roaches, and palmetto bugs.

Infestation Control

A lot of bug sprays are only formulated to kill the bugs on direct contact. While the sprays that kill on contact are great for dealing with the bugs that are in sight, they may not get to the root of the problem, which is the breeding colony. Roaches and other colonizing insects keep their nests hidden and out of reach. As long as the nest is safe, a roach infestation will continue to thrive. Bengal Gold Roach Spray uses a unique dry formula that can reach beyond the limitations of typical bug sprays. It also creates a barrier and continues to infect roaches with nylar, a growth inhibitor that prevents the insects from breeding. This way, the entire colony is affected and eradicated.

Does Bengal Roach Spray Work?

Bengal Gold Roach Spray has many stellar reviews on Amazon. Most reviewers mention that Bengal is their go-to pesticide for roach and ant problems. While this product tends to be slightly more expensive than other sprays, a lot of users felt that the quality made up for the additional cost. The reviews that we read mentioned that this product continued working for even longer than suggested on the manufacturer’s label. Some also stated that the need to reapply only came up about once every eight months.

Suggested Application

Before spraying Bengal Gold Roach Spray, be sure to wear a face mask to prevent inhalation. Make sure that the room is clear of all persons and pets. You can spray in any crevices where roaches might like to hide such as behind counters, cabinets, baseboards, around doors, and in storage areas. The spray will penetrate deep into cracks, so there’s no need to purchase an additional extension tube. After spraying, you should leave the room and allow the product to dry before re-entering. Be sure the room is well ventilated to help with this process.

Though the spray is known to dry quickly, there could still be some messy residue if you’ve used too much. However, the product will wipe up easily if so. Be sure to monitor the treated areas periodically to determine if you see fewer pests. You can retreat every 4 weeks, but many reviewers found that the spray killed off bugs much longer than the recommended time.
