The drug "Dohloks" is made by Azurit Plus. The company is part of a large "Oboronhim software", engaged in the development and production of household insecticides since 1998. All products pass quality control and have a certificate.

Gel base allows the drug to maintain its viscous structure for a long time, and preservatives provide a long shelf life.
Operating principle
The action of the insecticide is not instantaneous, death occurs in the insect a few hours after poisoning.
One of the most important components in the composition of the pest is bait, which attracts cockroaches, forcing them to try an unknown substance on the taste.
The distribution of Dohloks is fast.
Cannibalism is developed in domestic cockroaches (eating their own kind): poisoned dead pest is devoured by its relatives, while receiving its own portion of poison.
In addition, particles of a viscous gel stick to cockroach and, thus infected individuals, spread the deadly substance among its numerous family.
To make the result of this insecticide more productive, it is desirable to use the gel together with traps produced by the same manufacturer.
