So I pulled my boat out last night and it's covered with roach feces I spotted several live insects in the lockers and bilge. YUCK! I keep it covered bout obviously there are several access points for insects. Anyone have a clever solution to this other than standard insect treatments for the home?

Gonna be tough with the moisture that will be in those areas. Lots of nooks and crannies for them to hide in. Roach bait and try to mix in IGR (basically birth control) to stem reproduction. Look up "Gentrol point source" for the IGR (use a bunch) and Maxforce Magnum gel bait. You can also use the roach bait "pucks" as well. I'd stay away from aerosols and liquids (not sure they are labeled for usage in a boat). Hope that helps, PM me with any questions. I manage a pest control company up here in Michigan.Originally posted by tgator96 View Post -
Roach motel. Roaches check in but they don’t check out. LOL!Originally posted by gobluemike2142

Roaches usually go where the food is did you leave any snacks on the boat? They tent houses that have been infested in Florida. Maybe check with a professional exterminator?Comment

What about using a bug bomb?Comment

It's not going to penetrate all the places the little suckers can hide. Also, the "bomb" won't do anything for the egg capsules that are laid.Originally posted by markj View Post
