Aerosol Cockroaches choose apartments and houses where comfortable conditions are created for them as their habitat. Not only are insects a nuisance to property owners, they are carriers of millions of bacteria. Many domestic and foreign manufacturers produce products aimed at pest control. One of them is Russian. Its extensive range includes aerosol Clean House from cockroaches.
On a note!
As a result of their research, scientists from France and America came to the conclusion that cockroaches living in concrete buildings cause the so-called “fatigue virus” in people. Doctors believe that microbes carried by “concrete inhabitants” suck vitality from the human body. As a result, premature aging occurs.
Features of the drug, principle of action
For many consumers, an aerosol product is the most preferable. The drug contains 2 active substances:
- cypermethrin (0.18%);
- tetramethrin (0.2%).
Both are poison for cockroaches. But, acting simultaneously, they enhance the effect and reduce addiction to the drug. In addition to active substances, the product contains: catalyst, solvent, synergist, propane-butane. When sprayed, Clean House blocks the functioning of the nervous system, causing paralysis in cockroaches, leading to death. Retains its properties on surfaces for 20 – 30 days. The product has a faint scent of chamomile, which is due to the presence of tetramethrin in the composition.
Precautionary measures
Although the product has low toxicity, some precautions should be taken:
- there should be no people or pets in the room where processing takes place;
- You should wear thick gloves on your hands, and you should also wear clothes that completely cover your body. A respirator or medical mask and safety glasses are required;
- Windows must be open during processing;
- after treatment, the room must be washed and thoroughly ventilated;
- After use, wash your hands, face and body.
Impact on human health
If you follow all precautions, protect your skin, eyes and respiratory tract, there will be no poisoning.
The drug can harm your health only in the first hours of treatment, then the molecules disintegrate in the air and are harmless.
Environmental impact
You can’t just spray an aerosol into the air—it’s ineffective. “Clean House” products in any form of release have minimal harm to the environment - they are certified and labeled “Nature Product”. The tetramethrin contained quickly disintegrates in the air if it is not mixed with other chemicals.
Important! The safety radius is five meters.

Chemical composition
calls it a new generation insecticide. This group includes poisons intended to kill insects - both flying and moving on the ground. The insecticide contains two pyrethroids.
- Cypermethrin. A contact-intestinal substance that, when entering the body of an insect, paralyzes its muscle tissue. At first, the bug ceases to control its own movements, and after a short period of time it dies. The insecticide kills both nymphs (larvae) and mature individuals.
- Tetramethrin. A contact substance also designed to combat various “household” insects, ranging from fleas and flies to bedbugs and moths. Upon contact with arthropods, they are instantly paralyzed.
Combining two representatives of the pyrethroid group into one drug leads to an increased effect, which can negatively affect fish and reptiles living in the house. Therefore, before starting baiting, it is necessary to remove the aquarium or terrarium from the apartment for a while.
Pyrethroids are synthetic analogues of pyrethrins. The latter are natural insecticides contained in some representatives of the flora. For example, in Dolmatian chamomile or chrysanthemums.
Reviews

When I discovered cockroaches in my apartment, I was scared. I've never seen them before. She ran to the nearest store. The seller advised me to buy Clean House aerosol. She told me to read the instructions carefully and do everything in accordance with them. Which is what I did. The cockroaches are gone and I don't see them anymore.
Tatiana, Alushta
A clean house in the form of an aerosol simply saved our apartment from cockroaches. True, on the advice of friends, I supplemented it with powder. We were pleased with the result.
Lisa, Artemovsk
I do not recommend buying Clean House products; the aerosol did not help me at all. First I saw cockroaches lying around and did the cleaning (all according to the instructions). A week later they appeared again.

Negative effects on humans
A “clean house” is relatively safe. However, if precautions are not taken, the poison can harm living beings (in particular, humans and pets).
Toxic effects on people occur when inhaling insecticide vapors or through dermal contact with it. It has been scientifically proven that there will be no serious consequences for a warm-blooded creature when touching the poison. The maximum is a skin rash that will go away quickly. But if it enters the stomach, a group C carcinogen, which is tetramethrin, can cause the following symptoms of poisoning:
If one or more of the listed symptoms appears, the patient should get access to fresh air and take a sorbent. Even before the ambulance arrives, the drug will begin to act on toxins, break them down, and remove them from the body.
Gel
Gel against cockroaches “Clean House” successfully fights against parasites. However, its effectiveness is lower than that of powder. But among the advantages, consumers highlight ease of use and safety. In addition, it can be used to prevent the appearance of insects.
If cockroaches have just appeared, then the best remedy is gel. It is applied along the baseboards, along the top of the kitchen unit. After contact with the drug, insects infect each other. Therefore, the effect is achieved after a few days.
The action is based on the fact that the gel lingers on the legs of cockroaches. The insect dies, but there is already a large amount of poison in its body. It is so arranged that relatives eat the dead insect and thereby also receive a portion of poison.
The product is supplied in tubes or syringes. This adds convenience when using it.
How do traps work?
Once inside the trap, the cockroach eats the poison particles. At the same time, the poison remains on its paws. Thus, one specimen infects the rest of its relatives, “cross-pollination” occurs, and the entire flock dies within a few days.
The validity period of one trap is 2 months. Users note the ease of use. The box can be placed under the kitchen unit or installed on any horizontal surface using adhesive tape.
Important! The “Clean House” traps for cockroaches, reviews confirm this, are completely safe. They have no odor or harmful fumes. Thanks to a chain reaction, you can rid your home of a large population of cockroaches. Many people advise using them as a preventive measure.
Powder
The composition is almost identical to the aerosol. The difference lies in the release form and the greater concentration of chemical components. This is allowed. After all, the powder should not be sprayed. It also contains piperonyl butoxide, which significantly enhances its insecticidal properties.
However, it should be remembered that such a compound is dangerous not only for domestic animals, but also for humans. Therefore, accidental ingestion should be completely avoided.
Reviews show that the powder works well against small rodents in cellars and country houses. The scope of its application is quite wide, but requires caution.
Let's sum it up
Of course, the product has earned its popularity due to its effectiveness and good results when used at home. But you always need to take into account two accompanying factors: effectiveness and safety. After all, products that are capable of fighting a large number of cockroaches are dangerous for humans and animals. And those that are minimally hazardous to health are ineffective against severe infections.
If you do use strong pesticides, be sure to follow safety precautions and strictly follow the instructions. Remember that you can always contact specialized services, which will allow you to avoid contact with poisons and get a positive result.
