roach bait

Bug trap lure

Roach bait is poison designed to kill cockroaches, typically formulated to attract them with food-like substances mixed with slow-acting insecticide.

The delayed toxicity allows roaches to return to their nest and spread the poison to others: I put roach bait under the sink and behind the fridge.
