Q: Is this really safe to use around food? A: Yes – just don’t place the baits directly on counters where you prepare food. Put them underneath or behind appliances.

Q: How long does it take to see results? A: Most people notice dramatic reduction within 12–24 hours. Complete elimination can take 2–4 nights if the infestation is severe.

Q: Where can I buy Plaster of Paris? A: Any hardware store (Home Depot, Lowe’s), craft section of Walmart, or Amazon (search “plaster of Paris 4 lb bag”).
