- Triple-action formulation gives pest management professionals (PMPs) in California a powerful tool for more complete cockroach control
GREENSBORO, N.C., USA, July 23, 2025 ― Syngenta is announcing the registration of Advion® Trio cockroach gel bait in the state of California. Launched nationally in March 2024, Advion Trio combines three active ingredients with different modes of action, including two insect growth regulators (IGRs), to stop cockroaches at every stage of their life cycle.
"We’re excited that PMPs in California can now experience the benefits of Advion Trio, which has been particularly effective for PMPs in other states who use it in their rotations for heavy infestations,” said Marshall Gaster, head of marketing for Professional Pest Management at Syngenta. “This California registration marks a milestone in our ongoing commitment to provide all PMPs with a robust portfolio of cockroach solutions backed by extensive research and development.”
The IGRs in Advion Trio, pyriproxyfen and novaluron, prevent first- and late-instar nymphs from maturing into adults, while the active ingredient indoxacarb targets adult populations. Its highly attractive bait matrix makes it ideal for tough cleanout jobs in residential and commercial spaces, including food-handling establishments, as directed by the label. Additionally, Advion Trio can be used as part of the SecureChoice℠ Cockroach Assurance Program for guaranteed control when following the program’s protocols.
Advion Trio is the latest addition to the toolbox of industry-leading Syngenta gel baits, including:
- Advion Cockroach gel bait
- Advion Evolution cockroach gel bait
- Optigard® Cockroach gel bait
- Advion Ant gel bait
- Optigard Ant gel bait
"Our extensive laboratory and field testing have demonstrated that the unique combination of active ingredients in Advion Trio delivers exceptional performance against challenging cockroach populations,” said King Nelson, Ph.D., formulations development chemist at Syngenta. “The California registration of Advion Trio represents the final step in ensuring all PMPs nationwide now have access to this powerful tool for their integrated pest management programs."
