Abstract
Disclosed is a substantially water-free insecticidal granular bait suitable for controlling crawling insects such as cockroaches and ants. The bait includes an insecticide, several feeding stimulants which are typically carbohydrates and proteins, and a lipid. These bait compositions are in granular form, which are useful for application in hard-to-reach areas and are particularly useful in wet conditions, as well as hot, dry areas.
