Get or Get is a modern, widely used product that destroys not only cockroaches, but also many other insects: fleas, bed bugs, ants, etc. The drug Get against cockroaches, consumer reviews of which are mostly positive, has established itself as an effective and efficient means for controlling insect pests.
Composition of the drug
The active ingredient in Get is chlorpyrifos 5%. This is an insecticide belonging to the class of organophosphorus compounds. It has been used to control insects for about 20 years. During this time, the substance has established itself as a reliable broad-spectrum agent. The compound retains its toxic effect for a long time. Get's products use a unique technology - the active insecticide is placed in polymer capsules. Chlorpyrifos is found under a microscopic capsule shell.
Information. The Get bottle contains billions of nano-capsules containing insecticide.
Microcapsules are in an aqueous environment, stabilizers make the composition homogeneous. Chlorpyrifos belongs to the second class of danger to humans; the use of an insecticide under a polymer shell reduces the level of toxicity to humans.
Get is a leader among insect repellents
The balanced composition of the product allows you to treat premises without eviction of owners or moving furniture. “Get” is odorless and does not have a toxic effect on humans. A simple and at the same time safe drug quickly became in demand among users, and its popularity is constantly growing.
The “Get” product (not to be confused with Gett) is the undoubted leader among insect control drugs.
You can buy two varieties of this product in the retail chain, but they are almost identical in composition, the only difference being the labels and the design itself.
How confusing is everything here?
As already noted, a heated discussion has developed around the Gett product regarding who is the owner of the trademark, whose website appeared on the network first, and whose product is real and effective, and whose is fake. It is quite difficult to understand all this fuss; we will only describe our vision of the situation; the possibility is actually a different reality.
There is a fairly old website on the Internet called gett.ru, which positions itself as a distributor of the most effective product under the Gett brand. It is this spelling with two letters “t” at the end of the word that should symbolize the quality of the product. This site also says that the Gett brand is a subsidiary of the huge American chemical concern Dow Chemical, which has been one of the national American manufacturers in the chemical industry for more than a hundred years.
On the Dow Chemical website itself, we did not find any information that the concern has at least some connection to the production of final products for humans, including products for controlling domestic insects. This huge concern with offices around the world is engaged in the production of chemical raw materials for their subsequent use in the production of final consumer goods.
However, this still does not mean anything; it is quite possible that the chemistry, the formula of which is known to Dow Chemical, is used to produce Gett, we just could not find information about it.
As for the site gett.ru, they do not take responsibility for using the Gett trademark, but only distribute (produce?) a drug called Master 250. This drug is called on the site a complete analogue of Gett.
As for the drug Get, it also has its own website, even a whole regional group of mirrors, where the drug under this name is quite actively distributed. The headquarters of this manufacturer is located in the city of Yekaterinburg, there are representative offices in some major cities of Russia. On the get66.ru website you can also find dissatisfaction with counterfeits, and, of course, a lot of advertising telling that their product is the best.
What product to purchase is a personal matter for each person. We cannot take responsibility and say which is better - Get, Get, Gett or Master 250. But we can confidently recommend trying both of these in practice in order to understand for yourself which one really helps and which one just doesn’t. fake. However, for some reason it seems that both of these remedies will show good effectiveness. Most likely, all of these products have the same formula, at least with regard to the working insecticidal substance, and everything else is secondary.
Application of insecticide in a residential area
The drug should be sprayed on hard surfaces. Pay special attention to:
- Ventilation duct;
- Areas near the trash can;
- Surfaces under the bathtub and near the toilet with a sink;
- Skirting boards, doorways;
- Space between tiles.
It is not necessary to treat the entire area of the room with the product. It is enough to spray it in those places where insects have been noticed. Thanks to its high efficiency, the drug will destroy all insects. To prevent the drug from reducing its properties, you should not carry out wet cleaning after treatment.
To prevent your child from coming into contact with the drug, it is better to remove it from the house during treatment. For very small children, it is necessary to wait 8-10 hours; for older children, 5-7 hours is enough; after this time, wipe the surfaces that the child touches with a soap-soda solution so that the drug does not get on the child’s skin.
Attention!
The safety of the drug is ensured if all rules of use are followed. If violated, you can get seriously poisoned.
Mechanism of action
The insecticide is able to penetrate the body of red and black cockroaches in three ways:
- through the respiratory organs;
- along with the food eaten;
- through the coverings of the body.
The drug in the form of an aqueous suspension solution is applied to various surfaces. Upon contact with them, the insect catches hundreds of invisible capsules with a toxic substance on its paws. Upon contact with water, the granules are activated. After some time, chlorpyrifos begins to seep to the surface of the shell. During this period, cockroaches manage to bring the insecticide into their nest and infect their relatives.
Once in the insect's body, the compound causes tremors, spasms and paralysis. All life support systems fail and death occurs. The use of capsules ensures a prolonged effect of Get. The period of its activity is up to 180 days. The drug is effective in controlling a large number of household pests:
- cockroaches;
- bedbugs;
- flies;
- ants;
- fleas;
- mosquitoes;
- ticks
Plus microcapsules Get
Microcapsules are a form of drug release in which a microdose of a substance in any form (liquid, gel, powder) is enclosed in a shell made of plastic, cellulose or other substance.
If the capsule is preserved, the substance can remain dormant for quite a long time and be released as it breaks down.
Encapsulating the poison in microcapsules during the manufacture of Get allows you to:
- maintain its effect for a long time (in Get – up to 6 months);
- reduce the impact on people living in the home;
- block the smell of a toxic substance;
- ensure that capsules stick to the legs of insects and not to the surfaces of furniture and the floor;
- block the path of “scout” insects into the room, not scaring them away, but killing them;
- ensure spread to inaccessible places (nests) on the legs of parasites.
The technology for producing microcapsules requires high-quality equipment and qualified personnel, which creates a high cost of the initial product (1 ml of suspension can contain up to 700 thousand microcapsules).
But the price is justified - Get is one of the highest quality brands on the market of household insect repellents, which continues to work long after spraying.
Microcapsules do not contain dyes that can contaminate the surface and require additional cleaning.
Lyudmila, Simferopol:
“I’m afraid of all kinds of chemicals, but I can’t stand cockroaches. The sales guys advised me to take Get, dilute it and spray it everywhere. I was afraid to splash everywhere, so I only walked behind the bedside tables. I liked that the apartment didn’t even smell of poison. You need to spray more in the hole for ventilation, they say, then there won’t be any at all.”
Opinions
Reviews about the product:
- I decided to buy the product when I noticed several cockroaches in the kitchen. I have two children, so I was looking for a safe drug and came across Get. The price, of course, is not small, but the effect amazed me. Literally a few days later, dead insects began to be detected. A week later there was no trace of them left. The children are healthy, no one was hurt.”
- “I decided to buy Get because I tried a lot of other products, there was no effect. Let me note right away that there was a smell, and quite unpleasant. But on the second day I found the first victims. Three weeks passed, I didn’t see any live cockroaches anymore, which I’m very happy about.”
If cockroaches “rule” your house, be sure to start an active fight against them with the “Get” product!
How to distinguish a fake?
The product is often counterfeited due to its popularity and cost. The price may vary either up or down.
The main features of the original drug Total:
- white opaque plastic bottle;
- original yellow label with red shield and name in black letters and production date pressed into the paper;
- a foil membrane covering the neck with the Get logo;
- The drug has a faint odor of alcohol and oranges.
You need to order and buy the drug only through trusted sellers with good reviews or the manufacturer’s website.
Nikita, Saransk:
“Get had to be used as protection from neighboring insects - they crawled with terrible force. One thorough treatment was enough - not a single mustachioed animal had been seen in the kitchen for more than a year. The product is expensive, but reliable.”
Methods of using Get drugs

How to choose a quality bedbug poison

Naturally, the effect after their use is radically different from what was expected, therefore, in order not to get into trouble, you should carefully select and study the purchased anti-bedbug products.
- The original drug "Get" comes in a white bottle with opaque walls, which prevents the product from interacting with sunlight.
- The correct name of the tool is Get; any name changes are not allowed.
- The expiration date of the drug is not just printed on the label, but stamped on paper.
- The contents of the Get bottle are protected from prying eyes not only by a sealed lid, but also by additional foil around the perimeter of the jar.
- The suspension has a pure white or creamy hue, practically no different smell - there is a citrus aroma with notes of alcohol, the smell of gasoline and any solvents is completely eliminated.
The discrepancy between any of the above signs indicates that this is a counterfeit drug, so it is better to refrain from purchasing it.
The packaging with the product contains instructions and gloves.
The Get Express package includes:
- 1 bottle of concentrated emulsion;
- Instructions for use;

Room treatment
Before using the Get suspension against cockroaches, it is necessary to perform preparatory work, which includes several steps:
- Carrying out general cleaning of the house. All debris should be removed, especially paying attention to crumbs and food debris.
- Finding cockroach nests. The best way is to go into the room at night, when insects are active, and turn on the light. They will start to scatter, I head to my shelter. It is necessary to trace their path. Favorite places for cockroaches: behind cabinets and refrigerators, under baseboards, bathtubs, and sinks.
- Cut off access to water. Moisture-loving insects will not survive in such conditions. A cockroach can live without food for almost a month, and without water for a week.
- Prevent the migration of insects from the neighboring apartment. To do this, you need to seal the cracks around the drains in the bathroom and kitchen with sealant.
- People and pets should be removed from the area being treated. If there is an aquarium, it is also taken out. The absence time will be 5-8 hours. During this period, the rooms are treated and the composition dries.
Attention. It is recommended to use three Get products when treating premises: Total, Express and Dry. The combination of drugs guarantees 100% extermination of any synanthropic insects. They disappear within 3-14 days, the rate of extermination depends on the degree of spread and persistence of the population.

Preparation of the solution

- Get concentrated cockroach repellent;
- water;
- spray;
- container for mixing the solution.
Before preparing the composition for treatment, the bottle with the drug must be shaken thoroughly. The optimal concentration of insecticide is 1:10; with a small number of insects, 1:15 is sufficient. The water should be at room temperature (22-25°). The solution is stirred until homogeneous. The finished composition is poured into a spray bottle.
Furniture should be moved away from the walls to allow access to baseboards and the backs of cabinets. The solution is evenly sprayed onto cabinet furniture, walls, slopes, bathrooms, sewer pipes, the space behind the stove, washing machine and other household appliances. Work takes place with windows and doors closed. The composition is left for 2-3 hours until completely dry. After this, the room is ventilated.
Attention. The prepared solution is stored for 1 day. A printed bottle of concentrate is suitable for use for 5 months.
Means of protection
When working with chemicals, it is imperative to protect the respiratory tract, mucous membranes, exposed skin and eyes. Before you start processing the room, you will need to stock up on the following items:
- latex gloves;
- respirator or mask;
- glasses.
Protective equipment is put on at the stage of mixing the solution, and removed after completion of treatment.
What kind of remedy?
Externally, the drug is a cream-colored suspension with a slight odor of alcohol and oranges. Get is a concentrated product that requires dilution to the desired state before treating the room. Produced by the Russian LLC GET Biotechnologies, with facilities in Yekaterinburg.
The drug is considered a professional insecticide and is approved for use in disinfection in children's institutions, medical institutions, cafes and restaurants.
It is not dangerous for people and animals; the original form of retention of the toxic substance allows you to maintain the effect of prolonged exposure for up to six months. Contact of the drug with the skin does not cause irritation or severe allergic reactions.
Goeth's predecessor on the market had a similar effect, but to a lesser extent, which earned him recognition from buyers. The drug is not widely sold; you can buy it through the manufacturer’s website or certified sellers in the retail network. The reason for this decision is the massive appearance of the company’s counterfeit products on the market.
Anna, Lipetsk:
“We changed the apartment, there were cockroaches left from the previous owners. Nothing works, they are exhausted. My sister advised Gett; he once helped her a lot. We started looking - it was impossible to buy, the stores said it was out of production.”

Next, you should ventilate the apartment well for at least 1.5 hours, which will allow the drug to be distributed over the entire area and the slight smell to completely disappear from the house. At the end of the procedure, the room is cleaned, but only where it is possible to touch surfaces with hands (for example, door handles). After 2 weeks, general cleaning of the apartment will be necessary, although insect corpses, of course, can be thrown away as they appear in visible places. If necessary, after 28-30 days, another treatment is done to destroy newly hatched pests (if there is a heavy population of cockroaches).
