On Dirty Jobs on Discovery channel they did an exterminator episode and the guy called it Avermectin which I've never heard of. I wondered if he meant Ivermectin like the wormer too. You could do a search for Avermectin and see if it's two different things (his was a spray) I really don't know how you'd get them to eat it either. You could put it on something like a banana they might like but it seems like a slow way to try to get rid of them all. Sorry I can't help more Good luck

the product your thinking of is ivermectine. it is given orally to a pet and works through the blood stream to kill worms(internal parasites) and any parasite that bites your pet (fleas and mites)
i suppose it would kill roaches too but i don't know how you would get it into them
