Where do you place cockroach baits?

Question: I have roaches and I was wondering about the bait you use. Where does it have to go? We just remodeled and don't want the bait in our new cabinets. Could they put the bait on a paper towel or something?

Answer: Only small amounts of bait are used and it is usually placed in cracks and crevices where the cockroaches are already hiding; it will not damage the new cabinets.
