Shipping
I got the roach powder 3 days after i placed the order.
I haven't seen any in 10 days.
I bought both items thursday 6/21/18 afternoon, arrived saturday morning 6/23/18 via u.
Packaging/appearance
It took 2 boxes to cover my whole place along the walls and extra in wet areas.
The first bottle came with lots of dispersed powder in the box.
Mine came sealed with no spills, both times i ordered a bottle.

Competitiveness
The price beats having a professional by hundreds of dollars no comparison.
I used this product in tandem with harris' roach gel.
