In some reviews, the composition of the drug against bedbugs and other insects is criticized for being severely toxic. But the use of a product of this category simply cannot be completely safe.

Accidental ingestion of the drug into the stomach or respiratory tract will not cause death, but you still need to be careful when using the drug.
If you follow the instructions for use, the product will not cause harm. If, however, a person neglects the safety rules and inhales the drug, then signs of poisoning may appear: nausea, dizziness, headache, weakness, loss of concentration. At the first symptoms, you need to leave the room, change clothes, drink 5 tablets of activated carbon and several glasses of clean water. The room must be ventilated for several hours and then rinsed again.

Principle of action on pests
The drug acts on pests according to the following principle:
- When sprayed, “Tsifoks” gets on the outer surface of walls, floors, furniture and other objects, as well as on trees or foliage if land was sprayed.
- After this, a chemical substance enters the body of ticks and other parasites, upon contact with treated objects, which instantly causes paralysis in the parasites.
- Ticks and other insects die, and in addition, the treated areas remain protected from pest attacks for a long time.
An important point: you should know that this product can kill not only the most dangerous ticks, but also bees, so spraying this product near the hive is unacceptable.
Fighting cockroaches
It is recommended to pay attention to the main points of combating mustachioed pests:
- If the insects have appeared recently, you can first treat only the places where they accumulate.
- In the fight against cockroaches, the frames of sofas and beds, the joints of baseboards with wallpaper, carpets and furniture walls must be thoroughly treated.
- In case of severe infestation, treat everything where cockroaches can live: the bottom of window sills, chairs, electrical appliances, painting surfaces.

User reviews
Last time, the red ants disappeared for two years... On our advice, our friends who suffered from an unpleasant neighborhood treated their apartments with Tsifoks, and everyone is very happy! Respect to the manufacturer! This is a real salvation from annoying insects.

I was advised to use a professional remedy for bedbugs, Tsifox... If you have bedbugs or suspect their presence, then do not waste time and start treatment. I definitely recommend using Tsifox, because I used it to treat 2 apartments and (ugh, ugh, ugh) the arthropods were gone... A little more than a year after the treatment, the bugs have not returned

On advice from the Internet, I bought Tsifoks... They hounded me, all in vain. The drug is effective only when applied directly to the insect, but you still need to get to it, and this is difficult... it turns out that if an individual survives the baiting, then its offspring are no longer susceptible to cypermethrin.

...asked that friend for the name. It turned out to be “CIFOX”. After the harassment, they left the windows open (it is very smelly, work ONLY with masks!). And they didn’t return home for a day. The next day the entire kitchen was washed. The entire floor was littered with cockroach corpses.

Tsifoks helps fight them. We use it to cultivate the plot, sheds and household items. It really is getting smaller. In enclosed spaces (garage, barn) after treatment you can forget about mosquitoes. They won’t even visit the open veranda.
