anybody else have a cockroach problem?

Back to the cockroach question: Get the 12 month COMBAT, but change them every three months. An exterminator told us this several years ago, and it works.

I've decided to give up on the poisons for cockroaches....I'm gonna make a game out of stepping on them!!!! "POP"

move to washington state, cockroaches can't live up there, too cold... my grandma lived up there when she was young, she had never seen a roach in her life until she came to texas....

either way, wait it out... they only have a few months right before summer where they literally all come out of the woodwork... if you live in an apartment/dorm you might as well give up right now, becuase even if you clean everything, to make it make a hosptial look disgusting, you are still subject to everyone else's dirty habbits...

Roaches can be easily poisoned with boric acid. Folks used to mix it with a little corn meal and put it in their cupboards. Sometimes they would just scatter it around. Roaches are amazing creatures. They are immune to radiation that will kill almost anything and have been here since before the dinosaurs. Boric acid is much safer than standard bug poisons. In fact, boric acid is sometimes used as an eye wash (very dilute, of course).

Take everything out and clean the shit out of it. Get some bug bombs and let them rip one day. Come back, clean everything again (especially the dishes and stuff) and then lay traps and get some of that gel stuff. Keep the traps fresh as well as the gel and you're be fine as long as you don't keep uncovered food around. Make sure you wash your dishes when your done.

Yeah i've haerd good things about bug bonbs, if not call Terminix.
