Any suggestions on how to get rid of cockroaches?

Question

I just moved into an apartment and I discovered cockroaches. German cockroaches to be exact. I don't think I have that many. I mean, I've only seen a few in the one month that I've been here. Still, I find it just disgusting. Any tips on how to get rid of them naturally? I prefer natural methods. I'm not too keen on using poisons.

Answer 1

I used you to have them until I bought bug traps

*They work like mouse traps but they are closed so there won't be any accidents.

Answer 2

You should let your landlord know this and ask if he wants to have the apartment sprayed. Usually, if you see roaches out and about, there are more behind the walls. Put out some roach motels (under the sinks, behind the frig, etc.). Good luck.

Answer 3

"Roach Pruf" powder .

follow the directions, don't apply too heavy, or they'll avoid it.

works like magic.

I have used it everytime I have moved into some where,  and have never had a problem, nor have I ever seen a live roach in my house.

We floridians swear by it.

and not to freak you out or anything, but german roaches are the wors.

for every one you have seen, there are 10.000 more.
