Can you get rid of roaches completely??

Question

My friend has roaches in her house BAD... if I call a pest control service out to her house, how long would it take them to get rid of them and is it successful?

Answer 1

There are baite you can buy by "BLACK FLAG", it is like jell.  you spread that around under the sink or where the place where you seen them often.  They would feed on the baite and die and other would feed onto them and the chain continue and soon no more roach!

She need to keep her house clean as well, they love eating foods leftover on the counter and such...

Answer 5

I've never used a professional pest service but I have used roach foggers and they have worked well. Make sure you buy one that has an insect growth regulators, these will not only kill the adults but keep the eggs from hatching. Also make sure to clean the home thoroughly, especially the kitchen. The lower the food supply the fewer the roaches. If your Friend is  in an apartment it could be the roaches are coming from a neighbors unclean apartment. If that is the case call the landlord.

Answer 6

Boric acid powder or gel.

Answer 7

I don't know, but since they're the only things that will survive a nuclear attack, I really doubt that there's a way for them to gone completely.
