Answer 1

In the states you can buy this stuff.

Put it anywhere a roach may hide...behind the fridge/oven/cabinets.  Inside floorboards, under carpets.  They eat this stuff and die.

I moved into a place that had a HORRIBLE infestation.  The pest man used gel stuff and they died very quickly.  I asked what it was he used and told me to try this stuff.  After about 2 months there were no roaches anywhere.  It was great.

I highly recommend buying it and using it even if you do not see them.  More or less a safeguard just incase.

Good luck with your move!

Keep it absolutely clean - if there is no food for them they won't stick around but that means you have to be fastidious.  Always clean up surfaces asap, don't let crumbs drop behind kitchen units or between them, don't leave food particles on the floor.

Answer 16

Simple and safe solution.........

Mix baking soda and powdered sugar 50/50 and place in areas where they might hide out. They clean themselves to remove the sweet sugar and at the same time ingest the baking soda that their body cannot process. They internally explode from gas buildup caused by the baking soda.

Works very well and is very safe.

Roaches need a water source. Make sure to fix all leaks.
