raid kills them dead.

Answer 2

Use insect spray such as raid to kill them, then buy some redwood chips at your local garden place such as Lowes or Home Depot,

  (it comes in a plastic bag and does not cost very much) or you

could get it online at a garden site. Then take a pair of old

pantyhose and fill each leg making 'sacs' cutting and tying at

different places, then lay those sacs around the house in corners

and places. They will stay away as they do not like the smell of redwood. Good luck and hope this helps.
