  1. you step on them


  2. roach spray or bomb your house

  3. Unscented Raid or similar product.  Also, boric acid sprinkled around pipes and room edges often works as well.

  4. Combat  (in the tube). that stuff works great they eat it like food and they take it back to there nest and kills the babys too. the best stuff I have ever used and I promise you will love it.

  5. You need to identify the type roach. More than likely its either american cockroach or german roaches. American cockroaches are about one and a half inches long and dark brown. German roaches are a half an inch to one inch, light tan and has a narrow body.They are treated differently.  American roaches are easily controlled because they rub their abdomen on the ground as they run. This is called tracking. Apply any pesticide LABELED FOR COCKROACHES in cracks and crevices and around all water pipes and sources. Like fridge, dishwasher, water heater, and washer. When the roach seeks water it will (track) the pesticide and die.German roaches do not track as their abdomen sits about one quarter inch above the ground. You must directly spray them for pesticide to gain entry through spiracles in their abdomen. Its time consuming but there is no other way. Spray aerosol pesticide, like raid, into cracks. If they are in the crack they will come out. This is called flushing. Most baits have limited results inside a home for the simple reason there is generally more attractive food for them to eat in the kitchen. Have patience and be thorough. That's the key. Leave nothing unturned.
