yeah, that's what we've been using, but i still find them. it's so disgusting...we have family visiting from out of town and since they are non-city people, they will be shocked if and when they see them. ugh... [ Reply | More ]

Borax is the only thing that is 100% effective. It takes a few weeks, but it works. Use one of those pastry guns to gently blow a fine layer of the stuff into all crevices and along all baseboards. And it's kid and pet friendly (as long as your kids and pets aren't in the habit of licking every square inch of baseboard). [ Reply | More ]

No. I have cats, and while they DO eat the roaches, they do nothing to curb the population. You need to kill them at the source. [ Reply | More ]

Combat, not the quick killing ones, the source kill. Sometimes it makes it worse for the first week but then it works. Put them everywhere you can out of reach of kids/pets but if you have neighbors doing a renovation you can't get rid of them until that stops. [ Reply | More ]
