If you want to know how to get rid of cockroaches without expensive and nasty chemicals, you’ve come to the right place! The technique below is cheap, chemical/fume-free and natural…
What You Need:
- Borax
- Sugar
What you do:
- Mix the borax and sugar in equal quantities. The amount you make will be dependent on how large the area is you want to treat. You can experiment with grinding the mixture into a finer powder. Find what works best.
- Apply the mixture to where cockroaches are found – behind cupboards, cookers, refrigerators and sinks etc; anywhere you have seen cockroaches. Be careful not to put it anywhere children or pets may come into contact with it.
- Reapply the mixture until the cockroaches are all gone.
- Job is done!
IMPORTANT – keep this mixture dry; borax loses its effectiveness when it gets wet.
This technique works because the roaches are attracted to the sugar, and when the consuming it they also consume the borax. Simply put – borax kills them when they eat it!
This mixture is effective, and can also be used in the home to kill ants.
Keep borax and this mixture away from children and pets.
