Being a landlord we constantly battle roaches. We have tried everything known and this seems to work the best. Two more little tidbits about roaches, you only need one to have a million, they do not need a mate to breed if you know what i mean. And the avg life cycle of a roach is 16 days. If you can kill the living ones you can stop the infestation. We mix 2/3 part boric acid to 1/3 pure white sugar. Put this stuff everywhere. Under cabinets and inside cabinets, under the fridge, stove, around water lines coming into the home. At night pour a teaspoon down all drains and let sit, if possible dust down the whole sink itself and rinse out in the morning. Spray it into outlets. Dust it anywhere you can that it will be able to sit for extended period of times. Most importantly---Make sure pets and children DO NOT have access to this stuff! It is highly toxic.
