Re: Help!! Roaches have taken over my kitchen!


I should have clarified conniecat........if you live in a mobile home in the south, roaches are a big problem.  The hot, humid weather here is a breeding ground for roaches and they thrive on it.........unfortunately!


GloBug....that story is just too funny!


Nieciez.........I plan on doing almost everything you suggested.........except....the dog food thing.  I just can't do that to my furbaby. He's living on borrowed time as it is (he's 15.....will be 16 in November) and as I've mentioned before, he's blind and deaf.  He eats a little bit a few times a day and I will not deprive him of that for the time he's left on this earth with me.  I just can't do that to him.


Last night, I went to Kroger and got me a package of the roach bait thingies (there are 12 in a package).  I cleaned the cabinet above my refrigerator (I won't even gross you out with what I found up there), the cabinet above my stove (again I won't gross you out), and under the sink.  I used all 12 bait things in those three areas.  I've never kept anything above the fridge or the stove (too high for me to reach and cabinets too small to fit hardly anything), so at least there were no dishes or anything like that up there.  I looked for Boric Acid but couldn't find any.  Where would one find this stuff.......in what isle in the store?


I'm determined to get this problem under control!  I'm taking off work this Friday and the Tuesday after Labor Day.  So I will have 5 days to rage war against these things!
