I've heard that a mixture of equal parts baking soda and sugar is deadly to them. Can't find baking soda but my brother says he used baking powder and it worked.

For now, wall geckos are decimating them, before I launch an attack on them too.

I also used Green leaf powder for a while. It's very effective.

I no get u completely...do you mean that this combo works effectively against wall gecko too or just cockroaches?

Good day everyone

Please my kitchen is infested with cockroach on a high level. I have used insecticide to spray, it's not working. I bought otapiapia (local strong chemical) still not working.

I have wasted money to buy whatever they advertise but no way, I'm scared because I don't want to eat cockroaches someday, they are everywhere in my kitchen, you dare not leave anything open else it's gone...


Pls if you have had this experience before, what did you do or use, I need help. They are hiding everywhere... The cupboards, cabinets, any dark area at all, and when no one is at home, they become the landlords.


Pls help
Buy that green leaf powder they will disappear

Get GREENLEAF and thank me later.

A sachet is around #200, buy like 5 sachet.

Spread it in the nook and crannies of your house in the evening. Repeat it after five days. For Four times.

You'll thank God for this information. You will not see the cockroach because the dead becomes food for the living until they all die off.

It works. Try it.
This is the best so far

Snipper did it for me but you have to buy it from Shoprite as there are fakes everywhere from chemist shops to these local wares. There was a time when I travelled for the weekend and sprayed the whole house. I counted up to 16 dead cockroaches on my return. Good luck

Just cockroaches.

If you have wall geckos in your house (highly discouraged), they also reduce cockroach population by feasting on them. I actually thought I was completely rid of roaches, not knowing it was geckos keeping them low.

Cockroaches eat onion, if you can re/move it to a safe container, it might help to reduce cockroach

This is the first time am hearing this. I have never seen cockroach around onion before.

The cat will live with you in your bedroom and parlour?

Lol, yes cats are very safe and clean pets. They don't even need expensive care, just feed them and pet them let it roam freely. You will say goodbye to cockroaches, rats, lizards and even reptiles like snakes won't dare enter your house.. cats are friendly companions too

Re: How Did You Deal With Cockroach by Love800(m): 7:05am On Nov 27, 2024
Okay.
But where do they actually stay in the home?

Will you construct something like a little home(cage) for dem?

But keeping onion inside a container will make it rotten fast na!
And i dont think only the onion issue will evict cockroaches out of the home. There are other things to do also.

You're right. They eat insignificant portion of it and note it is the already open and cut onion i saw them feasted on. I have not seen them feast on a whole onion.
Re: How Did You Deal With Cockroach by Love800(m): 10:13am On Nov 27, 2024
I appreciate.
Thanks so much.

Nope.. cat's don't need all of that, they randomly lie down anywhere they deem comfortable and neat within the house..
But when you first get a kitten tie it in the compound and feed and pet it well for few days after which you lose it and it will always consider it a home.
You might construct a house for the cat, he may end up using top of your wardrobe or squeeze himself between cushion chair's, and never even use the cat house ;Dvery unpredictable creatures

Okay. Hope the cat wont inflict injuries on you while you are sleeping in the night!

How do you handle the poo? So the cat will be pooing in your bedrooms, parlour, kitchen!

And what will the cat eat. How will you feed it?

As I said cats are very neat, they only poo. far away on the sand and bury it.. just expose them to that training as a kitten by keeping it around a sand area for few days..
Again I said cats are safe, they only cuddle but never inflict injuries in someone. About feeding, just give them any food on a plate. Sometimes give them meat too.
Re: How Did You Deal With Cockroach by sultaan(m): 5:18pm On Nov 28, 2024
Look for boric acid.

It is a white powder you add to food like small cooked fish no bigger than a thumb nail.

Put a couple of the mixture in corners of your kitchen and clean up every single scrap of food in the kitchen so roaches have no other choice of food.

They will die in their nest and their babies will eat dead parents and die too and the cycle will continue
Re: How Did You Deal With Cockroach by Love800(m): 7:08pm On Nov 28, 2024
Thanks so much.

This will be my last question. Where can i purchase it. In the market? How much for it?

Finally will i name it? Should i give the cat a name?
