Bugses

the last months we have been plagued by a serious german cockrachinfestation . Bugsprays over the counter at various commercial places did not work or just killed the ones that where visible allowing the remaining population to build up an immunity and come back two weeks later in force ! Man do these critters leave behind a smell!!
Recently I have adopted Boric Acid as nmy ally against these little critters and have from day one to another seen a great many belly up ( mostly adults). Boric acid clings to their little wriggly paws and antennae and while grooming they ingest the stuff allowing their gut to distend and not allow them to feed on any more food ( YESSSSS) In addition to that I have become quite ANAL in my cleaning methods and have limited wateraccess in my house and caulked every crack and crevice and keep my garbagecan cleaner than my sink.
From many sources i hear that it takes about two weeks to kill pretty much all of them but the boric acid when kept dry is effective many months after that ( some say six months , yeey!)
I wonder if when I vacuum I should use it in a roomdeodorizingpowder and not only get my house dustfree but also provide the necessary bugcontrol at the same time (...)talk about cheap and friendly pestcontrol...
as far as toxicity it is about as toxic as tablesalt so I do not have to worry about hurting myself or my family . Application of it of course is done late at night when the house is undisturbed ( puffs of powder need to completely settle down !!)
I'll keep you informed about getting this under control, sofar ,three days in they're still dying in the hundreds around the house, he he . The airquality shows improvement allready and surfaces now stay clean !
Springcleaning in about two weeks should get rid of most of the smell , i am still working on a way to eliminate bacterial odor from their droppings.
Send me something to ignostu@gmail.com with any bright and cheap ideas for a surefire antibacterial solution .
After all is said and done i want to purchase neemoil to treat the house w as deterrent to bugs .( supposedly good for many purposes, research it!!)
