Those critters will take a bath in the bleach, laugh and have babies.
Here's what does work pretty well.
Keep all food- all of it, in air tight containers- if they have nothing to eat, they don't come around as much.
Apply diatomaceous earth powder (pool companys stock it) under rugs, and inside cabinets- along the edges- under the 'fridge- this stuff is irritating for people and pets to breath, so make sure it's in a location that pets & people won't get to easily.
What this diatomaceous earth does it scratch the waxy coat on bugs- and if that waxy bug coat is distrurbed, they loose their bodies mositure and die- works great- I lived in a roach fest place years ago, and we won the roach war with it.

Wow lots happening, which will be stressful, so as that you'll answer a number of those for you, a million. Your cat gained't bypass after some thing if it might harm him, so i'm sensible that he will be fantastic. :) 2. Paper towel to %. them up once you squish them....or a dirt pan and broom to %. them up. 3. For those little cockroaches Electrify them! properly, no longer extremely. yet digital emitters were shown to prevail at laying aside a extreme frequency noise that deters cockroaches. follow a cockroach-particular pesticide. Make handmade roach traps, which contain deep jars or boxes with an inch of water. The roaches are likely to fall into the seize and drown. follow boric acid powder to potential get admission to elements which contain around the starting place of your position, basement living house windows or basement drains. The powder will adhere to the roach and ultimately be ingested, finally killing it. The powder can be delivered again to the cockroach nest and help to exterminate different roaches. i wish this helps, praying each little thing is going properly.

cockroaches do not like a clean house but once in you need to clean the entire building one apartment will infect the rest.

Use poison baits, boric acid and insect traps. To kill cockroaches, ants, and termites, sprinkle borax in suspect areas

i've never tried it, but those roach sprays work great. we had a roach behind the stove and sprayed around the lineoleum. he instantly went belly up. you have to lay down some traps as well. if that doesn't work, call a professional. if your connected to other apartments, everyone has to spray, otherwise they move to safer ground.

no, but there are sprays and pastes you can put down, and tell your landlord to fumigate!
