I just moved into my new house we've been here for about 2 months and I've never seen a roach around the house,,,until my little sister who has her own house came over now they are in my house,,,I know there from her because she has them in her car to and they're bold to they jump on you!!! I have a fear of Spiders and Roaches but spiders I can deal with cuz you cant stop them from being in a house but roaches thats another thing,,,I saw 2 roaches in my completely clean room and I went crazy I started spraying the whole room top to bottom with roach spray but then I remembered I have a daughter and she can't have any inhalation of the spray so I need a way to get rid of them with out harming my daughter she only 16 months and I really don't want roaches crawling all over her,,,PLEASE HELP!!!

First Off Have Someone Watch The Baby For You And Get Someone To Help You At The House... Go Out And Buy Some Roach Bomb, One Or Two Cans, Shake Out And Bag Up All You And The Baby's Clothing And Get Them Outta The House, Move All Furniture From Its Place To The Middle Of The Room, Take Out The Dishes And Silverware And Leave The Cabinets And Drawers Open Just In Case They Got In There To, Read The Can To See How Long You Should Stay Outta The House And How Long It Take The Bomb To Clear, Set One Off In Each Room And Hurry To Get Out The House... Don't Be Alarmed When You Return Because There Will Be Dead Roaches Every Where They Hid In The House, I Only Had To Do This Once And Never Had Roaches Again So I Think This Should Help You..

Oh my goodness I am terrified of roaches, but anyway when i lived in apartment in the city, i am a country girl and we never saw roaches in our house, but anyway when i move to the city the apartment had roaches, after complaining to the manager, my friend told me to:Pour "baking soda" in small containers like jar lids, and place in areas where they are hidden, roaches will eat it and will die, please they can digest the baking soda. This is the cheapest way to get rid of them.
My friend was right it worked. baking powder works also.

I made the mistake of letting a friend move into my house and he brought those nasty things with him
I used combat roach gel because I can't tolerate the sprays either
it worked wonders with no smell and lots of dead bugs

boric acid really works.put it under the fridge and stove,under cabinets anywhere animals or children can't get to it.give it a month or two and you won't see any roaches.

Ive heard if you put boric acid works. You could put it behind your fridge and stove, things the baby cant get to. also i think they have some sort of bait stations. Again just dont put them anywhere the baby can reach
