What You’ll Need:
Baking soda
Sugar
Water
Small dish
Instructions:
Prepare the Bait:
Mix equal parts baking soda and sugar in a small dish. The sugar will attract the roaches, while the baking soda will do the killing.
Set the Bait:
Place the dish in areas where you’ve seen roaches, such as under sinks, behind appliances, or in dark corners.
Wait and Reapply:
Roaches will consume the mixture, and within a few days, you should notice a decrease in their population. Reapply the bait every few days until the infestation is gone.
Why It Works: The sugar attracts the roaches, and the baking soda reacts with their digestive acids, creating a lethal buildup of gas.
