For Cockroaches:
Cockroaches can be a nuisance around the house, but there are natural remedies you can use to get rid of them. Here are a couple of options you can try:
Dettol Solution:
Mixing Dettol with water and spraying it directly on cockroaches can be lethal to them due to its strong antiseptic properties. Although this method is not specifically labeled for pest control, it can still be effective.
Preparation: Mix 1 part Dettol with 3 parts water in a spray bottle.
Application: Spray directly on cockroaches or in areas where they frequently appear.
Boric Acid:
Dettol Liquid 50 ml
Another traditional approach for cockroach control is using boric acid. This powdery substance proves fatal to the roaches when they ingest it while cleaning themselves.
Preparation: Lightly dust areas of cockroach activity with boric acid powder.
For Rats:
Rats can be a problem in gardens and homes. If you are dealing with a rat infestation, these natural remedies might help:
Peppermint Oil:
Rats dislike the smell of peppermint oil. Soaking cotton balls in peppermint oil and placing them in rat-prone areas can be effective in deterring them.
