The majority of people prefer not to find insects in their homes because they cause a lot of phobias or carry unwanted germs that enter the surfaces, making your family sick. Namely, cockroaches because they spend a lot of their time in the waste and in the vicinity of garbage bins, carrying many germs. Meanwhile, many people are allergic to their saliva, lost skin and excrement, falling sick without knowing how.
Below is a cost-effective way to get rid of it, according to experts.
Effective against ants and cockroaches
Boric acid is a good natural way to spray or trap. The cockroaches walk in the dust, collect particles and end up ingestling them. As with the diatom earth, “a slight sprinkling” is sufficient. However, most bottles and boxes of boric acid have free-flow lids, so Dr. Chad Gore, an entomologist and technical director at Terminix, suggests opening them halfway to make sure you don’t accidentally pass overboard. Boric acid has also been shown to be effective against ants when used correctly. If you find that boric acid is not working the first time, there is a homemade recipe that you can follow and that has been shown to be effective in treating houses against cockroaches.
