Hi Shane, If you have no other pets, try boric acid. You can sprinkle it around under sinks, wherever you think the things might be getting in, and they track through it and it kills them. A friend of mine had a problem in Manhattan with them, so he tapped some holes into the walls in the bathroom and kitchen, funneled some boric acid in, spackled the holes and he never saw the things again. Good luck.

Got a problem and want to know the best way to deal with it. I caught 3 last night, 2 within a 10 minute period. Two of them were in the kitchen, one in the sink, one on the floor. The third was in the computer room. Caught him on the run. The first one didn't have a protective covering on the back, not sure about the second, but the third one did have it. I have a particularly nasty fate for them. The garbage disposal loves them. Yumm, a quick snack. Someone has already been over to spray and they say it has to be done twice before it is effective. In the meantime, I'd like to cut into their party. The house is clean and no food scraps are laying around to my knowledge. I thought about getting those motels and scattering them throughout the place. I also thought about making a home-made roach killer from Borax and powdered sugar. Any suggestions pro or con is appreciated, along with any other suggestions you may have. I own the house. Shane [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
