A Simple and Cheap Way to Get Rid of Cockroaches From Your Home 🪳🚫
Cockroaches are one of the most unwelcome guests in any household. Not only are they creepy to see scurrying across your floors, but they can also carry bacteria and allergens that affect your health. If you’re tired of using expensive chemicals or sprays that smell awful and aren’t always effective, here’s a simple, cheap, and natural method to get rid of cockroaches—and keep them away!
Why Choose a Natural Cockroach Remedy?
- Cost-effective — uses everyday household items
- Safe for kids and pets — no harsh chemicals
- Eco-friendly — avoids harmful toxins
- Easy to make and apply — no complicated steps
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
- Sugar or powdered sugar
- Optional: boric acid powder (for enhanced effectiveness, but keep out of reach of pets and children)
How It Works
Cockroaches are attracted to the sugar’s sweetness. When they eat the mixture of sugar and baking soda, the baking soda reacts with their digestive system, causing them to die naturally. This method is a slow but effective way to reduce the cockroach population in your home without the dangers of chemical pesticides.
How to Make and Use the Cockroach Trap
- Mix equal parts baking soda and sugar in a small bowl.
- Sprinkle the mixture in areas where cockroaches are commonly seen—such as under sinks, along baseboards, near trash bins, and behind appliances.
- Leave the mixture out overnight to attract cockroaches.
