I live in an area where cockroaches are a way of life. I put out
fresh roach traps 3 times a year. Yesterday I saw a live cockroach in
the attic, yet there is no food there. I know if you see one there are
many more which gives me the creeps. Also there are roaches on the
deck. Last week I sprayed around the foundation perimeter--mainly to
keep out spiders and ladybugs that invade every fall. I know the
sonic devices are a hoax. Can anyone tell me the best way to minimize
having cockroaches? I keep a very clean house. I have a container of
the fine boric acid (blue) powder--what's the best way to apply it?
What is the best brand of roach traps? I have no children/pets. TIA

borax, borox., boric acid. what ever it is called puff out a light dusting
of the powder under sinks and appliances and other places roaches frequent.
