How can i get rid of cockroches from my house. They always get access
to my kitchen.

Boric acid lightly dusted in areas or mixed with a small amount of
water to form a brush on solution. When wet the boric acid supposedly
has no affect, but once brushed on and allowed to dry will kill the
roaches that crawl over it. The solution will allow you to treat
vertical areas inside cabinets.

Recently I read about using "agricultural grade diatomaceous earth"
(AGDE). This is not the same as that used in swimming pools. AGDE is
not harmful to humans or animals. It is sometimes added to animal food
and has shown to reduce parasites in animals.

"Sprinkle in areas where ants and roaches are present or areas in
which they run, such as baseboards, under sinks, etc. "
