Do you know of any other way of getting rid of these pesky cockroaches that could possible involve the use of a natural type of pesticide rather than a chemical one? I would appreciate any input. I know this probably is not one of the regular questions that you would be asked but I thought I would give it a try.
Answer:
The cockroach, as you probably know, is the oldest living thing with mobility on earth. This guy's been through the mill and won every time. He comes in more varieties than almost any other moving, living thing and is found on every continent including Antarctica (I think). I have heard of no non-chemical way to do away with him and to my good fortune, I live in a part of the world where we have but to keep food out of his way to discourage him from moving in. I appreciate that in commercial establishments (restaurants, grocery stores, etc.) this is not easy but extreme thirst won't both him so he seems to survive everything but starvation. This is another one of those things that I refer to as "some you win and others turn out like this." Sorry!
