Free-lance cockroach genocide.

[shilala]

I have a rental house that is chuckabluck loaded with cockroaches. I believe they are imported North Caroline cockroaches that came in on the last scumbag's stuff, if that matters. 😉
The house was left devastatingly filthy and cockroach infested. We had to have the douche removed by the Sheriff.
It's sit a couple months now because I haven't had time to remodel it.
I scrubbed carpets, did some major cleaning, set out cockroach goo, and they seem to be snickering at it.
When I stopped by a couple days ago to do some work, there were somewhere on the order of 10,000 dead little cockroaches in the toilet.
I fvckin near barfed.
Can I take care of this on my own or do I need a professional? The house is unoccupied so I can do any sort of nasty manuever short of arson.

Cliff Notes...
1.) Major cockroach infestation at rental property.
2.) Need them dead. All of them.
3.) ???
4.) Profit!

Seek out a professional w/ a money-back guarantee IMO 🙂

when my friend wanted to get the roaches out of our apt, we left the lights on day in and day out, removed all food from the damn apt, and put roach hotels/goo/those plastic roach thingies all over the place, one month later, no more roaches...

Do those things work on cockroaches? I could lay out about 20 of them and warn the neighbors not to get downwind.

A simple mixture of... (we call`em Roach cookies... 😀 ) DOH...!

2-cups flour
1-cup powdered sugar
1-cup cooking oil (or bacon grease)
1-half cup chopped onions (if you have pets in the house this is optional)
1-8oz. bottle of powdered boric acid (any Pharmacy should have this)


combine all in an old butter container and add more or less oil or flour to make a cookie dough consistancy and place a spoon full in each corner of every room and even in the garage or any out buildings... In 1-2 weeks the problem will be no more...


BTW the excess can be kept in the fridge till needed elsewere... And for god`s sake dont let anyone eat it... 😛

How much do those guys cost? I've never called a bug killer guy, so I don't know how much/how effective they are.
A money-back thing is irrelevant because I don't live there and I'm going to sell the house once I finish remodeling.
I just can't have them near me when I'm in there working.
They absolutely freak me out.

Also good for the neighborhood kids too! 🙂

My boots pop off. My feet are black. The toes crumble off with the slightest touch. The dead black tissue that was once my skin chips off in large crispy flakes. A smell of death pervades the room. Gangrenous pus drips from the ends of the stumps where my toes were. I look deep in your eyes, and shove my tongue down your throat.

Nice. Big time nice.
I printed the recipe and I'll be gathering up some boric acid. I'm going to bomb the little bastards, too. This will be a beautiful, beautiful thing.
Thanks Bartman39, you're a lifesaver.
