Getting Rid of Coakroaches;
Most homes have cockroaches in different quantities and sizes.
If you want to eliminate them, don't waste your money on the expensive insecticides.
Prepare this:
1. 50g Boric acid (main ingredient),
2. 100g wheat flour,
3. 1pc fresh garlic onion,
4. 1pc red onion,
5. Sugar.
6. Warm water
- Slice the onions into tiny bits,
- mix.
- roll into small balls
- stick them in areas where roaches love to hide and feed,
Boric Acid works by interfering with the roach's digestive system.
The powder will cling to the outside of the roach, helping to kill other roaches when the affected roach returns home. Insects coming into contact with the boric acid will die within 72 hours.
If you see more roaches immediately after laying the bait, dont worry, it means it's working!
That's because they're trying to escape the chemicals killing them.
Is boric acid toxic humans?
Boric acid exhibits low acute toxicity in laboratory animals when eaten, although human poisoning incidents suggest that it may be moderately toxic when consumed in large quantities by people. Boric acid is of low acute toxicity to mammals. *g
1. For those asking where to buy boric acid, check from supermarkets, pharmacies or shops that sell chemicals.,
2. About toxicity, check preceding tweet.
