Answer #1

a woman claimed they was in some clothes and she stuck them in a tumble dryer on full heat for a long time and that killed them, but they came back :o

impossible to kill?

borax is said to be pretty good but again people are saying they come back…

‘Diatomaceous Earth’ seems to be the only home remedy thats certified after a few months..

To insects Diatomaceous Earth is a lethal dust with microscopic razor sharp edges. These sharp edges cut through the insect’s protective covering drying it out and killing them when they are either dusted with Diatomaceous Earth or if it applied as a wettable powder spray. If they ingest the Diatomaceous Earth it will shred their insides.

not very nice I know but this does seem to work from what I’ve read :)

Answer #2

Oh okay thanks, Well the pest guy also told me Raid max does it too, so I am going to go to the store and buy that and a lot of bleach first lol

Answer #3

you must wear a dust mask when appling it, thats it…

once its settled its 100% safe to us.

you wont be spraying it into the air… youll just be spreading it out on the kitchen floor and will settle in seconds :)

Answer #4

tHANKS BUT WOULDNT THAT HURT HUMANS ALSO LOL
