Connie Re: To get rid of roaches......

Misc.

We have a local hardware store that always has unique answers. They suggested for ants and roaches mix the following: 3 tablespoons flour, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon boric acid. Put in jar lids around where bugs are - under refrigerator, under washer, under cabinets - I even put some out on cabinet near sink. Next morning found two large water roaches belly up so guess it's working!
