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

Misc.

I've also heard that putting a bay leaf on your cabinet shelves will also repel unwanted kitchen critters. Let's see.... that came out in the newspaper back in the 70's, I think. In a Heloise column, maybe.

Anyway, I did this. Then my daughter cleaned out the cupboards when I wasn't there one day. Told me one of my spices had "spilled all over the shelves" and threw the leaves away.

Give your kids the 10 Commandments, and they give you Murphy's Law. Oh well.
