Re: Re: FDA report on Roach Prufe

Considering the FDA's very public problems, something from them still won't make me go right out and purchase it, much less deem it safe to put on ones body. Of which I have seen no recommendations in its use for that purpose. Because it is harmless in the environment does not necessarily mean it is harmless on your body and in your scalp.

Re: Generic Boric Acid vs Roach Prufe

I've put 20 mule team Borax (boric acid)in my carpet to stop the critters and it worked. Then I pulled out my carpet and installed Pergo (laminated flooring)and the critters were back from the floor. They weren't as bad as when I had carpet but still there. When I put borax on the Pergo it didn't help at all. I concluded that it must be the grandular shape from the borax particles getting into the moving parts of the critters that stopped them. The acid of borax is mild and may have nothing to do with stopping the critters. I was also wondering if the blue color of Roach Profe is a metal that causes the electrical charge.
