Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 i've never had to deal with the huge ones you are talking about, but diatomaceous earth and these non-toxic traps--http://www.seabrightlabs.com/roach.htm--worked really well for me and i live in an apartment complex that has been very susceptible to infestation. honestly the diatomaceous earth has been a godsend. i had to deal with a large bed bug infestation (very disgusting i may add) in a neighbor's apartment that was creeping into my own and i have to say, it virtually cured it where the exterminator treatments couldn't. i even think that if i had done just that in the beginning and nothing else, i could have probably avoided having to do all the other suggested tricks and endless laundry. the only thing to be careful of is to apply it in a way that doesn't disperse it into the air because it is not good to breathe. it lasts forever as long as it stays dry. it is also safe to put in electrical outlets light switches. good luck! sabine.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 We used DE with the fire ants we had coming in the house. Took a couple of weeks but they must have packed up and left our area or it killed the hive because they left! =) They were coming in the bathroom and kitchen for water as we had a drought this summer.
