You are so correct. It works like wonders.

But please, don't let it touch your hands or spray near foodstuff or kitchen utensils.
At least, next 6mths you'll be free. However, put in every crevice in the cupboards and doors. Remember to close the windows and doors, and leave the environment for like 6hrs or overnight if you spray only the kitchen.
Good luck in your quest. Pls don't leave near children. Buy the small one, use once and discard immediately. Its just #200 or so.....
Mr Man, dont misled people, Snipper cannot work for months, the maximum it will act will be like a week. Snipper (DDVP active ingredient) is not safe and has been removed from WHO approved list of public health insecticides.

The best solution is to get an Indoor Residual Spray (IRS) that is odorless and will last for 6 months without needing a respray. I spray my house only twice a year using ICON 10CS or Bistar Wp using my IRS Spray.

The Actellic 300 CS can last for one year eliminating the need for respraying within a year. It eliminates everything pest at home.

See attached link for its efficacy http://www3.syngenta.com/eame/PPM/SiteCollectionDocuments/Leaflets/Vector_control/Actellic_300CS_long_lasting_residual_insecticide_Marketing_Leaflet/Actellic_300CS_English.pdf

Do you know where I can buy Actellic 300CS locally? Thanks in anticipation.

My problem is not Just Cockroach but BAT. I need answer on how to eradicate and stop Bats from entring my roof. Considering the Celtic belief "Vampire and Bat". I mean its scary to harbour them in my roof.

I've got serious bat problem at village huz.... Its a duplux with high roofline....

Up to a thousand bats ... The smell of their poop is terrible.

The problem is... Nobody stays permanently in d huz... We only stay a few days and travel out again. Its not something one can rent out since it was built for personal use only. If I ask ppl to stay in d huz, once I travel, they start carting house furniture away. So any time I'm traveling, I lock d door and move with the key.

I called carpenters to install net ... They all ran away saying the roofline is too high for them.

I have resorted to spraying pesticides... Dimethaoate and co into the roof... The smell drives them away but after about a month, they come back.

I sprayed the roof with otapiapia kind of pesticides mixed with kerosene in April ... During the day... Dey flew out with speed... But now village neighbors are calling me dat they Have come back.

I can't block all d holes in the roof because the roofline was covered with aluminum sheets.

I'm presently thinking of knocking the net inside the roof instead of outside it... I'm skeptical about installing net outside cos high winds will definitely blow them off.

Wat do u think I should do? Permanent solution needed embarassed embarassed

I know someone started a thread on rats which i've done successfully in d past with indocid and good old hunting with sticks and PESTle. Now, i'm having an ongoing battle wit cockroaches. It doesn't matter how clean the home (since this problem has turned me to a neat freak), they still stick around, laying eggs and multiplying. I kinda prefer rats since they re easy on the eyes and big to hunt, but roaches are so damn ugly esp the big ones and can climb ur body when u're sleeping, Yuck!! Pls, anyone, HELP!

There is this powered substance they use to pour on the ground at night before bed time and you the cockroaches stagering in the morning

Alternatively kill any one you see

They have a very flat body, so they can creep in anytime, more especially if your neighbours are not after them just the way you are

Make sure you cover your dustbin so that they won't see food to eat when they come

Use green leaf it is tested and trusted, it is btw 50-100 naira works like magic. Put the powder at different conner of your house, and leave it there u will continue to see dead roaches, it effect last for up to a month, try and get original one. (You should get it with people who sell different rat poison)

Hello all! The problem of cockroaches and their damage to the environment is very popular to this day. Every day people encounter cockroaches everywhere. They are especially abundant in attics, garages, and dirty rooms. Recently I saw something very unusual and it turned out to be a flying cockroach. I wondered why do cockroaches fly ? After reading this article, I learned where they often live and so on. The way to get rid of flying cockroaches is not different from how to get rid of ordinary cockroaches. Poison of all kinds will do the job just fine.
