There's nothing much you can do if it's this type of big roaches,they come from outside....

I've heard that a mixture of equal parts baking soda and sugar is deadly to them. Can't find baking soda but my brother says he used baking powder and it worked.

For now, wall geckos are decimating them, before I launch an attack on them too.

I also used Green leaf powder for a while. It's very effective.
wetin be green leaf powder?

If you buy Sniper insecticide spray,there is this gel they give you for free,it works perfectly.
joyousmother2016: 10:18am On Nov 25, 2024
*Buy sniper and pour the content into your toilet(s), then flush to kill the roaches inside the soak away.
* Green leaf (that's the name) is another alternative. You can get it from traders that sell insecticide. It comes in sachet and each cost N200.

Lol....as funny as it may sound, things stay off where they feel threatened......If only you can prove to them that you could as well have them as breakfast and dinner, trust me, they would flee.......

I trust my Asian people!!....gather those motherfuckers and fry them

First of all, buy sniper mix it with water and flush all the toilets in your house with it.

Then buy Original 'green leaf powder' and pour it in all the corners of your kitchen, under the kitchen sink etc. do this once in a week and you will see great result.

They have a source from OUTSIDE (usually a toilet).

To reduce the problem, wash all plates, seal all food and empty trash cans outside by 6pm. (that is removing their food source).
Then fumigate the kitchen.

Also close windows by 6pm.

Good day everyone

Please my kitchen is infested with cockroach on a high level. I have used insecticide to spray, it's not working. I bought otapiapia (local strong chemical) still not working.

I have wasted money to buy whatever they but no way, I'm scared because I don't want to eat cockroaches someday, they are everywhere in my kitchen, you dare not leave anything open else it's gone...


Pls if you have had this experience before, what did you do or use, I need help. They are hiding everywhere... The cupboards, cabinets, any dark area at all, and when no one is at home, they become the landlords.

Pls help
There's this powder in green sachet. You pour it on the floor where the cockroaches will eat it. It is like N250. Buy 4. Use one a week. It will clear the entire house. Also make sure there is no hole through which they get in easily.

Green leaf that's the name.

Madam if you are not too superstitious, just get a cat and the coachroaches in your house will go extinct in less than a week. Coachroaches is thier favorite snacks while rat is the main meal.

You can allow them to roam into your kitchen anytime, no problem. One good thing about cat is that they are very neat and respect themselves. They will never touch a food that isn't meant for them, even if it's uncovered.

EAT THEM
Flows001(m): 10:25am On Nov 25, 2024
Op, I had similar issue and someone recommended this Greenleaf powder to me. The powder doesn't just kill and chase them, it also kills any egg that the cockroaches have laid in any corner of the house, thereby preventing a new set of cockroaches to come up.. The powder doesn't have any foul smell, so you could sprinkle them round and still comfortably stay in the house.

Guess what? It's been 4 months since I sprinkled just a single sachet of the Greeleaf powder, and i still havent seen a single cockroach strolling in my kitchen and bathroom..

The powder is not expensive, it is 200 Naira per sachet, won't even be upto that if you're buying the pack.

Start by removing everything or anything they can eat away from their reach, they are there to eat

Pure sniper into your kitchen sink, waste chamber and , that’s where they usually reproduce, you are to break their lifecycles and then fumigate the entire place

Keep everywhere clean and stop watching rice, food elements down the drainage , pack and trash them properly

realsportclub7: 10:26am On Nov 25, 2024
The insecticide would work only if you are very neat and clean.

One grain of cooked rice might look so small to you, but to cockroaches its not.

When you don't leave food waste for them to feed on.

They'll leave.

The insecticide you bought will kill them, but new eggs will hatch, the new ones won't have the older ones to contend with for food and space which will make their survival smoother and easier.

The most stubborn cockroach specie are those very tiny ones, some of them can fly but majority of them can't. Despite that, SNIPPER kills any of them in an instant. Use snipper but carefully, I've seen a big lizard ate a cockroach that die of snipper spray died few second after the swallow.
Note: Don't buy snipper if you are feeling depressed.

You need to determine the source first. One time we had such issue in my compound was puzzled because everywhere is always neat and I've taken time to clean up everywhere and fumigate yet it persists , till I found that the source was the soakaway in the compound , the cockroahes comes out through the WC, I went bought enough insectides and flush it down through some of the toilets and that was the end.

I can attest to this.

Sniper too works well
efeteb:
Get GREENLEAF and thank me later.

A sachet is around #200, buy like 5 sachet.

Spread it in the nook and crannies of your house in the evening. Repeat it after five days. For Four times.

You'll thank God for this information. You will not see the cockroach because the dead becomes food for the living until they all die off.

It works. Try it.

Greenleaf is all you need, if you can get original from insecticide vendor or check Jumia to get it. Just buy and spray in every nook and cranny of your rooms and kitchen in the next one year you will never get to see any single one of them.

danvon(m): 10:33am On Nov 25, 2024
Take a bucket or a bowl, fill that bucket or bowl with drinks, sugary things, let the things you pour reach a certain level.

Then you rub vaseline on the openings of the bowl / bucket, let the vaseline be on the parts the juice didn't reach.

Leave it in your kitchen.

The cockroach will jump in to taste the juice but because of the vaseline and slippery bowl / bucket they will not be able to get out, they will drown in the juice.

You can filter out the cockroach and repeat, no need to dispose of the juice.

Go and look for ‘Leaf Green’ and pour it around inside your kitchen they will all die. You will see it in the supermarket. Don’t let them give you another product, make sure you get the leaf green. Is in powdering form
