If creepy crawlies give you the shivers, cockroaches are likely at the top of your list. These resilient pests thrive in cool, damp, and dark spaces, making your home an ideal spot. Tackling a cockroach infestation in your basement or kitchen can be unsettling, but there’s a straightforward and budget-friendly solution.
Combine three tablespoons of boric acid with the yolk from one egg, creating a thick, dough-like mixture. The concoction serves as an effective roach deterrent. Shape the mixture into balls using a spoon and place them on wax or parchment paper. Let them dry for about an hour.
This DIY remedy is both practical and affordable. As the saying goes, “kill two birds with one stone,” addressing the cockroach issue while keeping it simple and cost-effective.
