Nobody likes cockroaches, but cockroaches are a common problem.
This brochure contains information on these and other questions on how to prevent and control cockroaches more safely. The fewer places cockroaches can hide, the better. Caulk, weather-strip, and repair holes around water pipes, baseboards, doors and windows. Put screens over windows, vents, floor drains, and ducts-they can be cockroach highways and hideaways. Get rid of old newspapers, paper bags, etc.
