How to Destroy Reaches.

To get rid of reaches. one may resort
to starvation (depriving them of their
food supply, poisoning. trapping and fu-
migation. Scrupulous cleanliness will do
as much as anything else to rid house
of this pest. A drop of preserves. jam.
strip or molasses left on the kitchen
table or i'm the pantry, bread crumbs on
the floor, or saucers with milk or other
food for household pets on the floor
serve as magnets for reaches and al
ford them the requisite pabulum. What
nature faker has not observed a cock
roach scurrying across the kitchen moor
carrying large bread crumb? Reaches
breed in greatest numbers in flour mills.
Their only useful purpose is to serve as
fishing bait for the small boy.
Flower Of sulphur busted along the
baseboards will repel then,. and phos-
phorus paste forms an excellent poison.
Another method of poisoning is to mix
one part of plaster of paris with three
or four parts of flower. place in a saucer
and connect by means of a bridge with
a second saucer containing water The
reaches partake of the contents of both
saucers. with resulting formation of
plaster casts of their internal anatOmies.
A simple and old-fashioned homemade
trap consists of any cylindrical receptacle
with vertical sides. baited in the bottom
with molasses, siruD or stale beer,
having the top connected with the floor
by stick of wood. the reaches ascend
on the stick and fall to the bottom of
the vessel when they smell the bait.
