cockroaches

Buy Oro from supermarkets. It’s a big spray can. Spray it around doors & windows & anywhere else they can get in. It lasts for ages as long as you don’t mop. Keep plugs in sinks & baths & spray into drains & overflows.

Thanks so much!

You’re welcome 😊

Mercadona sell traps with a poison that also attracts the critters. You just tuck them in a dark corner, discrete and also where they like to hide. Last 3 months.

Yes not very nice and you will get them in the house,we are in Sucina in a property about 10 years old and we get one or two every day one thing donot put your foot on one as if it is a female and as eggs 6 of them comes times (6) = 36 oh yes so spray to kill. A little story we had a rental in Benijofar and it had a tile ceiling with lights in as well and in one summer of 6 weeks we had 120 plus hand on heart 120 plus in 6 weeks so we moved out ASAP and moved to Sucina.

IF you have none you are very very lucky.

120?????? I think that would have me on the next easyJet flight out of here!!!!

Thanks for the tip about not stepping on them.  Would never have thought of that.....not that I could bring myself to put my foot on one (even with hob nailed boots on) but I may have considered giving it a severe wack with something from a distance 

I have sprayed everywhere with Oro, so fingers crossed. Had one in the pool today but that was easily despatched as it was no longer moving.

I have found approx 10 since I came back 6 days ago. I'm decorating and moving furniture around. Luckily they were all downstairs. Probably won't sleep if I find any upstairs. Neighbours said to keep plugs in all the time. I never thought of doing this. I really hate cockcroches more than any other insects. The ones here are massive too. I have a spray but I've battered a few with a broom!

I wonder if Noah purposely put cockroaches on board or if they were stowaways? If he did I would like a word with him!!!!!!

I have to own up to putting down the bait traps and haven't seen any for a week or so. Also a neighbour told me to mop regularly with an ammonia detergent. I think that's helped too. But by far my favourite trick is to use the small vacuum cleaner with long tube attachment and chase them across the room. 100% success rate and very satisfying! Well they do like to live in dark places?
