The Baking Soda & Sugar Trick
Cockroaches are attracted to sugar, but baking soda is lethal to them. Here’s how to use this method:
Mix equal parts of baking soda and sugar. The sugar lures the roaches, and the baking soda reacts with their digestive system, killing them.
Place small amounts of the mixture in shallow dishes or bottle caps and distribute them in roach-prone areas (kitchen, under sinks, near trash cans, and dark corners).
Leave bowls of water nearby. When the cockroaches drink water after consuming the baking soda, the reaction in their stomachs will kill them.
