I don't know about in the house, but roaches outside are still hanging out where I placed it.

We have only used it successfully for rodents. Insects... like cockroaches.... don't seem to be effected.

It is known for repelling Moth and Bed Bugs....any bugs that are cave dewellers, dark places. and like moisture like moths and bed bugs it does well with...so insects like mosquitos it will not do well....Cockroach I do not know...I assume it will but can't find any data on it.

I use it I with other ingredients to make a liquid mixture to get rid of ticks and chiggers that attach to skin but do not know if it would affect cockroaches. Maybe the smell would drive them away but do not know.

I crush it and put in a spray bottle with the spearmint scented alcohol, and I spray it on the roaches when I see them. It kills them instantly. If I feel i'm getting too many, I spray some around the apartment and it keeps them away for a while.

Yes you can. I crush the camphor and mix it in a spray bottle with spearmint scented alcohol and shake it up. If I see them I spray it on them and they die instantly. If you have more roaches than you like, spray it around, the apartment is going to smell minty, and you will see less and less. Just remember roaches have a way of becoming immune to thins so, make sure to only use it when you need it. Family has been using this method for years.

I d/n know if camphor gets rid of cockroaches because I d/n have any past experience of them in the house. However, check Amazon for powdered Boric acid if they d/n have any go to your grocery store and get it there. Just as sure as roaches crawl when they step into powdered Boric Acid within seconds they are dead. If they crawl away and take it back to the nest it is OVER! I USE Powdered Boric Acid outside my back door shaken on to a dry towel. Of, course it is odorless. Stay Blessed.

I use it for stink bugs and they're too dumb to fly away which is good because you do have to get really close to suck it up. I love the bug zooka tho!

Cockroaches are hard to kill. They hide in walls or the inner workings of old appliances. They eat anything (including each other). If you have an active infestation, it will take time to clear them out. To get rid of the bugs, you need to apply the powder (a light dusting is good) to areas the bugs are likely to cross over. The kitchen is likely to be a hot spot because they tend to nest in areas where they have found food in the past. Don't breath the dust when you apply it, but don't worry about putting it around food prep areas. It is safe to eat. If you dust your floors, leave it on the floor for at least a few hours. If you vacuum it up, reapply it in about a week. The dust won't harm the eggs. They can hatch a new generation later, which is why it is important to reapply. When you find a dead bug, flush it down the toilet. If it is carrying fertile eggs, they can still hatch after the adult dies. When you go a couple of weeks without seeing the little buggers, you can dust around the perimeter of the floors and counters from time to time. That should discourage them from moving back in. Persistence is the key here. Good luck! Hope to hear that this works for you. One side note. If you are going to vacuum this up after applying it to your floor, try to dust lightly. A little goes a long way and I have heard from others that too much in an area is not good for your vacuum.

This is the most effective product I have ever used. I`m not sure of the physiology of the various species of roaches, 'cause they're all nasty to me, but after using the product in Florida for the giant super roaches we have down here, it was great. I have no roaches in my house or garage even during the past rainy season when they seem to be at their most active. I would simply use the product or if you think it makes a difference, contact the manufacturer directly.

I don't know if it would work on that or not. Plain bleach or ammonia usually keeps those types of insects away

YES! We spray every three months and it keeps mosquitos, ants, spiders and roaches away. It say it kills everything but these are our problem pests. It's also safe for our dogs.

This product works great on cockroaches. I spray around the edge of my entire backyard and the next day I go out and find cockroaches turned over either dead or kicking. It works great on ants too. It usually last about 3 months till you spray again.

I'm not sure since we don't have roaches. I would try it. I put some on my cats as a flea powder. It killed the adult fleas on them.

I bought this to kill bed bugs and cockroaches as an alternative to chemicals sprayed throughout my house. I don't know about outside use.

It does kill roaches. Spread it where roaches run, behind cabinets, etc. I use a plastic bottle with small holes in it to sprinkle behind furniture, in cracks and crevices and wherever bugs may be. Works great for fleas and all types of crawling bugs.

Yes it will work perfectly to kill all the ants, roaches, etc. Indeed it kills all insects. This is a very powerful product. Since I introduced it in my home, no more roaches nor insects. Sprinkle around corners and little holes in your house especially in the kitchen area, cabinets, under the stove, fridge, etc

I have not had the chance to use it on a roach however, my guess is that it would. I have been very happy with mine. The only thing it doesn't do well is get extremely small spiders (1/16 inch diameter / 0.1-0.2cm size) and a spider on the curved edge of bottom of bathtub (you end up poking it which harms it) however, if you first push the spider onto the flatter surface it works fine.

Yes. I purchased this because I have pet birds. I just used it. Many times I'll walk around and find roaches and the minute I spray this, the roaches are dead! This is excellent!
