will it kill roaches?

I haven't tried it on roaches. But I am going to this week. Ask again in two weeks.

Yes it will kill roaches. That is why I bought it. It also stopped ants from invading my house. Since I put it along the baseboard on my porch area, I haven't seen any spiders around my front door.

Yes it will. Just spread it around where you know they are. It can kill bedbugs, ticks, ants, carpenter ants, termites, fleas. For bedbugs just put it around the bed posts at the floor. They cannot fly so they will have to walk in it. Do not breath it is the only warning. Chemical companies do not like it so they made the FDA and USDA keep this secret hush hush.

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 believe it will work on roaches. The product works by causing dehydration. I suggest you look online, particularly departments of environmental quality for more information that could relate to how you want to use the product. The one that can be used on human food will work, but there are other forms that could work faster, but safety depends on how and where you want to use it.

Hi. No roaches here so I can't answer that question. It does work well on spiders and cicada killers though.

No, it does not work at all. It created more of a problem then we had in the first place. If you have a couple of roaches here and there, if you use this device, you will have hundreds. It calls them into the house somehow and then they breed. We could not figure out why our minor issue grew into such a big problem. We called the manufacturer and they told use that we'd see a slight increase, but then it would die down. He was correct on the increase, but it did not die down until we pulled the units out of the walls and trash them. It even created a swarm in our lawn. It all stopped once the units were gone.

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.

Have no idea--I bought it for cockroaches and it did not work very well-at least it is not toxic

I really don't know. I treat my yard with Diazanon pellets and I just never have fleas or ticks. I am thinking it should kill them. My reason for this purchase was because there was an old rent house next door full of roaches and we could not get rid of them. It did work. For roaches i had to spray every three months inside and out to get rid of them. My guess is if it says it kills ticks then it probably does.

I do not know if it will kill cave crickets. Chances are it will. When I sprayed our yard, it killed every single bug. You take one ounce of Conquer, add it to a gallon of water, and fire away. This stuff is strong! Be very careful!

I do not know. All I know is that we were seeing 2-5 roaches a day and over a weeks time I unloaded an entire tube (not all at once) in the crevice above the dishwasher. That was the week before Thanksgiving 2014 and the next week until now (end of Feb 2015) we have not seen any roaches. Putting the little dabs did not seem to work well. I highly reccomend this product.

It is a contact insecticide, so it wont do anything to kill the roaches that do not directly come in contact with the powder

Yes, It works pretty well with almost any insects . It eliminated most of the roaches and ants , even some mosquitos were lying dead on the floor. sprinkle it every 2weeks.

It works very well on roaches. That's why we bought it, and we haven't see one since about a week after we plugged them in. Just make sure you have two or three units, depending on the size of your home.

No, this will only kill grubs in the soil. You might look into Diatomaceous Earth to kill those types of bugs organically. Good luck!

Yes, it will kill the smaller German cockroaches as well as others. The main ingredient in these tablets is boric acid which efficiently kills cockroaches and ants, etc. Very handy as they come in a hardened tablet form.

With Cypress Oil and salt water it does help eliminate roaches. It is not an overnight success but with time it does work and makes your house spell like peppermint.
