Cockroaches are nasty.

Do you have a cockroach infestation? Are you being driven mad by cockroaches? If so, read the following article on how to get rid of all of your cockroaches.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    The first step to getting rid of all of your cockroaches is to find out where they live. Are they in the kitchen, the bathroom or where? Try to map out the rooms that they are living in. This is so you can target them more carefully.

  2. Step 2

    Now that you have found out where the cockroaches are living, it's time to plug holes. That's right, plugging holes. Most of the time, cockroaches are living in a hole or a gap between wood or tiles. So you need to get some putty and put putty in every single hole that you can find. This will take away the cockroaches' homes and will make it that much easier to get rid of them.

  3. Step 3

    Now that you have plugged dozens of holes with putty, the cockroaches will be forced out into the open. It is time to buy some gas to kill them. At many stores, you can purchase poisonous gas that will release over a period of time, eliminating the roaches. Buy several canisters so that you can gas bomb the roaches several times in a row. That's right, you gas the cockroaches not just once but several times. If you've done your work with plugging all the holes, you should be able to eliminate every last roach. It worked for me! Good luck!
