- Sugar attracts cockroaches, while baking soda reacts with their digestive system, causing them to die naturally and effectively.
How to Make It:
🥄 Mix equal parts baking soda & sugar in a small bowl.
🐜 Sprinkle the mixture in cockroach-prone areas (under the sink, near garbage cans, behind the fridge).
💦 Leave a small bowl of water nearby – The roaches drink the water, activating the baking soda reaction.
🔄 Repeat every few days until you no longer see roaches.
