Dealing with cockroaches can be a daunting task, but a simple, homemade solution using just two common household items—Johnson’s baby powder and sugar—can help you keep these pests at bay. This easy-to-make mixture is non-toxic and safe to use around the home, making it an excellent choice for those who prefer natural pest control methods. Here’s how you can create this effective cockroach repellent.
Why Johnson’s Baby Powder and Sugar? The combination of baby powder and sugar works effectively to deter cockroaches. Sugar acts as bait, attracting cockroaches with its sweet scent. The baby powder, however, contains talc, which is believed to interfere with the cockroaches’ ability to navigate and can be lethal to them when ingested.
Ingredients:
- Johnson’s baby powder
