Nobody likes cockroaches, and few things are more annoying than when you find that your house has become infested with them.

When you find just one cockroach in your home, you can bet that there are hundreds more there as well. They typically build large nests in your home, preferring to make their dwellings in dark and warm places. Though you can buy various bug sprays that will kill some of them, it’s unlikely that they will wipe all of them out.

You can also hire a specialist to come in and exterminate them, but professional treatments can be costly. That’s why we’ve found a new natural method to get rid of your cockroaches all by yourself!

The ingredients you need to make the concoction that will kill the cockroaches are:

  • A Bowl
  • A Fork
  • 100 Percent Boric Acid
  • ½ Cup Sugar
  • 1 Egg Yolk
  • Gloves

First, boil the egg until the yolk is hard, then place the egg in a bowl of ice water to cool it down quickly. Once you have done this, peel the egg and separate the white from the yolk, then set the egg white aside and put the yolk into a bowl.

Pour the 2.5 ounces of boric acid into to the egg yolk bowl while smashing the egg yolk, and add ½ cup of sugar while mixing the entire thing thoroughly.

Keep stirring until the concoction has the consistency of play dough and then put on gloves before rolling the mixture into little balls. Place the balls all over your house, wherever you’ve seen cockroaches, but please make sure that your children and pets can’t get to them. The cockroaches will start nibbling the balls, taking pieces back to their nest to share with the other roaches. Slowly but surely, the boric acid will kill the cockroaches.

This method works in getting rid of ants as well. Try it out for yourself, and let us know how it goes!
