    Diatomaceous earth kills the little bastards and it is non-hazardous to humans, as long as you don’t snort the stuff.

    Fun fact, it’s even used as an additive for food. If you wonder why shredded cheese doesn’t stick ? The famous E551 is that product.

    I used it when dealing with a roaches invasion. I don’t how well it worked (can’t be worse than regular bugspray, these bastard get sprayed and laugh at you), but it’s definitely cool to know that I can use that near food without being worried

      Bug spray is interesting. Often times it’ll work, but it won’t immediately knock them down. They’ll crawl away laughing and then die behind the couch. I would like a little more stopping power though.
