We sprinkled it around the edges of the walls, under the sink, etc. They can be a real problem in some cities. My husband says you can find it in a dollar store. It might be called Roach Powder or insect powder, but make sure the main ingredient is boric acid. When we lived in Florida we rented a house for a while and the walls had wormwood from the ship they got it from. We only lived there until we got our own house six months later and the problem really diminished. In Florida one has to be very careful about crumbs, dirty dishes, etc., as they will attract things. When we lived in Chattanooga I heard a welcome speech for all the teachers' wives and the speaker called Chattanooga roach city.
