Among the pests we dislike and repulse the most are, without a doubt, cockroaches. In fact, we don’t want them in our homes at all. The problem is that they can settle in any corner without us even realizing it.
Even worse, if they enter our home, they can nest, and their family will grow. Don’t be surprised if we find even their eggs in some household appliance.
Why are these insects so repulsive?
The reality is that this insect can cause disease because it moves across any surface. This is why it deposits bacteria from its own feces and the waste it eats.
As we well know, they carry streptococcus, salmonella, and staphylococci, and even when we step on them, our shoes are covered in viruses that we spread throughout the house as we walk.
Remember, they’re slippery creatures, and before we know it, they’ll quickly hide in any hole they find. In fact, if we see cockroaches everywhere, it’s because they’ve already left nests in the house.
It is very common for them to seek out dark, warm, and closed places, such as: under and behind the refrigerator, behind the microwave, and any appliance that emits heat.
For all this, let’s see how to get rid of cockroaches and eggs:
How to get rid of eggs and cockroaches
This is a homemade trick to scare away this disgusting plague of cockroaches and eggs. Let’s see what it requires:
- To start, you can use compressed air to remove everything inside the appliance. Obviously, you should unplug it first and place it in a place where the cockroaches can’t escape. As soon as you apply the air, all the cockroaches will begin to emerge.
- Once all the insects have emerged, the devices are disassembled and cleaned with isopropyl swabs to remove eggs and feces.
How to prevent cockroaches from invading our home
To block cockroaches from entering and prevent them from dismantling appliances, there’s a homemade solution that repels cockroaches. Let’s see how to prepare the homemade remedy; it only requires two ingredients:
- You only need sugar and baking soda in the same quantities.
Note: Baking soda swells the stomach of these insects and this “destroys” them from the inside.
- We start by mixing and stirring the two ingredients, then place it on doors and windows. You can also place this mixture on other entrances; remember, cockroaches are attracted to sugar.
- Specifically, these insects will consume not only the sugar but also the baking soda. As we well know, consuming baking soda will kill them.
Let’s apply all these tips and tricks to get rid of cockroaches and eggs, even inside appliances!
