6/26/2005, Cockroach poison (warning: a little disgusting)

Lately, I've had a few cockroaches.  I've caught 4.  I saw one other previously, but he's probably one of the ones I caught.  It's really disgusting.  It's not many, but they creep me out.

I caught these two a few days ago.  I didn't want to squish them and make a mess and possibly attract more.  So, I put them in a disposable container and froze them.

Anyway, I finally got some poison.  Boric acid with sweet sesame seed paste as a bait.  They smell really tasty, even to me.  I'm told they're non-toxic and very effective.  I hope so.
