JT Eaton Crawling Insect Killer, Powder

Boric acid kills roaches better than anything else on the market. This is the cheapest that I have found it.

Preventative maintenance. Works amazing. Take the time to do it once with patience. Such a big deterrent.

When I moved into my new apartment, I learned that there were already some very unwanted & unwelcome creepy, crawly roaches living here. Worried about my dog getting sick from cross contamination, I decided to try boric acid. I didn't do the sugar & flour thing but instead sprinkled the stuff all around the perimeter of KY entire apartment. I really dumped a bunch underneath the bathroom vanity and along the wall I share with another tenant. Sure enough, there was suddenly much heavier activity at first, now I only occasionally see one of the nasty things crawling across my floor, even at night when I go and turn on a light. A couple of my neighbors use a professional company. The folks that rely on the landlord to spray... well, it's just BAD! Every few months, I sweep up all the old boric acid and any dead bugs I find and replace fresh new boric acid and I can say that I rarely see the nasty things anymore, quite an accomplishment considering how bad they are everywhere else! My only complaint is that this stuff can kinda clog up instead of pouring out smoothly. Easily solved by sitting the bottle down and sort of banging it against a hard surface. Small price to pay for living bug free!

This product is 100% effective against roaches and other insects if used properly. Follow the instructions and watch bugs disappear from your house permanently. The only thing is that it takes a couple of weeks to work because it does not kill roaches on contact, rather it sticks to their bodies and dries them out over a period of several days. During that period they go back to their nests and spread it through their colony. Within days it's stuck on all roaches in the colony and once they all die from dehydration, the colony is gone forever. This will get the roaches that you can't see or reach, as opposed to bug spray which only kills the ones that surface in your house.

As a lot of customers pointed out, amazon seems to have trouble delivering these without them opening along the way. Was able to save it and get refunded for the accident. Also something else that has been pointed out is the nozzle not unloading well. This is also true as even I had trouble putting some out my self. It seemed the nozzle gets clogged very easily. Solution: its powder so just close the nozzle and break it up a little. Odds are its just clumping up. Now I live in a apt with neighbors who where pigs below me. They recently got evicted. So now Im basically cleaning up the after math. Along with the entire complex and landlord. Sad when 1 bad egg ruins it for everyone. I did not use sugar like others so I dont know if that would have changed the outcome or not. So far in just 1 day I noticed roaches getting into a drunk state moving slow falling over and so on. So its clear it does work. How ever I cant say if putting sugar in it would have made things faster or more effective. This review is purely based on the boric acid its self. I did not know of the sugar method before putting it down as there was nothing I seen telling me at the time. So my method may be not as good for all I know. I have never had roaches before and obviously did not know about that. These things really should point that stuff out. We are not all exterminators with years of experience. Based on the boric acid its self I give this stuff 3 stars. It works but very slowly and the delivery was not good ether. My review might be different if I knew about the sugar detail and depending on how well it works. But since I didnt at the time I cant vouch for that.

The name says it all!!! So glad I found this product.

This stuff really works but not immediately. New neighbors moved in and I started having critters in my kitchen. They slowly stop being in my kitchen then eventually I did not see any at all. It takes 2-3 weeks for you to start seeing results

Doesn't work; a waste of money!
