Dealing with Cockroaches,
One of the ways we used to deal with mice plagues was to place an empty wine
bottle on a shelf with its neck pointed out into space. A piece of bacon
hung out the end of the bottle (like a cork) and the whole neck of the
bottle was coated on bacon fat. A bucket half filled with water was placed
underneath.
The mice would climb onto the bottle, try to get to the bacon and slip off
into the bucket - and drowned.
Would this work for Cockroaches?
Where I grew up it was far too arid for Cockroaches and Canberra is far too
cold !! minus three degrees Celsius right now.
