Bought, started looking effective remedy. We opted for Karbofos. Conducted a complete disinsection of the entire apartment. After 2 weeks, the procedure was repeated. A month later they did a general cleaning, they did not see live insects. We live six months until the insects disturb.

    She lived in a dormitory while studying. On the second floor, the boys had cockroaches in almost all rooms. The girls on the third floor did not have this good, because they always cleaned themselves, did not leave dirty dishes, crumbs on the table, floor. During the summer holidays, when no one was in the hostel, they poisoned cockroaches with Karbofos several times. After pest control, no more Prussians were seen. Effective, inexpensive drug.
