Any type of airborne chemical with them is short-lived. Standing water has to be eliminated.Roaches are a different creature. They can be treated with residuals in cracks and crevices, but also with bait which they spread to the rest of the nest. The most unique effort I had seen were growth inhibitors which basically sterilize the males so they cannot fertilize. That has an impact on the population of colonies. But roaches come in a number of breeds. Some populate very, very rapidly. They may be the greatest survivors on this planet. The best defense is to seal up any potential opening and remove their food sources. Many a time people carry their larvae and transport them to lunch rooms, offices, and locker rooms. From there they can explode and hide.</blockquote>
