Cockroach busters? Who to call?

By Qatarkid

Hi Guys, i've just come back from leave and have around 7 dead and 3 or 4 live cockroaches cruising on the ground floor of the villa.

1) Who do I call?
2) What does it cost?
3) How do I get it done quickly..?

I wrote that with both feet off the ground :)

thanks

Ewwwww roaches! Clean all corners of your villa from ceiling to floor and finish off with insecticide and boric acid. Cockroaches like dirty places, so keep your place clean all the time to get rid of them.

oh very bad !"yes municipality give the sipray just inform them.

if you want some home made medicine for them then here is:take

1 table spoon sugur

1 table spoon simple flour

1 table spoon flour # 2

1 table spoon boricpowder(used playing caram board)

1 table spoon Nido(full cream milk)

mix them with water and before it become dry make a small balls and through them into bedroom,kitchen,or where you want under the bed or cupboards no problem

in 4,5 days all cockroaches are finished,dead and never come again.

trust me i also did this one year ago and alhumdulillah my house clean till now.

if cockroaches are so much then you can take more quantity but remember all things have same quantity even you take in 1 spoon or 10 spoons.

That's bad! Shouldn't the Municipality be dealing with this? I remember, once when I was staying in Farij ibn Mahmoud, because it was an old house, three people with protective vests and masks from Municipality came twice every year to spray some chemical.

Hahaha, sorry to laugh but it reminded me of that same situation happened to us. I guess you just have to keep killing them and putting PUFF on every hole and corner of your bathroom. I really hate insects and I was having nightmares during that time. Good luck with getting it over with.
