Hot Sauce for Roaches

I had a professional pest control service come treat my home for roaches. I told him that I had been using hot sauce and water in a spray bottle. He had me use it against his stuff and it worked almost as fast.

He said if I had started using it when the roaches first appeared, I wouldn't be having this problem. So a word to the wise, use this early and every day and save money!

Does the spray stain the woodwork?

I just used a brand of hot sauce from Save-a-Lot. I mixed around 1/4 cup of sauce in a spray bottle and filled with water. I sprayed on roaches and any place they could be hiding. Good luck!

How do you use it? Do you spray it around floorboards, etc. the way a pest-control company would pesticide?
