The Popular Cleaning Product That Can Help Get Rid Of Cockroaches In The House

Nobody likes unwanted house guests, especially ones like cockroaches that carry disease-causing pathogens. These pests build homes in unsanitary locations like sewers and garbage and are an allergen source that can trigger asthma. Moreover, the bacteria and germs they deposit in your house can lead to staphylococcus, salmonella, and streptococcus infections. Thus, getting rid of cockroaches fast is essential to prevent them from causing too much trouble and inviting their family and friends over to settle in your home. Luckily, a popular cleaning product — Fabuloso— can help you banish these pests from your house.

Fabuloso might seem like an odd choice, given it's a multi-purpose household cleaner. But its chemical components, like sodium chlorite, lactic acid, citric acid, and more, and strong smell make it an excellent choice for killing and removing cockroaches from your home. While you can use either variety — lavender, orange, or lemon — lavender is the most effective since roaches can't stand its smell. Better yet, it's non-toxic to humans and safe to use. However, Fabuloso is a temporary solution as it won't deter roaches for long, so you'll have to continue using it on the pests that show up.

Fabuloso to banish cockroaches from your house

Cockroaches roaming about freely in your home can be an unsettling sight and will give you the heebie-jeebies. Alas, there's not much you can do since these pests find a way to crawl inside your home through tiny cracks and holes. So, to get rid of roaches and their colonies at once put some Fabuloso in a spray bottle and spray it directly on the cockroaches you encounter.

To exterminate the lingering pests who only tend to crawl out of their hide-y hole at night, clean your countertops, shelves, and other areas where you suspect they might hide or places they frequent and spray the disinfectant. Don't forget to spray behind the refrigerator, washing machine, microwave, and corners in the kitchen, bathroom, basement, and other dark places to get them all. Continue this ritual for a few days at the same time to get rid of all the cockroaches. Remember, you'll have to clean the areas where you sprinkle Fabuloso, as they get sticky over time. Alternatively, you can combine Fabuloso with ammonia or boric acid to cause irreparable damage to the roaches.
