Since it's in a paste and you apply it to areas like baseboards in the kitchen and behind appliances, you don't have to worry about fumes. <br /><br />I've used it before and it works well, but it's not so great on it's own if you have a full blown infestation. It does, however, work well at maintaining a bug free space after spraying. Since you don't have that many, I'd recommend trying it.DeathToRoaches!noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21462935.post-8484453663492488042007-07-19T02:47:00.000-04:002007-07-19T02:47:00.000-04:00I've heard that boric acid is helpful in getting r...I've heard that boric acid is helpful in getting rid of roaches, but I'm hesitant to use it because I have an older dog with some health issues. Any idea as to the toxicity to animals?<BR/><BR/>Also, I was wondering why egg needs to be mixed with the boric acid - does that attract the bugs? Some accounts I've read where boric acid was used alone.<BR/><BR/>I only have a "few" bugs in my house (that show themselves, at least) but I want to be rid of them once and for all.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15079216810168274841noreply@blogger.com
