My dad dipped all our pets with a solution of malathion one year. It nearly killed the whole darn dog and cat but they didn’t have fleas anymore.

Lol my old man would chase the dogs around yard with a pump sprayer full of that stuff. Both eventually died from large tumors

My dog gets that pesticide you feed them. The name escapes me at the moment but it's expensive.


Only available at the vet. You can't get it at TSC. I haven't physically seen a flea in a decade. It'll even kill the ones in the yard. Figured they'd developed the same for humans. Takin a pill and you're good for a couple months.


But then again, researching. It's a oral given pesticide. Doesn't seem to effect the dog. But still.

Maybe give that a try on your cockroach infestation?

We rarely have a flea anywhere around our house. I attribute that to fire ants. I only kill the ant mounds in the middle of our property and leave the mounds alone that are on the perimeter of the property. The ants take care of fleas and ticks.

Oh, No,No...

I love my dog. The cockroaches have one day left. Bought the pack of Demon. $14 with tax. Two dissolve packs per a gallon. I'll probably use all three for good measure.


They are going to die. They just don't know it yet. I may live in a ghetto but there will be no roaches in my house. Nope.

Because of your methods I consider you basically an organic pest control guy as it pertains to your perimeter.

I’m proud of you buddy!

I had them bad at the lake house at Rayburn a few years back. Inside, outside……homicide!

This stuff was the only thing I could get to kill um. I even called a pesticide company and didn’t work.

The best way that I have found to get rid of them is go to the feed store and get sulfur flakes it won’t kill them but they will leave I have never seen it not work it doesn’t have be spread heavy. Do it at least once a year getting started might take twice there will be a smell at first but will go away had people tell me I am crazy till they try it
