Cockroaches can transmit disease and cause allergies which are both dangerous to one’s health. Luckily, there are ways to solve this kind of problem that are natural and effective without the need to use harmful chemicals. You can learn this simple trick with this video tutorial by Natural Cures on YouTube, plus, you will only need sugar, baking soda, and toothpaste for this solution. The sugar will attract the cockroaches and compel them to eat the solution, then the baking soda will dehydrate the insect which will then lead to its death (baking soda can also neutralize the odor that they usually leave behind), and the toothpaste contains fluoride which is also very toxic to cockroaches. Read the simple step-by-step instructions written down below and watch the video tutorial as well. I hope you find this hack as helpful as I did!
What you’ll need:
- 3 tbsp of sugar
- 4 tbsp of baking soda
- 3 tbsp of toothpaste
- Bowl
- Spoon
- Small containers, plastic pots, lids, etc.
Directions:

In a bowl, add the sugar, baking soda, and toothpaste, then mix them all together until well combined, and then divide them into small containers. Place the solution in places where cockroaches usually stay or pass by, then once the solution has dried out or is already filled with dead cockroaches, change the solution to fresh ones. Make sure to keep these solutions away from pets and kids because they are dangerous when ingested. Learn how to prevent cockroaches from swarming your house by watching the video tutorial.
