Related to Borax and Cockroach issue: Cockroaches and other infestations - I discovered using my dishwasher seemed to attract them. I hand-wash my dishes now and rarely ever see a cockroach. We live in an apartment. Check for openings in your home.

If you are building a house, you can sprinkle borax powder around the entire perimeter during framing (also do in kitchen area). The cockroaches won't even get IN the house--stopped cold!
