Hello!

I'm moving into a new apartment with my family and I noticed a few
roaches in the apartment.  This is a 3-family house, and I'm renting
the top (3rd) floor.

I've lived with a roach problem for almost six years, and I DON'T want
to repeat the same situation as roaches is one of the main reasons I
decided to move.  Sadly, roaches are common anywhere in New York City.

I want a treatment for getting rid of the roaches.  A treatment that
works.  I've already called Terminix to spray and gel, but I really
want a treatment that works.  I don't care if it will be a little
costly, or what have you.  I'm just looking for the BEST treatment
which works!

Please help.  If you can dig up the "best" treatment to get rid of my
roach problem ... I'll leave a 100% tip ($15).

Thank you in advance!  This is a very heartfelt question.

I wonder if this might help.

No immediate solutions, but this this a good starting point.

Techtor's reference confirmed my opinion that cockroaches often
migrate from an adjacent apartment  (Chapter 4, How did I get them?).
This suggests that you should consider talking to your new neighbors
and having the whole house treated. In an older building,
unfortunately, the roaches may know more places to hide than an
exterminator can find.
