buti at nakita ko itong thread na ito. i agree, parang di effective ang racumin sa daga. 2 days ko na ginagawa yan. kinakain namna [textspeak!] tinapay.pero buhay pa rin yung "bisita" ko.
try kong gawin yung mixture ng flour,sugar at baking soda or borax

my husband bought ant-killer sa ace hardware, almost 300 pesos ata, 6 packs yon, nilalagay namin sa mga lugar na daanan ng ants, sa ilalim ng bed para hindi kami akyatin sa bed, sa gilid-gilid, and effective talaga, wala na kaming problem sa ants ngayon, kita talaga namin na patay yung mga ants sa loob nung pack. kasi parang sweet ata yung nasa pack na na-a-attract sila.

Borax/flour/sugar mixture - Di din eto effective sa daga. siguro sa ipis.. especially the german ones

the baygon chalk always works to kill cockroaches.  and if you use it where ants pass through, you'll get rid of them also   :-)

You could buy organic pesticide products sa mga groceries. These are eco- friendly. Sa development kasi namin (from DMCI Homes), the perform fumigation o pa- usok kaya naman walang lamok o langaw sa lood ng condo.

pano kung magpapayato palang ng house? advisable ba isabay ang pest control pagkatapos itayo habang hindi ba tinitirahan?

Maybe sis honeybunny used Terro.  Imported siya na clear solution, it kills ants and roaches.  Maraming versions ng Terro sa ibang countries (ex. yung iba may parang covered bowl/container na pwede pasukan ng ants), but so far yung nakita ko pa lang na available version dito sa Manila e yung nakalagay siya sa small bottle na kasing laki lang ng alcogel.

Ginamit ko siya sa bahay, and effective naman, after about a week nawala lahat ng ants.  I don't know if it's going to work on all kinds of ants na meron dito sa Manila.  Sa ibang countries kasi may iba-ibang variant ng Terro depending on what kind of ant you're looking to get rid of.

I recently purchased 1 Liter of BGone's Liquid Concentrate kasi daming roaches dito sa 'min. It seems to work naman kasi when I spray in the afternoon, sa gabi, I would see some dead roaches na mukhang lumabas sa mga lungga nila. Hehe.

Problem is, I think kelangan daily talaga ang pag-spray. Di kasi ako nakapag-spray for a few days, and ayun. May nakita nanaman akong roaches. Tsaka, grabe, ANG MAHAL! 1 Liter is P2,500 na kaagad. Whew. Parang hindi kaya ng pockets ko kung kelangan daily ang pag-spray. :(

I saw Messy Bessy has an anti-roach spray. Di hamak na mas mura... P450 for 500ml and P1,100 for the 2-Liter refill. Has anyone tried this? I wanna steer clear of chemicals sana, so puro natural/organic stuff lang ang hinahanap ko... Hehe. :)

check mo yung mga pinanggagalingan ng roaches.. kasi sa apt namin marami rin roaches gawa ng drainage sa laundry area. Since last na door kme, dun lahat napupunta yung dumi from 1st unit hanggang samin. Lahat ng dumi andun. so cnlose namin un since hindi naman kme naglalaba sa bahay. If ever ginagamit namin [textspeak!] area na yun, binubuksan na lang namin then close agad after. Also, dapat walang basura na nakakalat. Yung trashcans dapat malinis lagi specially sa kitchen. So ang key lang isa dapat malinis lagi lahat.  :D

I went to Ace before to ask for the ant killer (Terro) but they only had the sprays. I can't use that as I have an 8 month old baby at home. Our ant problem has come back! They are invading areas where there aren't any food - bedroom, bathroom, etc. One time I woke up coz I was being bitten and there were so many ants in our bed!!
