Getting rid of creepy crawly cockroaches

Mix 2/3 cup of mashed potato (boil potato in water and mash in its own juice) with 1/3 cup of baking powder, roll into marble sized balls and place in cupboards.

Cockroaches will eat the balls and gas will build up in their guts from the baking powder / potato mix. Because cockroaches can’t burp, their stomachs explode and they die.

I can't believe they suggested that lo. Extra work for us, having to clean up guts.

If it actually works. The site says that these are oldie methods that aren't proven.
