Goodbye to cockroaches in the house: the natural trick that stops them from entering and eliminates them forever

- Make your spray: Mix about 10 drops of peppermint essential oil in a cup of water in a spray bottle. Shake well to combine the ingredients.
- Spray around drains: Once a day, spray this solution around the drains of sinks, showers and toilets. Be sure to cover any openings where roaches could enter.
- Repeat regularly: To keep the barrier effective, repeat this process daily. Over time, cockroaches will associate drains with the unpleasant scent of peppermint and will tend to avoid these areas.
