you could just lay it in cracks cuz it's a powder substance...and once it looses it's power... you just wipe it up. But i guess the mustard thing would work just as well...

I can say with great certainty that microwaves have no affect on roaches. One time my friend and I were raiding a local circle K (7-11 like place) for a sugar fix. My friend calls me over to the industrial microwave they had for cooking frozen burritos and pointed out a roach the length of a quarter runnin around in the microwave, at first it was gross and then a split second later we had an idea.

We fired the microwave up on high and turned the dial (yeah this was some time ago) that damn roach didnt even flinch its just kept walking around the microwave like nothing was going on. We ended up turning the dial all the way to the end and walked to the register.

We paid for our crap and then walked back after like 5 minutes and that damn thing was still chillin. I realized then that roaches will definitely outlive humanity.

there is this stuff, its a liquid gel, and looks like a caulking cartridge.. you put that stuff on all the cracks of your house, (cabinets, around mirrors, toilet seal, doors, etc etc) we did that at my appt, where we had EASILY 20 roaches a day.. to this day, that house is roach free.. i think its by raid, or bengal.

Update on my roach situation...

I used a fogger because I wanted those roaches dead ASAP. I went to a grocery and bought a can of Raid fogger... I set it off for the night and came back the next morning...

My house looked like an insect museum with all the dead bugs on the floor including about 20 roaches in the kitchen....

No more roaches anywhere.. no more bugs either hahaha.

foggers rock
