Do Cock Roaches Come In Black Now?
I noticed a few black bugs (about an inch long) scamper away from my dog's food dish.

Do I have roaches?

OH MY GOD!!!!

2. Get Boric Acid and spread it around in the corners of all your cabinets
and underneath areas where the pets can't get to it. It's the miracle solution to help get rid of cockroaches and it's not going to ruin the ozone or cause brain cancer when using it (like bug spray)
