HELP! Last night I was under my 90g tank and found 3 live roaches. I need to get rid of them before my wife see's them or my hobby is over. I buy lots of used equipment and never had an issue. I want to get a jump on this before it gets out of hand. I live in FL so roaches are everywhere but we pay a company to spray our house for bugs as my wife would lose her mind if she saw any kind of a bug and a roach would be the worst. The company that sprays the house I wont let in the room with my tanks "maybe I should have" But I am always afraid of what ever chemicals they use hurting my tanks. So I need to know what everyone would use and be safe for my tanks. I am sure I am not the only person who has been through this. My home is not dirty "Maybe a little cluttered with tank stuff" but not dirty. The cats box was right next to the tank and I found one in there 2. I also know the old statement of if there is one you can see there are 100 you cant. I put down a couple of the Raid bait houses kind of thing but we all know how well the over the counter stuff works. I thought about boric acid but I am worried about any getting in the tank. I have a large Do it yourself pest control place up the street from my home but I dont know what to get. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks
