One last tip about roaches. They absolutely hate strong odors. Add a few drops of Listerine and peppermint essential oil to a spray bottle. Spray the solution along baseboards, under furniture, under the kitchen sink and anywhere you’ve seen a roach.

Cinnamon deters ants

Ants don’t like strong odors, especially the smell of cinnamon. Coat cotton balls with cinnamon powder or cinnamon essential oil and place the balls in areas where ants are likely to enter, such as near windowsills and door frames.

1. Seal cracks and crevices

Ants enter the house from the outside through cracks and crevices. Use caulk around the house to seal cracks and holes where ants can enter.

Use salt to kill fleas

A favorite hiding place for fleas? Carpet. Sprinkle salt generously on the carpet; after a day or two, vacuum it up. The salt will dehydrate the fleas and kill them.
