Just the word "cockroach" gives me the shivers! You've mentioned home defense spray - is this a product one can purchase at Ace Hardware, or anyplace else? My wife and I are snowbirds, and when we came back in October, the house was inundated with the large, Palmetto variety. We eventually eliminated the problem, but if there is a spray that we can use before we leave that would offer a bit of protection, that would be helpful. We have a pest control company that supposedly looked after the place, but they still got in.
