Just sprinkle it on the floor close to the walls. Especially where you

The borax doesn't exactly "repel" the roaches and such it affects the
coating on their "shell" so they die. They also carry it back to the
nest and spread it to the others, effectively eliminating the whole
group of them. G

Sounds good -- borax is going on my shopping list this week. Thanks.

In the desert you will always have some "bugs", it is the nature of
where we live, and it doesn't matter how clean everything is, they
still show up. sigh.

Yes, I know that -- after living in the desert for over half a century
gasp, it's something I've learned to live with. But somehow
cockroaches seem so ucky. G
