Placing a band of dust on the floor around the edges of a room is not an adequate treatment. Many cockroaches may be able to go from their hiding places to sources of food and water with- out crossing the band of dust. PLACES TO TREAT For best results, apply insecti- cides to places where cockroaches hide. To find the hiding places, enter a dark room quietly, turn on the lights, and watch where the cock- roaches run. They may hide— Around the kitchen sink and drainboard. In cracks around or underneath cupboards and cabinets, or inside them—especially in upper corners. Around pipes or conduits, where they pass along the wall or go through it. Inside the motor compartment of mechanical refrigerators. Behind window or door frames. Behind loose baseboards or molding strips. On underside of tables and chairs. In radio and television cabinets. Behind mirrors.
