Fed up with cockroach infestations? Discover a speedy DIY solution to bid farewell to these bothersome pests.

A creative mind has divulged an uncomplicated homemade remedy for deterring cockroaches.

For this concoction, begin by filling a glass with water. Subsequently, incorporate 4 agarbatti sticks and 5 camphor pieces (kapoor) into the water. Allow the mixture to simmer for approximately 5-10 minutes, then transfer it into a spray bottle.

Finally, apply it liberally in all corners, especially around the sink and stove, to keep diseases and insects at bay.

Cockroaches can be carriers of various diseases, including one particularly troublesome infection known as salmonellosis.

These insects are known to traverse unsanitary areas and feed on decaying organic matter, allowing them to pick up and transmit harmful bacteria like Salmonella.

When contaminated roaches come into contact with food preparation surfaces or consume human food, they can transfer these pathogens, potentially leading to salmonellosis when ingested. The infection can cause symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and abdominal cramps, underscoring the importance of effective cockroach control and maintaining a clean living environment to prevent the spread of such illnesses.
