Would someone please calm me down before I flip my lid...

If you are worried about spraying toxins try the bait. It works great , comes in a syringe anad you just put dabs around in hidden areas.

Is there a possibility that by putting down bait I am attracting more of them and not getting rid of any?!

I know I'm overthinking all of this. I need a good slap.

Cockroaches succumb to boric acid when they crawl over treated areas. The tiny particles of powder adhere to the cockroaches' body, and the material is ingested as the roach preens the powder from its legs and antennae. Some boric acid is also absorbed through the greasy outer covering of the insect's body. All species of cockroaches are susceptible to boric acid provided the powder is applied into areas where the roaches are living.

Seriously, could I do that or will that be harmful? My home is nearly 300 years old, I have ALOT of cracks and crevices in the floors and at the baseboards, etc.

We live in an old house and just sprinkled/swept the boric acid around last week for ants. It worked great!
