Diatomaceous Earth Food Grade is another sure method of getting rid of them. Hubby says it cruel. I disagree. You just sprinkle like the baking soda and the food grade version is pet friendly. No need to make walls with it.

Dumb question:

Isn't it true that insects don't have pain receptors? I'm not into cruel, at all, but I also feel icky about making bugs suffer. However, I could SWEAR that I read something legitimate--not "the Internet," whatever that is--about insects not having pain/suffering receptors.

Do we have a resident Master of Bugs? (Wait--it's gonna be Dennis, you just wait and see...)
