Roach Problem in Our Garden


Question
Charlotte,

They used organic manure when they installed our grass, now we have a roach problem in our grass and garden.  Do you have an organic solution for getting rid of them without harming our plants?

Thank you,
Ida

Answer
Hi Ida Marie;
That is not a problem.
Roaches normally live in the ground. They don't harm any plants, they tunnel through the soil, aerationg it, and they eat harmful insects.
When people put down insecticides, they kill off the natural food supply for roaches, and the roaches come into our houses to get food, and to get away from the insecticide.
They are a BIG problem in the house, but a very desirable thing to have in the garden.
The benefit the garden, they don't harm it.
Charlotte
