Cockroaches under my keyboard, need help!

Another way that I think is if you can spray it using the baygon. Now I think you should clean your place as much as you can. Then avoid eating near your computer.

Gosh! I am getting the creeps and my hair is standing on end just while reading this topic! I have no idea what to suggest but I see that others have helped youin previous responses. How sad that we cannot domesticate them to do something useful

Firstly, are you eating by your keyboard? Then don't, they are probably living on something like the crumbs, etc. I did also hear they even like to eat glue and toothpaste. What do the baby ones look like? Are they tiny? I would use a roach spray after wash the keyboard then dry it again before use to get the eggs out.

CLOROX BLEACH. Of course you CANNOT put it on your keyboard, and IF you use it in the basement you will have to have PLENTY of ventilation. That being said, you need to clean certain places in your home with bleach. You need rubber gloves ($2 or $3 dollars), bleach, water, and a thick rag. Wash floors, tables, anywhere that can be bleached safely. Make sure you open windows and doors!! Do NOT use around pets!!

Ewww!! I would be freaking out if I were typing on top of cockroaches ! This is gross bud, sorry, I hope you get a solution but I don't know one. Bug bomb the house? No, that would probably be far too much for cockroaches? Well I don't know but I feel for ya man, hope you get done with it all soon.

yaaaak! I really hate cockroaches....Good I seldom see them at home now because I used to draw some lines using chalks that can exterminate cockroaches and other small insects any place I thick an insect would dwell or passby. This special chalk was introduced to me by my friend which I bought from a store near our office.

You need to get a professional exterminator into your home to get rid of them. My IL's tried all sorts of stuff from the stores and nothing works. When you see one there are hundreds lurking elsewhere in your home. They like warm moist places and love electronics. They used to love the IL's answering machine.

Hello micklor! They are nasty! Indeed this afternoon I was thinking about writting about them too (you won me the idea lol). This time of hot and humid weather is time for cockroaches to invade our kitchen. I`ve been fighting them, the best aid is having our places cleaned. Then I come almost midnight and I find them running around when I light up. For me is the best time to sanitize. As they are on your keyboard I would buy a new one, or neat my keyboard taking all the keys one by one, sanitizing the base, and then putting again keys. Look for the sanitizer that stands for three or more weeks. Blessings micklor... dainy

nasty! use some strong bug spray.. i have not experience this but i find using bug spray quite right..if not well..go and buy new keyboard and stop eating near your keyboard so that there won't be crumbs near it.

Hi micklor, This is the first time that I hear of roaches inside the keyboard. There must be some food inside that is attracting them. If yours is a detachable keyboard then I suggest you discard it and replace it with a new one. Keyboards are relatively inexpensive nowadays. If yours is a laptop then I'm afraid you need to send it to a qualified technician to open it up and have it thoroughly cleaned. Have a nice day.

Just ask a computer technician to disassemble your keyboard and have it cleaned. That will surely help you get rid of every cockroach stuff in your keyboards. And also avoiding eating while typing. It may be one of the cause why these insects are staying.

you need to keep your keyboard clean and never eat when you type something, or even you kill them at this moment, some days later you will find another group of cockroaches. sorry that i don't know how to exterminate them coz the are inhabit in your keyboard, maybe you should buy a new one.

Yakz! Cockroaches! Stop eating or drinking while on your computer. Like any other insects they like to live where there are plenty of food supply. If you can't avoid it, clean it up as soon as possible. On the baby cockroaches, there maybe more eggs inside your keyboard, you must disassemble it, clean all the eggs and spray an insecticide.

Cockroaches thrive when there is food or food leftovers. My suggestion is that take a day to clean your place. That's the only solution.

There are several items on the market to kill them. I have heard from a reliable source that crushed silica gel will work. It must be in powder form so it will stick to the roach or bug, then it will dry them out. There is a product available in the US that I tried when I got my first apartment and found roaches. It is called Black Flag, and it worked! Took a few months to get rid of them, but after that I never saw another one again and I lived there for three years.

Since keyboards are pretty inexpensive nowadays, why don't you get a new keyboard, saran wrap it (so that no pesky insects can get in? One nice thing about doing it this way is that you can always replace the wrap whenever it gets dirty.

Hi 1 stop eating by the key board 2 if you can afford it by a wireless keyboard. Then with the old board Spray it with bug spray throw it out

Dishwashing liquids can really kill roaches, we had tried spraying them with it and in a minute or less they're lying lifeless...

Sounds like you need to throw your keyboard out and get a new one. There must be something in your keyboard that is attracting them, like food.

he3x.... i,m fear with cockroaches and if i meet it,i always ordering my mom to keep it away from me.
