They will not help you with a roach problem. If you want to try to do it yourself, there is a bait called advion that works. I''ve seen it on Ebay & used successfully in commercial accts. many times.

Moth balls are not typically effective at killing roaches. While they may deter some insects due to their strong smell, roaches are known to be resilient and can adapt to certain repellents over time. It's recommended to use proven roach control methods such as baits, traps, or insecticides for more effective results.

Moth balls will not kill roaches or any other insect. A moth ball will keep moths from nesting and feeding around it though.
