We at Allison Pest Control in NJ have seen some pretty bad cockroach infestations, as well as some novel methods homeowners have used to try to get rid of them.
Extreme Extermination
One individual in Washington decided to take the notion of DIY extermination to its logical extreme. A can of bug spray can certainly help control pests, at least temporarily, but this person decided to speed up the process by turning it into a mini-flamethrower. Predictably, this homegrown solution led to a situation that ended with the fire department being called. By the time they arrived, the resident had managed to extinguish the fire and nobody ended up getting hurt.
