Ammonia is familiar to everyone because of the sharp smell, resulting in a sense of unconscious. The prescription of ammonium hydroxide is not only in this - the range of application of the agent is wide: from household needs to use as a medicine. Most often ammonia is used:

Feedback
Last spring found cockroaches in the house. There were not so many of them, so I decided to trust the “grandmother's” remedy - liquid ammonia.I processed furniture, floors, doors, in some places walls with diluted material. I myself had to run away from home — the smell was very sharp, a lot of alcohol dripped into the water. When I returned the next day, I did not find cockroaches. I did the procedure several times, only the concentration decreased. Now everything, I do not have a cockroach, thanks to the bat and grandmother!

In order to prevent cockroaches from returning to an apartment, this treatment should be repeated every 3-4 days for a couple of months. It is worth remembering that this tool does not kill cockroaches, but only scares them with its sharp smell.
After surface treatment it is worth leaving the apartment for a few hours. Upon returning, by all means carefully ventilate it, because the pungent smell is unpleasant not only to cockroaches.

Feedback
In the summer we went to the country. Gathered to rest, friends called. Quite unexpectedly, they saw cockroaches in the little house. Especially in our village there are no shops, but there is a pharmacy. Bought sal ammoniac, fast girls all washed-missed with a folk remedy. Smelled in the room, of course. But while the kebabs were doing, while the friends arrived, the smell disappeared and the cockroaches disappeared. I hope that during the winter the pest in the whole village will die out.

Precautions
Concentrated ammonia against cockroaches can cause harm not only to cockroaches, but also to human health. When working with this substance should be no less careful than when using chemicals.
Always wear a respirator and gloves. If there is no respirator, it can be replaced with a gauze or medical mask. During operation, open windows to avoid ammonia poisoning.
Important!
Do not allow liquid ammonia to enter the oral cavity and stomach: this will lead to severe burns and significant disruption of the gastrointestinal tract. Death is not excluded. If the product gets on the skin, allergic reactions and burns are possible, so immediately after contact it is necessary to wash the lesions with running water. Inhalation of vapors may stop breathing. It is these terrible consequences that should always make you follow safety precautions.
Analogs
Experienced people are advised to use for getting rid of cockroaches, not only a recipe with ammonia, but also other means with a strong unpleasant odor. So, for this purpose you can use turpentine, vinegar, kerosene. It must be remembered that kerosene and turpentine have a rather persistent odor to people. Therefore, it is desirable to be able to live some time in another place. Cockroaches during this time, having sniffed out ammonia vapors, will also leave the territory.
You can try to get rid of uninvited guests odorous plants: elder, clove, tansy. They are effective against a small colony of insects.
Feedback
I was advised by ammonia to a plumber who saw cockroaches near the pipe when repairing. Poured a bottle of alcohol in the bathroom and near the kitchen sink. Added water. Washed floors, tables, windowsill, chairs. Survived its evil spirits. Occasionally “guests” crawl from neighbors, but I now have an effective remedy.
