A boric acid-rodenticide mixture used in the control of coexisting rodent-cockroach infestations.
Rodent bait combined with a commercially available boric acid compound was found in laboratory experiments to be completely effective in eliminating American cockroaches given the mixture as a food source. The presence of boric acid compound did not interfere with the rodenticidal capacity of the rodent bait.
