Prepare the cloves: Place a handful of whole cloves in a small bowl.
Place in affected areas: Put the bowl of cloves in areas where you've noticed cockroach activity, such as behind appliances, in corners, or along baseboards.
Leave for 5 minutes: Let the cloves sit for 5 minutes in these areas. The strong scent of cloves acts as a natural repellent, irritating the cockroaches and causing them to flee the area.
Clean up: After 5 minutes, if you notice that the cockroaches are gone, you can wipe the area with a cloth or paper towel to remove any leftover cloves.
