I'm struggling to fight a German roach infestation. I live very close to a business and every other summer it seems like I'm battling roaches. Especially after they bomb their place for bugs. I typically use advion gel, boric acid and those hormone growth regulators. The last time we really had a problem was in 2016. But now we have a bearded dragon (belongs to my sibling) and I couldn't use my usual methods for control / prevention because I wasn't sure what could be used around the bearded dragon. Fast forward a couple of weeks and now the problem is worse (of course) and I'm still not sure what's safe. It's a challenge to do any research because if you type roach and bearded dragon you typically get food results or people asking if they can use lizards as a form of roach control. I just want to know what's safe. I assume that boric acid (away from his tank) is okay, but what about advion roach gel? I'm not worried about him getting into poison. I'm worried about a poisoned roach getting into his tank and making him sick if he eats it. No one will take him temporarily so I'm lost. Obviously I want him no harm but I can't live with roaches crawling all over my kitchen either.
