This is a good thng to point out. Nonetheless, we don't know if there is
something promising here that might eventually be legal, or that it is not
acceptable in some places where people read BEE-L. Researchers (and many
read BEE-L but do not post) also may find this an interesting avenue, worth
pursuing.

Not knowing the details, I reserve judgement, but appreciate hearing the
report and hope peoplle will continue to discuss non-permissible treatments
where of interest, while adding the caveats that Chuck provided.
I have no idea what 'roach gel' actually is, but some compounds, like borax,
might be very safe to humans and achieve acceptance by authorities, in the
way that oxalic has.
