Sorry to beat this topic to death, but in case anyone's agonizing over buying Roach-Pruf vs. boric acid, DON'T! It's the same thing! The can of Roach-Pruf that I have lists its ingredients as: 99% boric acid 1% inert ingredients Now for my 2 cents worth...This stuff is GREAT! I've tried many things (including an exterminator that my apartment complex paid for), but Roach-Pruf = boric acid beat them all.

It's the same thing! >The can of Roach-Pruf that I have lists its ingredients as: > 99% boric acid > 1% inert ingredients Just curious: if Roach Prufe is just boric acid, what are the two patents for? The shape of the can? I dislike roaches enough to want to spend the extra money. So Roach Prufe costs triple what plain boric acid does? If it works ANY better, it still costs under $10 a can, for a lifetime supply (if you never move), why not splurge?
