Joey G on Apr 19, 2012without using harsh chemicals, you can always try a water, mineral/vege oil, soap mixture which you can google. Otherwise, you will have to go with a chemical like malathion or some other insecticice. they are more effective, but I'm not a big fan of using those strong chemicals around my house.Helpful Reply
