How do I get rid of roaches? I saw at least a few that we got from our neighbor and it freaks out my mom since she's seen it. I spread out out some baking soda/sugar mix but its too early to see if that works

This stuff. Spray it on the bottom of the wall along the entire perimeter of the house, inside and out.

Seconding this. I recommend getting a pump sprayer as well. The gear that comes with it kind of sucks.

Stop eating in the house and towel dry sinks and tubs/showers after usage.
Theyre only here for food, they dont need shelter.
Theyll pack their shit and move back to your neighbors

That spray works awesome unless you have kids or pets, in which case get pic related. Can hide them out of reach and they work great.

you don't mention if you have pets or kiddos??? but if not Boric acid powder. spread lightly in crawl paths, corners, under appliance skirts.. the roaches will all die very quickly. keep up for month or 2 so any hatchlings/eggs left after matures die will be exposed to it also.
