needed so that gutters are
not sagging.

Cockroaches Can
Be Controlled
Sanitation helps to prevent a
rapid buildup of cockroaches, but
periodic applications of in
secticides are usually needed.
Ant and roach aersols are ef
fective against cockroaches, but
it is necessary to respray at
regular intervals because the
roaches may invade a house from
the outside or be carried inside in
packages or cartons, say Ex
tension Service entomologists at
Pennsylvania State University.
Treat only those areas in the
house where roaches hide or walk
while searching for food, and
always follow carefully the
directions on chemical con
tainers. Contact your county
agent (Cooperative Extension
Service Office) for further in
formation
