Anyway, you have some serious chase to make.

Maybe if it's cokroaches you can use plaster/sugar - mix of powder only- or borax/milk concentrate -this one makes little balls- sweets (if the place is adequate, dry enough, and not accessible to kids/animals), they nibble on and die of plastering.
Damn those escargots! Payback???
