Cockroaches—those dreaded, uninvited guests that can make anyone shudder. If you’ve ever spotted one crawling from your shower drain, you know how unsettling it feels. But here’s the good news: a simple balloon hack can stop them in their tracks.
Why Cockroaches Love Your Bathroom
Let’s face it—cockroaches are no one’s idea of company. They slip through the tiniest spaces, often entering through pipes, and your bathroom provides the perfect retreat. Warm, damp, and dark—it’s a roach paradise.
To make things worse, showers and sinks give them easy access to food residue and moisture. That’s why regular cleaning and keeping your bathroom dry are essential first steps in driving them out.
Meet the Balloon Trick
If you’ve cleaned everything and roaches still crawl from your drain, it’s time for the balloon method. It’s quick, cheap, and surprisingly effective.
