Ewww...roaches!!!!

I swear, no good deed goes unpunished.

My neighbor is losing his house. I drive a pick up truck. When he asked me to use it, I just tossed him the keys. He's a mechanic and a good friend of my parents, so I trusted him with my car.

He put furniture in the bed of the truck and smaller items in the back seat.

Unfortunately, I completely forgot that his house has a nasty cockroach problem.

Tonight I saw a roach in the cab of my truck I drove home with my purse in my lap because I'm terrified that one will crawl into my purse and move a million of his closest friends in with me.

Is there any way to remove the roaches from my car? And prevent having them in my house?

Food grade Diatomaceous Earth, it's a white powder of diatom fossils, sprinkle it everywhere in the car and you can vacuum it out later when you're sure the bugs are gone. It's only harmful to things with an exoskeleton, scratches them and they die. In the house you can sweep it under the baseboards.
