I prefer the slow but sure way. Boric acid.
It is definitely nontoxic to mammals, birds and reptiles, kills Land insects slowly (say 72 hours) unless you apply heroic doses. Kills in a rather gruesome way, by dehydrating the bugs. It Kills very surely even in small doses, and most Importantly will kill any other insect or arachnids that eats the remains of the insects it kills. If a bug eats it, and a spider eats the bug, the spider dies too.
A fine dusting On the surface too fine to be seen by the eye will kill any insect walking over the It in 72 hours. The stuff doesn’t expire and will keep on killing as long as it is there. Remarkably most insects can;t smell it or taste it, so will never learn to avoid it. It will stick to the exoskeleton of nest insects and be brought back to the nest, where it will kill the other insects in the nest. But The stuff wipes completely off with any moist towel or tissue if you want to remove it.
Did I mention it is not toxic at all to mammals, birds and reptiles?
