The Balloon Trick That Stops Cockroaches in Your Shower No one wants cockroaches in their bathroom, especially coming from the shower drain.
These unwelcome guests thrive in warm, damp spaces, and your bathroom provides the perfect hiding spot. But there’s a surprisingly simple way to keep them out using a common household item: a balloon. Roaches are drawn to your bathroom because it offers everything they need—moisture, warmth, and darkness.
Drains are an easy access point, especially when food residue or standing water is present. While cleaning and reducing moisture are key to preventing an infestation, sometimes extra measures are needed.
