In addition to using peppermint essential oil, there are other practices you can adopt to reduce the risk of cockroach infestation:

- Seal food tightly: Store food in airtight containers to prevent cockroaches from approaching it.
- Repair any cracks or crevices: Cockroaches can enter through even the smallest gaps, so seal all cracks and crevices around windows, doors, and drains.
