Improve the cleanliness of the building. Cockroaches will not live and breed where there are no sources of nutrition lying about for them...

One thing I've seen about using boric acid is to apply the powder in a very thin layer--they recommend sort of puffing it out of a squeeze bottle or similar. The concern is that cockroaches will avoid thicker layers like we would avoid snow.

This might have been in a Wikipedia article.
