Probably not in large amounts. You can sprinkle boric acid powder around, like under the sink, at doorways on top of door jambs, etc. As they walk through it they are poisoned. Be sure to keep it away from children. It is available at all big box and drug stores and very inexpensive. Your best bet is to have an exterminator come and get the process started. There stuff is much more effective.
