30% dishsoap and 70% water in a spray bottle will kill them. Also, try painting a piece of plywood or similar material yellow or white, then coating it with a sticky substance like petroleum jelly. Place the trap where they congregate most, and place smaller traps where they are trying to get in. When the trap is full, just scrape them off and re apply the substance. Oh...put non toxix food grade diatomaceous earth in the cracks and crevices to prevent them from entering. (an abrasive powder made from mineral remains of single cell aquatic plants. it kills by abrading and dehydrating crawling insects. Or, try non toxic roach killer (boric acid).
