I have been seeing palmetto roaches in our Florida home recently, after about 20 years of none. I do now want to spray pesticides. What natural things can I do? Thank you!

Use baking soda. It creates gas in roaches that they can't expel and they die. I've used this for over 25 years and it works!
I open the windows and spread it inside the frames, I put it in flat lids inside my cabinets and under sinks and by doors.
The boric acid that is sold specifically for roaches is not very effective, but if you go to the pharmacy and buy Boric Acid Eye Wash and sprinkle it in areas such as behind the fridge and stove. I have seen this work in situations where professional exterminators have failed. Just reapply every so often.
