If it is their main source of food then you will have to get rid of the board.

Absolute cheapest solution: get rid of the broken boards, tape some cloth over it as replacement/cover.

It will help if you can post an actual picture of the actual thing being discussed.

you must be a child.did you read the post.my kitchen is spotless.not a crumb of food let out at night.no roaches anywhere in the house except around the bottom cabinet which is made of particle board.particle board is pressed wood chips combined with glue.roaches eat the glue.this is common knowledge among adults in the home construction and repair.

What do you think the new cabinets will be made of, retard?

>this is common knowledge among adults in the home construction and repair.
so is how to get new cabinets.

Basic cabinets are honestly not that hard to make.
You could literally make them with only a jigsaw and a pocket joint jig.

Hate to break it to you, that's not how roaches work.

The cheapest option is probably plastic totes, but unless they're air tight roaches will get in there too.

No, that would be osb, anyone in home construction or whatever the fuck you said would know that.

There are pretty much only a couple things beyond style and finish that are different between the hundreds of cabinet options you can buy.

Particle board or plywood boxes, style of hardware and drawer construction

If, for whatever reason, you think the roaches are eating the glue in your cabinets then aside from making solid wood cabinets ($$$$) whatever you buy will be an engineered wood box with some sort of glue or binder holding plys, chips, sawdust etc together in the cabinet panels.

Particle board is exactly that, wood chips, sawdust and wood "particles"(hence the name) mixed with a glue or other binder and formed with heat and pressure to make sheet goods. OSB is also the same, with visibly larger wood chips or "strands" that are "oriented" in layers that arrange wood grain perpendicular to one another for strength and then glued and pressed under heat to make sheet goods....or "boards" (Oriented Strand Board) Engineered woods get their names for reasons, microlam (lvl), paralam (PSL), glulam, mdf, etc.

Your CHEAPEST option, would probably be to seal the cabinets. take them out, one by one, and paint on a few layers of polyurethane or other varnish. Paint might work ok.

For diy, drawers and doors are medium difficulty, but cabinets are basically just a box. If you're worried, use a jigsaw and cut replacements one by one.

IMO, probably roaches are living off of something else, eg cave crickets in basement, and just nesting in cabinets. Make sure they're not eating your old clothes or books or anything, they'll eat pretty much anything organic.

Just clean and use boric acid to cut down the numbers.
