I Could Use Some Help ASAP!!!?

My building is being fumigated today and i have said no to the spray as i would have to leave for 4hrs and given i live in a small hick town with not much to do and i don't drive i wouldn't have anywhere really to go for 4hrs. They have opted to use a paste for pest control but they have to put it in places where my 4yr old could get it on his hands and then ingest it. We have been told that if we refuse this our tenancy will be terminated immediately, so we are looking for something natural. Is there something natural i could use to kill roaches, spiders and ants? I really don't like the idea of using chemical pesticides in my home for any reason, i believe that all bugs even roaches have a purpose, what that purpose is i don't know but i would rather not kill a bug with something chemical. I am also 6months pregnant and the fear i may not be thinking and get this paste on my hands and ingest it concerns me a lot. Any suggestions on what i can get that is natural and not chemical to the first answerer i have spoken with the pest control guy and he says given i am pregnant i would have to leave for about 8hrs and i have no family near me and EVERYONE has bugs whether they see them or not and i did not bring them to my place they were already here in another apartment and they are trying to prevent an outbreak or infestation. most of you people don't even know it but those chemical pesticides, liquid or paste form are worse for your health than the actual bugs themselves.

1. The last answerer was a little harsh, but your personal beliefs cannot override your landlord’s duty to maintain a clean environment. Either buy your own home and research natural pesticides (although that sounds rather oxymoronic) or continue renting and be at the mercy of the property owner.
2. Problem solved. Do not kill these insects start putting them in jars and start selling them for a $1.00 each or give them out as presesnt
3. all them rude answers are ignorant you can get them little roach traps and put them under your cupboards and it will get rid of them they are safe for you to use just wash your hands after you handle them or you can use bug spray outside of your house around the cracks
4. You really have not choice. The landlord gave you notice and has the right to keep his property free from bugs. He has the right to evict you if you don't follow what he has planned. I know it is hard with kids and all, but unfortunatly, you have no choice.
5. I wish had the answer Hun wish you were closer you could come stay with me for a week.
