Why is this $11.49 when a box at the store costs ~$3.99?

Order from Walmart.com , it's $3.97/box.

Borax will also kill ants and roaches. You mix it with equal parts of sugar, and leave water nearby. The combination of borax and water makes bubbles in their stomachs. Plus they bring it back to their nests. For roaches, since they cannot burp, their stomachs literally explode. Boric acid works too, but differently. It gets better their bodies and shells and itches then to death.

Can this be used in high efficiency washing machines?

It comes in a powder, so if you have one of those washers where you can only put liquid detergent in it, to be funneled in via a tube to be squirted into your wash, you would not put it in there, as it could clump and clog the line. I just lightly sprinkle it on the clothes, themselves, directly, so I'd imagine you could do the same kind of thing in any washer.

One cup borax + one gallon water : inhibits mold. http://www.dbw.ca.gov/PDF/CleanGreen/fs-cleaning.pdf

Amazing household multitasker!

Best all around product besides baking soda and vinegar in my house. It is an excellent laundry and dishwasher booster as it helps soften the water, helps remove stains from clothes, decreases water spots and works as a great ant killer! Simply mix with jelly or honey to create a loose paste and leave in their trail wherever you see them coming in. They will swarm it and grub, (fight all instincts to bust out the flame throwers and send them to Hades,) let them eat to their hearts content. They will take it back to their home and queen and share as they do and then the magic happens. The Borax slowly poisons them and you never see them again! After they are gone, I sprinkle a combination or cinnamon and cayenne pepper around the area they came in so they won't come back that way and voila! No stinky pesticides!
