Mikey, you have all my sympathies!! I had never encountered cockroaches until I moved into a very old apartment building with a whole bunch of units. It only takes one tenant, one time, in a very long history of renters, to bring in or attract one cockroach. Then, for the entire life of the building, no matter how often the exterminators come, there are roaches somewhere.
The rent was cheap where I was living, I was young, flexible and very foolish, and there were a whole lot of other advantages, so I endured them for a little while. They were really very well behaved and mostly kept their distance. Then I calculated the cost of having food delivered instead of cooking (if you turned the stove on they all rushed out of it and were very scary), and decided that I was spending so much money on avoiding them that I could save some by moving. So I did.
Anyway, gross!!!!!!!!!! |
