Just me or how bad does it creep you out to turn on the light & find big ass cockroaches

in the kitchen sink?!1 Am talking, 2 INCHES.

So I spray vicious -cides. Be sure to wash all things in the rack before using!1

2. Yes, I have two of those. They are great against bugs.

But they do not work against rodents. I had a rat problem and paid $350 for a pest control guy to kill 17 of them.

5. The ones I had worked also

against rodents. My appartment used to get mice all the time under the sink. When I plugged it in, they were gone. Now my cat has nothing to play with...I am sure, he doesn't need mice in his life.

3. You think you've got it bad

At my place, the cockroaches turn on the light and find...ME!

4. I never find them alive...

only their tortured, dismembered corpses. That is the beauty of living in a multi-cat household.

8. *cats*!1 The answer in Lounge is always CATS!1

Like my circle of friends always bring the "solution" back to BEER!1

6. here is what works for us

Roaches HATE bleach

7. See, now THIS is the reason why

I choose to live in a place that has snow 6 months out of the year.

9. Hurry and catch them

Dinner is served.

They are quick little buggers so you got to move fast.

10. as an organic gardener

I know that diatomaceous earth works on all kinds of pests so I checked to see if worked on roaches and find that it does. Buy yourself a bag--it's not expensive--and sprinkle it around the border of every room. Open up every cabinet and sprinkle around the edges there, too.

Soon you will find dehydrated roaches.

Diatomaceous earth is the one organic solution that is safe for you, safe for you pets, and deadly to the roaches.

Now personally, I would buy that device AsahinaKimi recommends. Less work. But if you don't want to do that for whatever reason, diatomaceous earth will do the trick.

11. Even creepier

You're in bed, it's nice and dark, just about to doze off, and you hear one of those ginormous sob's fly across the bedroom.

There is no way to have a good night after that.

12. I once lived in an apartment with roaches

They were there when i moved in. They were gone by the time I left. But even after my reign of terror was over, every little smudge on the wall looked like a roach to me. Those little bastards get in your head.
