Roaches at home.

[chickened]

A roach can find a habitat anywhere. I once read that a roach can find everything it needs for sustenance inside a television set. Now I read that some years ago. That may not be true for the new TV's. But roaches are adaptable. I have seen roaches, big ones, in the halls of a courthouse and in a newer fancy upscale grade school in Saratoga, California.

Not all habitat is prime.

No. But roaches, like us, will settle for real estate that isn't prime if that's all they can find. Like any squatters, once roaches get a foothold, it is next to impossible to get them out. Ask people who live in Florida or one of the older buildings in New York City.

My point is poor people won't spend the cash to get rid of them and people with disposable income usually will. Will they eradicate them? a bug that can survive radiation... probably not. I kind of always thought they live where they do because they like beer, mullets and half t-shirts.

Honestly? Not a nice thing to say...........I know many people with not so much money who don't have roaches, and if they did I am sure they would spend the little money it costs to get them out of their home. Nice for you not to be 'poor people',

Really? I never noticed!

I live in Texas (Land of the Giant Flying Cockroaches) and have found that Bengal works the best. It's a spray but goes on dry and creeps into all the crevices where roaches like to hide. It also lasts for months.
