    I live in an apartment complex. No matter how much I clean, if my neighbors are nasty, roaches from their apartment come into mine through the vents. Frustrating!!

      I HATE THAT! OMG I am so sorry!! I had a friend say using a filter in the vent helped...and LOTS of Diamoteaous Earth everywhere, even under electrical outlet plates. Used Advion bait gel too. I am very upset with too many slumlords not caring and leave it on the poor tenants shoulders. 😢

      Been living in this house for over 20 years with NO roaches, ever...Had NEW next door neighbors move in and within 3 years of them moving in this house has ROACHES...Doesn't take a rocket scientist to know where these roaches are coming from. Some people are NASTY asf.

    If I owned an apartment complex, I would first of all not let pests take over! I would also drill holes here and there in all walls(holes that can be easily plugged up) and puff Diamoteaous Earth in the holes with one of those powder applicators! I am so sorry to the many tenants affected by this. 🙏

    I’m dealing with a similar thing. This is the 5th apartment I’ve been in, but the worst with the bugs. In fact this morning I was laying on my couch and saw a huge one just chilling on my ceiling.
    Considering breaking my lease to get away from it. But another friend suggested having a local health inspector investigate it to help me maybe get some money back.

Like how i end up doing your responsibilities? Then I don't even trust my clumsy 😒 self with raid 😂anyway after a year or 2 they became immune to raid and smart so smart alot of them jump off stoves and countertops to escape you chasing them while you knocking over your flat-screen tvs and getting tom& Jerry'd by a damn roach. Then that roach you were chasing escaped whilst you knocked over your tv and broke it 😒. Yes this happened to me. I have pstd of them crawling in my ear. 😮‍💨

Spider's have become very endearing to me , as they often invade my home very close to me a do much better job then raid 🤯. So when I do chose to remove the spider's I usually wait a few days feeling very guilty it feels like killing a ally . It is like the anime "attack on titan " except more like attack on human. Recently captured a 《invader》 new pet bold jumping spider cute little bugger. When roaches mak3 me mad i send them to spider world 🌎 😤 home of my pet bold jumping spider : Invader Zim. He is awesomely cute and terrifying ugly. Sometimes i get scared of going to hell on killing roaches violently alone in mass. These roaches came with the apartment these not my roaches 🥴.

    We've had roaches for years since a drug addict neighbor who never cleaned moved in and caused them. We've also had the same shitty exterminator come MAYBE every other month and even when he does he sprays in like 4 corners max and leaves. So because of that it's almost as if nothing at all was done for years so they've exploded in population. Every time I go in the kitchen at night there's probably hundreds all over the floor. Doesn't matter how much I clean and I've tried every poison and natural remedy physically possible but they just keep coming. Now they're coming upstairs and I have to put sticky traps under the legs of my bed to make sure they can't get on my bed. I feel like I'm trapped in an inescapable roach hell that will never end.

    There may have been an infestation of roaches,before the tenants moved into the apt. The roaches are in likely in the appliances,behind the cabinets,walls,in vents,under the floors,under the wooden door frames,etc.The Exterminators don't always get to the root,of the problem.Place a bit of beer in caps,in corners,use boric acid,baking soda & water mixture in corners,roach disks, traps & roach gel.I push myself to sweep more often,disinfect & put food in secure food containers.If you buy, or receive used items,check for infects,eggs & filth.Check paper shopping bags,boxed,wooden & paper packaged products,books for insects.Search for holes,cracks & entry ways.

      They’re also attracted to water, I had a washer leak in my unit and that’s all it took for an infestation. People think your apartment has to be absolutely disgusting to attract roaches and that’s not always true. Of course a disgusting apartment will make it difficult to get rid of the problem don’t get me wrong. Even a little bit of clutter like seasonings and spices in your cupboards it’s good enough for them.
