I finally caught the bastard
Smashed with a broom, spray, squished inside a paper towel and the fucker was STILL ALIVE!!!! Digustingly thrown in the trash and brought outside for trash day tomorrow.

Worst part is, he was living right around my computer desk...SPYING on me. Little bastard. And fuck his little friends, too.

29. I hope the f**ker didn't stink too.
That's always the final straw for me. They are stupid fast, creepy looking, and some of them stink! :puke: I'm glad you caught him though.

33. No stink. Wet stuff is the spray I used on the little bastard.
It didn't kill him, either. I had to squish him inside a paper towel, and even then, he started crawling around. He was like G. Bush in that way.

41. Get some Boric Acid powder pronto.
And liberally deposit it in all likely roach hiding and transit spots. Boric acid is generally safe for pets and people and hell on insects.

You also need to look around for sources of water for the bastards. They have to have a water source where you would see a sheen of water on a surface. Then clean, clean, clean and you will have a good start. When cleaning see if you can get a borax based cleaner like 20-mule team.
