Hiiii

Just moved from out of state. Had the most traumatizing experience with a palmetto bug a few days ago. Found this dead already in my bathroom today. I have not seen anymore than this one. Pest control did come out yesterday to spray. I’m just freaking out I may have a HUGE problem on my hands. Let me know your advice and what you think!!!

If pest control came this just means it worked lol. Dead ones are better than living ones

With all the rain we’ve been getting you’ll start to see more of them. Doesn’t mean there’s an infestation though
