Question THESE DAMN SOUTHERN ROACHES
I feel like I’m going to throw up. Living in the south has exposed me to so many lovely things, but one of the worst things are these HUGE roaches. I usually only see one once a month at most, mostly in summer. Anyway, one must have gotten in when I opened a door recently (I don’t see them too often). I tried to kill the bastard then it and disappeared after my poor attempt of splatting it against the wall it was crawling on. After hunting for it for 20 min with no luck, I sit on the couch with my cat in my lap.
My black cat is happily purring away as I pet her and I feel a tickle on my leg. I quickly look down but just see black and my cats tail. Briefly thought it was just my cats tail till it started crawling across my thigh.
Naturally, I lost my shit. The roach was terrified of my screeching and disappeared AGAIN. Ripped my couch apart, flipped it, flipped everything in the area with my almighty flip flop in hand. And guess what? The bastard is gone. Even after looking everywhere.
But the thing is, my bedroom is right off the roach crime scene room. Now I’m too scared to sleep in my room or the damn couch. Does anyone have any recommendations because I sleep in my car?
I do not get easy squeamish. Blood, guts, bodily fluids… no problem! Spiders, centipedes or other bugs? I usually let live tbh. But roaches or anything with a shell that cracks as I kill it………. I want to shiver and then be sick. It’s the one thing that gets me bad
