    We passed on apartments where the floors changed color when the lights came on.

    I Blame the Neighbors. That house is so shot to hell that the roaches no longer wish to stay there anymore

    .....they say its too nasty for them

    They have decided to invade my home instead, but I am ready for them.

    You must kill them all at once not one at a time. One roach can live off of the glue on the back of a postage stamp for 3 weeks and in that time hatch gobs of young.

    You sure those were different roaches and not just one roach that kept coming back from the dead?

    Those little bastards are tough.

    Zombie roach!

    Do you have some kind of white board/message board on the fridge where you're keeping tally marks?

    So it took you an hour to murder only 3 cockroaches?

    No such thing as 72 roaches. Maybe 720 or 7,200...

    Anyone else start thinking of the Brothers Grimm?
    Nice going, BTW, but as others have said, I bet there's still more to be eliminated...

    I have chosen to resort... to "Chemical Warfare"..

    After consulting with the local Sorceress (my aunt), I have chosen to use a magical substance known as "The Roach Glue"


    It is a poison that seems to magically attact these invaders, where they eat their fill of it, then take mouthfuls back to their place of hiding and feed it to their young.


    Devious.. maybe


    But so far... it seems to be working



    I AM STARGUARD


    ROACHES BEWARE!!!

    If they're big and fast you might want to catch and train for the Roach Derby.

    Starguard, your house is nasty. And unless that next door house is connected to yours, you can't use them as an excuse.

    Hire yourself an exterminator and have him spray regularly. That's the only way to completely get rid of them and keep them from coming back.

    Not necessarily a dirty house. Do you live in the woods or burn firewood for heat?
