you wouldn't react this way if a bug the size of a god-damned mini tube of toothpaste, but with antennae, decides to take a nap on the remote control? [ Reply | More

op: here's the difference for me. I think of cockroaches as bugs you have in your kitchen all year long. I think of water bugs as monster cockroaches that only come out when it's humid. we've lived in our place since October and only saw a water bug for the first time last week. [ Reply | More

Waterbugs are much, much easier to get rid of than the little cockroaches (which never ever go away). There is probabaly a nest in the basement and the building needs to take responsibility!!!!! Keep a spray can of Raid Ant and Roach. It is lethal!!!!!!! spray on once and it will die in afew minutes. But again, the stuff is lethal to Keep Out of Reach. [ Reply | More
