I'll start. Apt next door is having a cockroach infected. 4 days ago, I was playing sims on my laptop, wearing my eyeglasses. Right lens got blurry, took off, huge cockroach was crawling across inside of lens. While I was wearing them. Freak out ensued.

Aaaaaaaaaah, I hate it.

New neighbour moved in earlier this year and brought them with them, and they're just little German cockroaches, but seeing them at all freaks me out. I'd probably die in your case.

Landlord's done a full "move all the furniture" spray treatment, and bi-weekly gel treatment, and they just keep coming. Mostly babies, but no matter how clean the kitchen counter top is I still find them scurrying about on it.

Probably means they're in the walls and the place needs full on fumigation.

Considering where they're coming from, I think that's spot on, and I feel like it's going to get to that sooner than later.
