Tonight, right as I was ready to go to bed, I went to turn the light off on the fish tank and saw a HUGE cockroach just chillin' right where I put my hand. Yeah, it was nasty...anyway, it was a female that was carrying an egg on her back. Yes, this is how they grow their babies and usually have 10 - 12 babies hatch. Gross, I know!
That dang bug had me chasing her for 1/2 an hour! I had armed myself with Lysol and got in a few sprays here and there, but she kept hiding in the fish tank. So I waited...she finally came out and got far enough down the tank that I was able to douse her with Lysol (I know, a little inhumane, but hey, when they are in MY house...) I scooped her up in a container and noticed ANOTHER roach behind the tank! This guy was already dead, but there was A LOT of poop behind there, so I am NOT fully convinced that that is it for the roach findings...
We had a nice little break from the bugs for a few months, I guess that time is OVER!!! Welcome to TEXAS!!!
