Here's an image I don't need in my head...

[Critters2]

The Orkin guy was over in the church building, doing his regular preventative spraying (cockroaches have been ubiquitous around here since the floods--so we're trying to stay ahead of the game). He just came to the office to tell me he'll need to do something more this time, because he found cock roach feces in the building. Cockroach feces. There's a pleasant thought. The two most disgusting things in the universe in one phrase. I may never eat again.

1. so you decided to share it with all of us

how thoughtful!

:rofl:

[Critters2]

2. So others do find it unpleasant....

I was afraid it was just me.

3. So if cockroaches can survive a nuclear blast, how durable is cockroach feces?

[Critters2]

[ThomCat]

5. I'd mention it to your cleaning staff.

So that they know to be thorough. :(

[Critters2]

7. Oh, I will.

I asked him where they were. I won't be opening that cabinet any time soon.

I think the cleaner should get combat pay for dealing with it.

6. Eh, I grew up with that shit. (haHA!)

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger!

11. When I complain about my childhood, remind me of this. nt

15. I'm hoping it's only visible to the trained eye...

I mean, this guy makes a living looking for it. No matter how bitchy my Trustees are, my job is never that bad!!

14. Bleach out the infected areas.

Other cockroaches follow the "chemical trail" from the feces which in turn lures more cockroaches.

Bleach.

Lots of bleach.

[Critters2]

16. I'll tell the cleaning staff.

Thanks!!

[lost-in-nj]

18. then lots of

roach motels in between sprayings.....

every little bit helps!!!

20. He said he placed baits around this time,

rather than just spraying. He explained that spray keeps 'em away, mostly. Baits kill 'em. I'm assuming "baits" and "roach motels" are the same thing. I'm kind of glad we have a pro doing this. I don't have to deal with it (had 'em in the house this summer--at the time of the floods). Combat roach motels are my friend. But I'm going to let him figure the best way to handle it. That's what we pay him for.

21. The things I've learned living with an entomologist.

:crazy:
