Month: September 2022

Here is my situation: * 835 square foot apartment – clean and atypical for pests. * I’m a clean freak. * No fresh produce except in fridge; * Nothing is thrown out and left in the open, and no food (none) is thrown away. I only serve what I Can eat, and eat limited things at home in the first place. * I have no open windows, although my front door has a bit of a gap, I Think. (it needs to be better-sealed) * I clean daily with bleach in all sinks and in my tub. * I never use my garbage disposal – ever. * I do put dishes in my dishwasher, which have food remnants on them, but mostly vegan (some dairy remnants if anything)

I see them come out at night, obviously, when there is not much other light on, and they do land on my plate if I’m eating, or swoop around. There aren’t many, but the few I have are probably more like dozens, because I Don’t believe I’m seeing only 2 or 3. I’ve tried vinegar traps, a sticky trap (with a blue light), bleach down drains. I have NOT tried a chemical drain dissolver.

Is this a seasonal issue? Or, am I missing a big problem with plumbing? The ABC PEst people won’t even come out because we were told this is “a plumbing problem”. But nothing is helping. Help!

5G from At&t is really sh!tty. It’s horrible all over Houston. When 5G+ or 5Ge pops up, it’s even worse. Can have 5 bars, outside away from any buildings and will still have the slowest speeds ever.
