re: #778 LudwigVanQuixote

Once upon a time, I lived in a train station that had been converted to apartments. Every floor was single sex. The first floor was mostly office & laundry, but a couple of “boy” apartments. 2nd was ladies, 3rd was guys, 4th was ladies. It was a 4 story building. We had a BAD cockroach problem. Management sprayed one floor at a time. Spray 1, drive them to 2. Etc. We taped the entries to my apartment with double sided tape. Caught a LOT of the bad boys, and decided to start a “zoo” to see how long a roach could live without food or water.
Well, my floor got cleaned up REALLY FAST once the inspectors saw “the zoo”. We had roaches last over 2 months with NO food or water.
They will rule the earth, long after the humans are gone!
