for an obscene apartment (often described as a “postage stamp” apartment by my
less bitter-about-it relatives). We caught a few mice there (which I was able
to feed to our classroom boa), but my dad made a game of trying to beat his
nightly cockroach-killing record. See, it’s all about whether you make it fun .

<br>
[My dad is primarily a medical entomologist, and secondarily a parasitologist,
and to my mother's dismay dinner conversations often involve worms, mosquitoes,
and other insects. We used to go through his books to identify our
pests.]<br>
<br>
I've never had quite the experience Mike describes, but I remember a couple of
occasions when my parents decided to clean out our storerooms in M'sia.
As the boxes came out, so too the roaches that had taken cover in and around
them. My dad didn't really mind them, but my mom's approach, adopted by
all of us, and which I blame on her excellent modelling, was much like Mike's
below. <br>
<br>
The worst events were when we would get an intense but short rainstorm in the
mid-evenings. After the rain if it got warm again the roaches would come
out of the storm drains and fly in, or up the drains in the bathroom, and then
we'd have them - big ones - flying all over the house. We killed over
thirty once, and I remember my sister running for the shelter of her room,
screaming, with a big one buzzing at her head. It got in with her, which made
her scream even more.<br>
<br>
When World or European Cup soccer games were broadcast in the middle of the
night, I always had a badminton racket by me, to deal with the airborne
roaches, and my slippers for the terrestrial ones. And a hockey stick for
the b.f. rat that we were pretty sure had moved into our room while we were in
college, but that's another story... <br>
<br>
Good times, good times.<br>

call I did in the late 90's (I won't say where). An ice machine was not
producing ice. Located in the dimly lit basement, I began to remove the
exterior panels when, just like in a horror movie, literally thousands of
roaches fell onto the floor out of the machine. So many that they had stalled
the condenser fan motor. Yes, I screamed like a little girl while I grabbed my

I've never seen a roach in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Moscow</st1:place></st1:City>.
This is the second time I've heard a roach story here, but I've still escaped
them.<br>
<br>
In <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Malaysia</st1:place></st1:country-region>
we had Periplaneta americanas, which would fly around outside and inside, and
many other varieties. In <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Davis</st1:place></st1:City>
we had smaller, non-flying roaches, and I was relieved not to find them here.<br>
<br>
Now I guess I had better start looking around more carefully.<br>

<br>
In 1978, I went into the tunnels, as I was working for a company that had a
contracted job down there.<br>
<br>
It was heebie-jeebie time... HUGE cockroaches, in my imagination now, they are
as big as Madagascar Beetles! HA!! I did not think those critters
existed in <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Idaho</st1:place></st1:State>
because of the cold. <br>
<br>
It was big down there, and there was evidence of people visiting for non work
purposes. I don't have a clue how to get to them anymore. It was quite an
exciting part of the job.<br>
