Man, I used to have a friend who had a house like that. Worst infestation I've ever seen. The roaches would just crawl around openly during the day. All around the house. You couldn't leave an open drink around. Even a fast food cup, they would crawl into the straw when you weren't looking. They would get into appliances. I remember I left a laptop over there for a while. When I got it back you could see little bits of them in the fan, in the keyboard, and when I saw one crawl out from the case when I was using it I threw it away. You would constantly hear little "smacks" as they fell from the ceiling. The few times I crashed on his couch, they would keep you up at night crawling on all over you.

It's probably the heat and the light. When flatscreen TVs came out roaches were all inside my trashy uncle's TV, and any who has been around a druggies place knows they'll crawl inside every electronic device. That's why malfunctions were originally called bugs.

this is my life right now. i live in an apartment that came with the fuckers unknown to me at the time and i found them living in the microwave and had to throw it out. my girlfriend replaced it with a ninja foodi but it too has these strange vents along the side that seemingly do nothing but provide a hiding space for these fuckers to dwell. i found a roach crawling on top of it today (we thought we had got rid of them) and sprayed it down with raid and bleach and quarantined it outside just to be safe. seriously though, why do all electric cooking appliances have these weird vents on them?

Images like this make me remember how thankful I am I live in a desert near the equator and not a tropical equatorial zone. I've visited those zones enough to despise the bugs. Sure, I have all matter of spider, scorpion, and centipede sort of creepy crawlies to contend with, but so long as I am relatively cognizant about not leaving doors and windows open without screens, it's not that big of an issue. In tropical zones, those critters will eat their way through meters of wood to get inside your home within a couple of years. Might as well set your alarm clock to play la cucaracha.
