09/21/02: I hate bugs

The pest control guy for my apartment complex is completely worthless. He breaks into my apartment every week or so to spray for bugs, and I have yet to see anything come of it. What good he is? None! My wife tells me that the other day, he came in, sprayed a little around the kitchen, looked directly at a fucking roach crawling along the counter, and said, "Right then. Looks good!". Then, he left! WTF!? Is this maybe a sign that your poison isn't working? Couldn't he at least have made a show of spraying or crushing the roach? Obviously, his job is just for show. I mean, some people take pride in their work. He obviously doesn't.

This crummy apartment has roaches everywhere, and I honestly don't know what to do about it. I've tried all the roach motels on the market, and they seem to work for a little while, but then after a while I just start seening roaches again. I guess they build up an immunity to it.

We have a garbage disposal, and I use it. It doesn't matter, though. They just eat the crumbs off the dishes. I always rinse my dishes and put them in the dishwasher. My wife doesn't always do this. So I started picking up after her. Now, the damned bugs are going inside the dishwasher to get to the crumbs. I can now open the dishwasher at any given time and see roaches in there. I try running the dishwasher more often, but I can only run it so often. What am I supposed to do, run it when there are only three plates in there? Even when the dishes in the dishwasher are clean, they're still in there!! What the fuck are they eating off of clean dishes?? It's like it's their own personal nightclub.

I try not to throw food in the trash can, and i've never seen a roach in the trash can. So I don't think they go there. I do have sealed plastic containers that I use for my potato chips and cereal, though. They're not gettin' in there. I mean, i'm casing my apartment like Perth is doing his house. My only weak spot I think is the dishwasher. That, and my neighbors.

I'd like to feel that I don't live in a nasty roach-infested apartment. I'd like to know that roaches aren't crawling all over my silverware before I use it. Am I supposed to break into my neighboring apartments and pick up after them to? Auggh!! I hate living with roaches! Could some please suggest something?
