Default Household pests - Roach and Mozzie (viewer discretion needed)

Ever wondered what goes on in the kitchen late at night?







Stunt Roach, hanging off the edge of the chopping board. "Scrub those chopping boards!"

Even if I wrack it with newspaper and baygon it , and it is dead, I still veri worry. S-curry it is only false dead how ? It might suddenly jump onto my face and run into my month and go into my stomach to lay eggs

At the end of the week, many baby roachs will crawl out from my mouth

Yeah, I got them from YOUR kitchen. You didn't notice, did you? LOL...

I stay on the 3rd floor, so roaches are unavoidable. Try to keep the house as clean as possible but one or two strays will pop by once in a while one lah... Remembered once there was one big flying roach, dunno if it's old or what. Flew straight into my forehead. ha..haha... scared the sh** outta me!

As for the pics, can't sleep, so went looking around the house for things to snap. Ha..ahha... ok, for the sake of your breakfasts and lunches, pics removed

My apologies to all.

Remember that in those olden days, people selling black sauce in a glass bottle ? Hmmmm not sure what you call that in english , it is those black black salty sauce that we mix with cut red or green chilli to go with our food.

It took our family a very long time to finish that bottle. One fine day when we managed to finish it, we saw a big cockroach dead at the bottom inside the glass bottle. All the while we had been taking that source with our food for so many months .....

Think the cockroach went in before the blur worker pour the sauce in it

Keep clean also no use one. I stay at fifth floor but during the night, those comando cockroach will just fly straght into my room without warning. Once that happen, I always had war with them. So sick of them till now I put a baygon in my room so that I could response in 3 second

But ever since I put baygon in my room, it seems that so far no more cockroach fly in liao

No use keeping clean, it doesn't work. I got awoken at 6am once when I felt something tickling my heels, grrr... I had to declare war and turn my room upside down before I found it.

Another time was more worse, just finished off one, dozed off, woke up, found another on the ceiling when I opened my eyes. Grrr...

Oh my gosh! Yucks!! But at least the roach is in one piece? Ha..haha...

Remembered once I ta bao char kway tiao back home for dinner. Happily munching away and watching TV, then suddenly, char kway tiao turned crispy. Crispy Char Kway Tiao? That's new!!! And when I looked down to see to see HALF a roach in my food... the other half was in my mouth! *pui* You see how they cook Char Kway Tiao and you'll know why the roach ended up in two pieces.
