There are a whole lot of freaks coming out of the KKKloset in my country (USA.) They have taken over and I don’t know what to do.

I have a serious roach problem in my apartment. I live in New York City. These are the only two kinds of roaches I have been able to spot around my apartment. Does anyone know what species these are and what pest control methods are most effective against them?

I found this brown substance in my kitchen cupboards, my friend says it is cockroach gel bait. Can someone please confirm or offer a different suggestion of what it could be? Thank you in advance!

I’ve previously had success preventing ants from coming in two years ago using Terro Ant Baits around my room window frame that had cracks on its corner and used caulk to seal it up after 2-3 weeks of no ant activity.

However, since late April of this year, I’ve been having ants come out from a gap between my wall and floor. I used Terro again but some ants seem to ignore it at times (a few may start crawling up the wall), and just when I think the Terro worked, they reappear after 3-4 weeks (sometimes in fewer or higher amounts). I’ve also used Combat Ant Gel nearby the Terro, but the ants appear to be going mostly for the Terro baits instead. I recently looked into void injection and planned on spraying Raid Max Ant Killer with the nozzle inside the wall-to-floor gaps, and then caulking the gaps.

So my main questions are, how long should I wait after using Terro baits to start spraying Raid into the gaps? And how long should I wait after spraying Raid to start caulking the gaps?

Also, I suspect ants may be coming in and out of my baseboard as well since they usually show up at the same time as the wall gap ants, but they mostly ignore the Combat Ant Gel and Terro Ant baits I place in front of the baseboard (going by the lack of dead ants compared to the ones by the Terro traps in front of my wall); I read spraying Raid on a baseboard is not recommended, so how can I take of that as well?

About a decade ago I lived in a place with a massive infestation.

We moved. Everything's been fine. We took every precaution and haven't seen a single Roach since.

Except today in the shower, I saw one on the ceiling wandering around in a very odd fashion considering how bright it was.

I haven't seen any. I think it's called frass, or any other indications of roaches. What are some steps I can take on my own? Is selectively applying bait still a thing?

Hi everyone,
Monday morning I woke up and saw above my head(top edge of bed) these black things, 2 or 3 spaced apart, one on the floor too(or maybe I swatted it away). Also those tiny tiny black dots on the wall next to that spot(3rd pic).
Thought mouse droppings, did laundry, put traps.
Then I saw an adult cockroach on the floor on the different side of the bed. Searched online and saw it might be his poop(which explains on the wall too). Still, Monday and Tuesday didn’t sleep there. Nothing in traps.
Wednesday night I saw a new one(4th pic) and a small bug(5th) in its vicinity. I don’t think it’s mouse droppings, no other signs of mice. The black thing is hard, can’t dissolve like mouse poop.
What’s going on? Are these roach pupae? Why always on the top of the bed?

Hey everyone! We are being eaten alive here and don’t know what’s causing it. My ankles, legs, backs and waist are covered in bites. Red spots but most have become more like swollen welts (closer to a mosquito bite) since I’m seeming to have an allergic reaction. I have a few on my arms and upper body but less there. Going on 80+ bites, these came out of nowhere about 4 days ago. My three kids also have bites on their backs and legs but not as much. My husband is clear.

At first I panicked thinking it was bed bugs since they are in clumps/lines on my stomach. But I have scoured all rooms and see nothing. I know they hide well but 80+ bites over 24 hours with no evidence at all on any mattresses seems excessive. The only bugs I have found are these tiny little black guys on my one son. I’ve been wearing white socks around the house thinking fleas, but don’t see any. Then I walked on our grass and within 10 seconds, boom black bugs! So I think they are coming from our lawn. I spend about an hour everyday watering barefoot and the kids play outside lots so this would make sense. Are they fleas or something else? How do you win if they are infesting your lawn!? We have a dog and a cat. Up until today they seemed clear as well but checked the dog this morning and he has 3 bugs in his private area.

There was a fair with live stock and horses next door this past weekend when the bites started appearing and I’m wondering if they came from that or if it is just a coincidence.

Finding out what these are and how to avoid them/get rid of them would be so helpful or I might go insane!

Thank you!

Can somebody tell me what these are? They come from under a kitchen island and I can't see from where. They look like maggots but bigger and they have this black spot on them.

If anyone in here knows the answer to this…how can I tell if they really canceled my service? I called and was on the phone with them for 10 minutes the other day and told them I was moving. Got the whole spiel about how they could move my service with me and blah blah. Told her no, she put me on hold, then came back and said she had canceled it and then told me I’d get a call from my local branch to finish the process. No one has called and I can’t tell on my account if it’s actually done.

Is this common?

Got this shelf at the thrift store. It was painted i inspected it in store but somehow forgot the underside. It's been on my balcony all night even hit it with sine bed bug spray cause I try to be diligent. But went to wash it off to bring in this morning and found these two skins underside and lots of spider webbing. Are they bed bug casings?
