Do you know where the roach came from. If you're paranoid, then you should hire an exterminator.

Yeh, I love finding roaches around the house... like little beautiful presents from the roach fairies.

Find a clip... some tweezers work well... light her up and throw on some 70's disco! Yha!

i don't know where it came from, my window is open, but it has a screen.

I guess its time to clean my room

it might have been like a scout roach, looking for food for its buddies. I just don't want them to crawl into my ears/nose and lay eggs

Get a couple of house spiders then i guess. If they are that big then they must be eating all the crumbs in your bed or something. Maybe you should clean up more often?

If I think there is an insect in the house, I will sleep (lightly) with the light on. If I see an insect I will scream LOUDLY until someone, anyone, comes to remove it. :eek::eek::eek:

How did the roach get so big? Bah enough with details just call Orkin Man! ;) We used to have a problem with roaches here in da hood but then we went out and got those Roach spray canisters that you push the button and then leave it sitting vertically on top of something, and the vapor mist blows upward and forcing all the bugs to come from there hiding spots and DIE!!!!

Do this about twice a month every 1st and 31st of the month and they will be gone. The Canisters only cost about 10 dollars for a 6 pack. Be warned those sprays are very very very powerful. I don't even think your supposed to sit in the house with it untill the 45minutes is up. Anyways i'll get a link for it

EDit: here is the link to the Stuff we used to get rid of a serious roach problem http://www.anisafety.com/store/safety/newitem.asp?DEPARTMENT_ID=5508&amp;ITEM_ID=26658&amp;JANITORIAL=1

We didn't pay that much for ours but i guess it may vary in your area. Last time we used this stuff was like 2 years ago and we haven't seen a roach since then.
