Comment | I used to get these when I lived on the ground floor in a tenement (I've also seen them in other people's flats higher up though and they seem pretty common). I blocked up all gaps I could find (they were crawling out of teeny gaps between the skirting and floor - they'll live in and move around flats in the gaps between walls and ceilings / floors etc). I then blasted them with Mr Muscle orange scented cleaner stuff (out of sheer panic, no science behind it but it actually did kill them!) if I saw one, or, on a more courageous day I would despatch of them with a bit of tissue and a booted foot as humanely and quickly as possible. Seemed to work. Hope this helps :) |
