    What’s worse is the ones that don’t scatter when you turn on the lights. Just sit there waiting for you to get out of their territory.

      When I lived down in Houston I made the disturbing discovery that cockroaches in the south of the us are much much larger than the frozen north.

      I also learned that they can fly (Texas has FOUR flying varieties), and will in fact fly right in your balcony door if you leave it cracked for the cat and have a light on inside… they also don’t care about you.

      With a phobia of roaches, let’s just say Texas wasn’t the right state for me…
