Epidemic of cockroaches in Ireland

The Oriental cockroach - This the one, which has invaded my house!

Hi, Im living on a new house build site on the border of Laios/ Tipp . There are several new houses near me on what was farm land. So I cant blame foreigners bringing in exotic corn or rices for what is an epidemic of cockroaches in these fields! However corn was planted in this field before I bought the site! My house is not yet completed but Im living in a newly converted garage until my house is finished! Cockroaches are only active in temperatures above 14 centigrade (I think thats the temperature!) They're inactive in winter UNLESS they have already set up in your house the previous summer! Last summer I lived a nightmare!

Girls will get nightmares about this! Ill tell you!

When I built the converted garage from new in 2006, I left a small gap between the waist pipe and the wall cavity, which means that cockroaches got in from the foundations up the cavity, in through the waist pipe gap and into my kitchen under the sink! My kitchen/ come bedsit type room , became a target for cockroaches through 2007. Do you know that cockroaches make a calling noise, which sounds like a corncrake call from a distance! When I first heard this noise during darkness I genuinely thought it was a corncrake calling outside in the nearby fields! In the following days and weeks I began to notice numerous black beetles on the floor of my living room/kitchen. You see, I just thought these were ordinary harmless black beetles, like stag beetles etc. They are hamless and dont carry disease , unlike cockroaches! They are dangerous to your health! I began killing dozens of these "beetles" until it finally dawned on me, these were not ordinary black beetles! It got so bad that I woke in in the morning and cockroaches were crawling up my walls near my bed; some I noticed trying to get onto my food table and then I started to get frantic! I became terrified of these disgusting creatures! One night while half sleeping in bed , I felt something drop from the curtains above my head above my bed, onto my face! I woke up in terror , switched on the light, and it was one of these bastards and I killed it as if my life was in danger! Another night I woke up to hear a constant scraping like noise. I put the light on and another of these cunts was trying to climb up the metal walls of my sink! That was the last straw! Next morning I started to move all the furniture and bed out of my kitchen/living room. I looked in every corner and nook under my sink and realised that most cockroaches I found were under or around my sink! I realised these bastards were getting in from outside, so I examed every possible entry into the room. I finally noticed the gap between the sink waist pipe and wall cavity. I got plastic sealer from a window seal gun and pumped the mastic into the gap and then painted over the gap! The cockroaches became fewer in numbers as I killed them off and 2007 ended cockroach free! However, 2008 saw the return of the invaders! Not in large numbers but a steady stream of single or two attackers once a night over this wet summer, with the warm and wet temperatures, which is ideal for these cunts to thrive! Something else I have discovered! Has anyone seen the film Jerimiah Johnson? That was the story of a man who withdrew to the wilderness of the Rocky Mountains, where he lived alone in the wildreness amongst the bears and wolves! He made enemies of local indians when he inadvertantly desecrated the indian burial grounds! Over the coming years , individual indians , alone, (warriors) came to kill Johnson but he killed them all!

Im the new Jerimiah Johnson! Theyve been coming individually every night during this summer! Until recently I wondered how they could get in because I sealed up every opening I could think of! Then one night I heard a sound I had noticed many times before whilst I slept in bed! It was like the sound of a tiny pebble falling onto my floor which is covered in lino! Then just last week it dawned on me, they are getting in through my open window, which I need to keep open for oxygen. I jumped out of bed and there under the window against the wall was one of the black bastards! I killed him as if he was a contagion! So I know how they are getting in but I cant close the window at night because I need fresh air! So I had a delema! I again looked under the sink for cockroaches and I killed everyone I saw! After I killed all cockroaches I went to bed thinking they were all dead! During the night I heard that sound again , craik , craik, coming from under the sink! I jumped up but no cockroach could I find. I went to bed again , a while later , craik , craik. from under the sink! I jumped up again but no cockroach could I find! I finally think I have figured out what is going on! There is a female or a queen cockroach in my room , which must have got in maybe in 2007 and is still here! The craik calling is the female calling the males and they come when they are called one after the other! Last night I found two in the morning just at the bottom where the door opens under the sink! They sat side by side and didnt move when datylight shone on them . They died where they stood! It has occured to me that they were sitting near or outside the females hiding place in some crack or crany at the bottom of the sink wooden frame! My mission now is to kill the queen/female! Im going to get insecticide and spray it into every crany I can find under the sink. Im gona kill this filthy pig!

NB: Cockroaches need water to survive, so if you have a problem with them, dry up all water in the infected area!
