Old friend who had left no trace online and moved around Europe too quickly to keep up with has resurfaced back in Prague! And has kids! Man, I could tell her kids tales....she was quite the wild child. When I briefly lived with her, I never knew who I'd find sleeping in the tub or on our bedroom floor. Or if the sink would still be on the wall.

(maybe I can get her to get the spinach burger recipe from the Radost cook...)

Also, I have a deck estimate guy coming saturday. And blind measuring tomorrow, though they haven't called with a time, which is annoying.

Diatomaceous earth. I actually haven't seen any new dead roaches since the weekend. I'm hoping they all died in their lairs.

eta: I feel your pain. I hate/fear the things, one of my few bug issues. I knew moving into the city proper would mean them, but uhg.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have to say, I really, really don't miss the roaches. There's lots of things I miss about the South, but flinching every time I walk into my garage at night? Not one of them.

I was a little surprised we have NM size roaches up here in B'more. But I shouldn't have been, it makes sense given the population density and housing stock. I just didn't have them in the more suburban area I lived (I saw the little ones, but those don't freak me out.)

Blinds between 10:30 and 11:30.

Waterbugs=roaches?? I google waterbugs and find some truly horrifying nonstompable pictures of nightmares.

waterbugs are the big black roaches. huh, and now by checking out the fabulous what's that bug, I see they are American roaches, so now I wonder, what are the smaller lighter brown things?

eta - the same site answered my question - the smaller lighter ones are German cockroaches and much harder to get rid of.

If buying some of the diawhatever earth, how much to treat a full apt - say 950 sq ft? 1lb? 5 lb?
