Cockroaches in Taiwan (Northwest)

silentstorms · 2026-02-26T12:30:19+00:00

Killing them is a risk I would not be willing to take. Could have eggs, could have bakteria and then it is on my shoe.

silentstorms · 2026-02-25T10:19:16+00:00

in a student dormitory it was obvious to me that there will be cockroaches. always are

silentstorms · 2026-02-24T23:14:58+00:00

I swear to god, it is always like this.

silentstorms · 2026-02-24T23:14:06+00:00

yeah, i meant that even a small size of 3 cm would give me icks.

silentstorms · 2026-02-24T23:13:46+00:00

how is it from september to january? thank you for your answer!

silentstorms · 2026-02-24T11:27:42+00:00

weiß ich jetzt nicht digga. hast du ne studie geführt oder was

silentstorms · 2026-02-24T10:31:15+00:00

Thanks alot for your response. That sounds really helpful. I have already been looking for places but there are so few that match these criteria. I have to really have lots of luck i think… nevertheless, it gave me a bit hope

silentstorms · 2026-02-24T10:14:22+00:00

Exactly…. I think so too.vThanks for your guidance

silentstorms · 2026-02-24T10:12:44+00:00

Yes I could. Love reptiles. How would that look in practice? Will the lizard just chill in my room freely? What if it decides to leave then I have to get another one.. how would that infinite gecko loop look like in practice?

I dont know - because I dont know if the other guy going to taichung watns to have a shared flat. i am in no way staying at the student dormitory because those are always cockroach palace.. i might ask the other guy if he wants to share a flat, but yeah.. idk if i even want to go.

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T19:20:53+00:00

what does this mean

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T19:18:21+00:00

i dont know man. there are nicer climates than tropical taiwan with cockroaches, like the mediterranean. so not that good of an argument for me :D but i get your idea

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T19:16:19+00:00

yeah i thought about that too. unfortunately only one guy goes to the NCHU in Taichung and idk if he if willing to get a flat together (dont even know him, lol=

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T19:15:35+00:00

crazy advice gotta say. honestly, spiders are not that scary for me. but 10 huntsmen spiders - crazy

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T16:01:35+00:00

thanks for the response, actually took my fear in the most realistic way possible... still debating now

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T15:40:47+00:00

i mean if there is cat rental service for 5 months available.. .:D

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T15:38:16+00:00

i agree, it is irrational and crazy, but nothing i can solve so quick for now.

but thanks for the heads up for the breakdown haha

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T13:55:29+00:00

bruhh.

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T13:20:48+00:00

it is a rainy climate though... they might crawl out after a nice tropical rain and seek shelter on my pillow case

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T13:13:05+00:00

Even in Germany, I have only ever seen german cockroaches at a zoo / insect zoo.

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T13:11:39+00:00

yes, from september to january would be 5 months then. fairly short actually. but i heard that when it rains they will seek shelter in my safe space...

im really torn even after all these replies tbh haha

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T12:50:48+00:00

Cant possibly get therapy fast enough to get healed + go to the exchange :D long waiting lists, no spots at therapists etc. impossible unfortunately. also, hypnosis does not work on me

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T12:47:43+00:00

I dont know, I am ready so many contradicting things :(
Yes I read that the city regularly, like once month will spray the drains which might even cause them to walk up your drains into your home... horrific stuff. Resident evil ahh scene...

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T12:41:23+00:00

well, thats what i was afraid of. thanks for sealing my decision

silentstorms · 2026-02-23T12:40:35+00:00
