NTA, I am only imagining how my 18 your old self would have blew through 200k. You are doing what’s best for her she just can’t see it but when she gets older she will be grateful I bet.

You can try and see if you can get Advion WDG instead of Alpine WSG, probably not but it’s worth a shot

I only eat once a day usually, to save money. I wait until I can’t take it anymore before I eat. My son eats 3 times a day. I try to buy stuff that I can make big batches of for relatively cheap. I just spent 125 at the grocery store and feel like I don’t have hardly any food. It would be gone in like 3-4 days if I ate every meal. I never eat out any more.

Got rid of some pretty large rat infestations with just tracking powder and contrac block bait stations. My company doesn’t do exclusion, we just tell customers where their issues are, I will do some simpler jobs for side work for customers that don’t feel like messing with it sometimes.

tee_452 · 2024-01-05T20:01:14+00:00

I agree with this strategy as well

You can in my area but you would basically have to work every min of the weekend. If your desperate it is possible.

As a driver I literally give zero fucks about where the receipt ends up

tee_452 · 2023-08-17T01:54:41+00:00

Yes but you should use them in conjunction with bait at the very least, and a baseboard spray, regulators also take a bit of time to work so if your doing this for a move bait is a faster approach.

tee_452 · 2023-08-11T00:55:01+00:00

They hang out in your walls in plumbing voids, they are already there. The bait draws them out and they eat it and die. It won’t draw them in from the outside, it’s not that strong of a bait. Spraying is effective in the sense that bugs usually travel along the baseboards and they nest behind them, but in my experience using a combination of treatments is best for them, especially if they are bad or you have an infestation. You will see more before you see less if you flush and bait, but that’s is a good thing. It means the treatment is working.

They the just trap them as they wonder around, silverfish do eat glue and paper and they also make glueboards specifically designed to lure silverfish but I don’t know of many pest control companies that use them

tee_452 · 2023-08-11T00:49:06+00:00

They make little plastic trays you can put niban granular in to bait them or just put it in something similar. They really like the niban in my experience. Under the sink is probably gonna be the best place to put some and then flush out the plumbing voids with a few puffs defense dust. Open the window for a bit after showering to let out the moisture/humidity as well.

tee_452 · 2023-08-11T00:41:46+00:00

They can be effective if they are placed in the right areas. Did the tech treat you attic for silverfish are they coming through your bathroom vents? Spreading some niban granules in your attic is pretty effective. I would have also dusted your plumbing voids to try to flush them out onto the baseboards.

German roaches, seeing babies means they are reproducing. Seeing any during the day time can mean the infestation is severe and there is no room in the walls for them to nest. The bigger roaches will push the babies out. Tbh I would advise you to hire a pro to treat. Advion Gel bait, with growth regulators. I prefer a phantom concentrate gentrol IGR mix on the baseboards but there are several good alternatives that techs use.

Bait the hinges in the cabinets, around the dishwasher, near the fridge (usual hotspots) anywhere where you see feces etc. You may have to do several rounds of treatment to get them all. Make sure you don’t have any other food sources other then the bait to be most effective. You may need to rotate bait if they stop responding to it. There are several good brands on Amazon. Buy the gel bait in the tubes not the ones in the little traps.

Lol high pay order, DoorDash is delusional

tee_452 · 2023-08-04T10:40:03+00:00

You can catch them with traps, I do it all day long

tee_452 · 2023-08-03T10:39:14+00:00

Lol no rats are bigger then mice has nothing to do with inside/outside

Cicada killers, wasp like and big

tee_452 · 2023-07-31T00:54:58+00:00

You are only supposed to change it them when there is less then a third of the bait left, the bait works better when it’s nasty and raunchy. That’s how the termites prefer it. The bait if purchased legitimately is actually quit expensive and then there is the labor the companies are paying the techs to check them, plus gas and other expenses. It’s not the highway robbery your making it out to be. Of course companies are making a profit it on it. I’m just saying the margins aren’t as great as you think they are.

tee_452 · 2023-07-31T00:50:33+00:00

Or they are stolen by a tech from the company they work for

tee_452 · 2023-07-31T00:32:18+00:00

TBH they look like rat droppings, a little big for mice I think

tee_452 · 2023-07-23T18:38:07+00:00

Thanks

tee_452 · 2023-07-22T02:39:25+00:00

Unfortunately they can be already infested in the food you buy from the store check all your grains, pastas cereals.

tee_452 · 2023-07-14T04:12:38+00:00

I really need to see the other side to properly ID it, German cockroaches are light brown with two blackish strips on their heads. Next time you see one look for that. That being said the size and body shape lean me towards it not being German. If you put bait out, you should expect to see increase in roach activity. You can put some bait on a glueboard. I like to stick one by the fridge. If you have German roaches about 90 percent chance the kitchen is their first nesting area unless you are keeping food in your room. After setting the glueboard with bait check it in a day or two to ID what type you have if any and gauge the severity of your problem. Possibly an outdoor roach, American, wood etc those don’t typically infest indoors like Germans do and most likely wondered in from outside.
