Big Black Cockroaches
Our 20-year-old brick and tiled place we liven in has big black (3.5cm) long coach roaches entering and I can’t find a way to get rid of them, other than the fly swotter. One even crawled onto my brow one night in bed and I was able to reach up quickly and kill it there right on my head. I held it there until it was dead in the mirror with the light on. I never leave food out overnight so as not to encourage them. They do seem to come in from our loo pipes and crawl freely after that. We kill around 3 per week on average. Does anyone here have any ideas on what I might do please, as I would like less of these guys in my life, and they are reputed to carry diseases?

Poll: Are domestic flights with Air NZ out of your budget?
A Tauranga man has filed a complaint with the Commerce Commission, claiming that due to dynamic pricing, it’s cheaper for him to fly to Los Angeles than to book a flight for his daughter from Tauranga to Wellington.
Do you think their pricing needs addressed to encourage more people to fly?
-
95.7% Yes, it's too expensive
-
3.8% No, it's reasonable

0.6% Other - I'll share below
