roaches and move-backs

Your roach phobia must be genetic. I too am determinedly un-squeamish, but roaches make me wuzzy. Remember the little fake-log cabin I used to live in by Perry Lake? I am not proud to admit this, but we actually resorted to bug bombing that place. We left in the morning when we fumed the place, and when we came back the floor of the bathtub was covered in them. Apparently they hung around there for the moisture. But the thought of them up there lurking and scurrying around while I was having a shower.... we used alot less hot water after that. I'm glad there are no roaches in northern Minnesota. Or maybe those northern roaches are just really sneaky. Or well camouflaged. Who knew that was how to spell camouflaged? Thank you might spell checker.
