A couple of weeks ago in Cyprus, while on a petsit, I had to call the pest control guy out as one bathroom was 'breeding' cockroaches. He reckoned they came up mainly through the drain system - toilet, sinks, shower etc. And indeed, when he lifted the covers off the drains outside, to spray, it w...

...as like an Indiana Jones movie... Hundreds and hundreds of cockroaches swarming inside. I couldn't even bear to look, it freaked me out! He said he would need to come back to spray after 4 weeks as the eggs are on a 4-week cycle (or something to that effect).

Since religiously ensuring that the plugs are in the sinks and baths etc. we've only seen a couple in the last month or so and killed them with Yuki spray. I think they just walk in through the front door or possibly glide down through the ceiling vent in the utility room roof. Not really sure they bite, that's the Mozzies job.
