1000 roaches
Legally speaking, itโs a lot easier to kill roaches than a person
Iโll take the person. I lived with roaches in the past. Were impossible to get rid of and would keep destroying stuff including electronics. Not to mention the SOUND at night. Those 1000 roaches will also rapidly multiply to be way more.
Iโm glad to be out of that place. In the person case I am sure I could either reason with them (If theyโre living in my attic out if necessity) or have the authorities involved (If theyโre a danger to me).
An easier (but more time consuming way) to get rid of roaches is with bait, not spray. Use spray only in areas you absolutely donโt want them to touch, because they know itโs bad and just avoid it. Use little amounts of bait everywhere else. Then you wait, and wait, and slowly they die and donโt come back.
Tried that. The issue is when the neighborhood is infested. They just come back again and again. Im glad to be out of that hell.
