Roaches can come in through vegetables you bring home from the market, especially radishes. They hide in the muddy leaves of radishes. That is why when I go and buy fresh produce, I look real good in between the leaves. They also come in your grocery bags.

A friend of mine had moved into a apartment and it had roaches, she put that borax powder (poisonous) all along the wall seams and corners, this way the roaches get it on their feet and they carry it back to their nest. This is suppose to kill them quickly, but be careful that you don't have pets around when you do this and clean your plates, glasses before you use them.


Oh God, one more issue I never thought of, thats so gross! Shocked


Yeah, check your radishes.


Radishes give you frequent, stinky burps. Thus, no radishes for me unless I am alone (which never happens) and so I do not eat them. And as a result I have no roaches.


Maaaarkus, I don't get stinky burps from radishes...I think it is just you. You know there are things you can take to keep you from doing that. Like Beano!

Oh, no my KY counterpart, radishes, turnips WILL give anyone very stinky breath. Like somebody died in your stomach and is still rotting in it.

Stop blaming the radishes. It is you burping up all the brewers yeast and barley hops.

You must have digestive problems then, because you really should not be doing a whole hell of a lot of burping with something like that. Why dont you go get some digestive enzymes?

Actually this is a true story. When I was a kid our family had a dacha which most russians back then had. We grew radishes, of course.

Me and my brother would eat lots of radishes and then burp at anyone just to annoy them.

That's how I know that they stink.

Not sure about that, because then Ken would keep talking non-stop about the benefits of smoking pot. But look what it has done to his personality!

So, I am not sure...
