  3 0 Yes. They live everywhere.

  0 0 I've never seen one, but I'm sure they are around. I know some local restaurant/bars that have reputations for having roaches. But they certainly don't live here in the same numbers or vigor that they do in other parts of the world. For instance, in Central Texas cockroaches are huge critters with wings, and they are everywhere. And they suck your blood. Ok, I made that last part up. But vampire roaches could hardly be more scary than the 3" long monsters that will fly at your face in Austin. kitschnsync answered in Pest Control/Weeds about 1 year ago | Report 1 comment by Lee… 0 0 Those may certainly be scarier, but I don't think the tropical flying roaches are the same kind of infestation/pestilence that the little black german cockroaches are. I had some of those big red "waterbug" (aka american cockroaches) in my apartment building in Chicago - they were disturbing as hell, but they weren't exactly shitting all over the kitchen the way the german cockroaches do: they just live in places with old and worn out pipes. So, while the small ones may not seem as horrific, they're actually the worst kind to have.

  0 0 Yes, they do. They're generally much smaller here than in other locations, though. I lived in an apartment building in Portland that was infested with cockroaches. Even though they were small (about .75 inches), it was still gross. I don't know how or why, but they got into my microwave - you could see them crawling in front of the clock. I threw that microwave out. e.strange answered in Pest Control/Weeds about 1 year ago | Report 1 comment by asteria… 0 0 Yeah, the building I live in got infested a couple of years ago and the pest control people told me they love microwaves and refrigerators - it's slightly warmer on the inside I guess. You were smart to toss that microwave. I've also seen a roach zoom in and out of the holes in an outlet - really freaky in a dimly-lit room at night. Fortunately after about a year of regular pest control with some toxic shit the building seems roach-free. asteria commented about 1 year ago | Report Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.

  0 0 Yes, but they're not as common and they don't get as large. I've only actually encountered them a handful of times here - it's very different from a warmer, more humid climate where the sonsabitches pretty much get big enough to steal your car.

  0 0 Yes! In just the same places they live in other regions (urban areas heavy on the food service), and e. is right: they are MUCH smaller than their mutant NYC cousins. More like wee beetles here. Pioneer Square restaurants have had them for ages (eww/ick), one of the reasons I often hesitate to confirm lunch dates made in that area...

  0 0 The first apartment I rented in Seattle had them. Not many, thank god, but I'd see them scurry into the sink drain at night when I turned on the light.
