An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

They were mostly hiding under the door seal.
I’m not a quitter tho. I washed it with bleach then doused it with ortho bug killer and left it in the sun for a few days.
It works great btw
Careful, those were certainly German Cockroaches and they like to get in little cracks and crevices especially near heat sources. Look inside the mechanical section and make sure you're not installing an infestation in your shop. Make sure there is no food/grease nearby to sustain them and be ready to deploy countermeasures if needed.
OMG! I moved into a place with German cockroaches and the sort story is I lost the battle and I now have slight PTSD about cockroaches. Careful.
Yep. Lived above a restaurant so I wasn't getting rid of them. All the caulking, glue traps, diatomaceous earth and poison I could afford wouldn't get rid of them. It's been two years and I still think I see them when something moves at the corner of my vision. I have nightmares about turning on the kitchen light.
Yep that's sound familiar. We need to firm a support group. 😂 😆 😢😭
Im pretty sure I poisoned the shit out of them. Every crevice top and bottom.
I'd double tap it: add a lot of bait and trap stations too, and set it up and run it a good long while without food in it. Sealed beverage bottles/cans are fine.
Just set a reminder for a week, 2 weeks, 3 weeks and a month, to check traps and refresh if necessary. Then add food if it's all clear.
Advion gel will wipe them out in a few days and it will remain active long enough to catch hatchlings.
