JAIL BREAK! Roach on the run!

cable2001 Dec 10, 2004 10:31 AM

Well, it happened. I'm not sure how, and I'm not sure if it was an isolated incident.

Yesterday, Logan (my puppy) couldn't hold it until I got home and pooped in his cage. It is easy to clean because the plastic tray in the bottom slides right out. I slid it out, and one of my cockroaches was hiding under it!

I quickly caught him, and Amon was kind enough to dispose of the little bugger for me. The question is, was this just a random one that got out, or do I have a security breach and will soon be greated by a breesing colony in my house?

I think getting roaches was a very bad idea.

Buying roaches doesn't sound like to bad an idea - better for the lizards, easier to care for and breed...in your house.

I hope it doesn't turn into a real problem.
