Exterminator Question!

[tramp]

Last night I had the battle of the roach in my townhouse last night. I got up to get a drink of water and there on the cieling of my kitchen was a nasty roach!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, it was not as big as the ones I used to get in Florida, those suckers were as big as your hand, but he had to die anyway. I sprayed him with some Raid and after he fell to the floor I snuffed out his remaining life with one black stiletto heel.

Now I need to call an exterminator because roaches cannot live in my house.

How much is this going to cost me?

Is this something a landlord should pay for?

Yeah, spellcheck...

Yes, your landlord should pay for it, call him and let him know. But what I really wanted to say was, black stiletto heels? and named tramp? How YOU doing?

'Round these parts (where we have giant flying roaches that will carry off the young 'uns...), you can get a one time pest control treatment for about $50. Usually the companies run coupons in the papers. I would go ahead and pay for the one time treatment and simply send the receipt to the landlord/lady with a deduction off your next rent check. (Clearing that with said landlord/lady beforehand).

Secondly, I highly recommend steel-toed Doc Martens for future impromptu roach battles!

Ugh, I just called my landlord and he told me that they only pay for extermination for termites... Jerks...

I disagree about the Doc Martens, the heel of the stiletto went right through the little bugger. It made a disgusting,wonderful sound.
