Cockroaches

Can cockroaches live in the fridge?

German cockroach nest in the refrigerator’s warm compressor area, cardboard backing, and dirty gaskets. They are not living in the milk. Pull the fridge, vacuum the dust, bait the cracks, and fix the leak that keeps the floor wet.

The kickplate is the room

If you only bait the pantry, you miss the appliance. Unplug, pull, clean, bait, and put monitors at the rear legs. That one move beats a month of baseboard spray.
