Unwelcome apartmentmates

Last night, at approximately 4am, I made a discovery. Lying on the couch, drowsy, waiting for my laundry to finish, I heard a strange skittering noise. I bolted upright as a small shadow darted under the table. Instinctively I pulled my feet up where I could see them.

It was a pair of cockroaches. Sweet. I'd say they were pretty healthy, based on their size. Each roach's torso was approximately the size of a milano cookie.

I squashed one as the other skittered away, then spent the next hour scrubbing down the floors and taking all the potentially roach-attracting trash and debris outside to the dumpster.

If I see another, I'll take its picture next to some measuring apparatus so you can see what I have to deal with.
