I remember watching that Animal Planet (?) show called Infested some years back. They talked about a German cockroach (the tiny ones) infestation that was so bad that if they left an apple or something out the roaches would eat it by morning. It was so bad that they opened up the refrigerator and found it crawling with roaches. Turns out one of their neighbors was a fucking slob and it was against his religion to kill anything, including pests so he refused the exterminators whenever they would come through the building

That's one reason why I cover up my toothbrush with a cap and take it with me to my bedroom, because roaches like to drink the moisture off of toothbrushes. That episode was nightmare fuel and made me change up how I did things. I use barrier protection often, I might get a large tree roach every now and then because of the giant oak trees in my yard but they're usually dead by the time I find them.
