Found in dining room. Thanks!

They fly too!

Hi!

As the title says I have a rat living in my washing machine since last Friday. I don't know where, I already took off the back panel, but can't see it.

First I tried to trap it into a bucket, by building a ramp, but it ate all the food and climbed out. Then I bought traps (both mouse and rat) but it ignored them. Then I placed down cardboard with glue around the machine. Tonight I heard screeching, went inside the bathroom and there it was, a brown rat, with the gluey cardboard all around the place. We had a half hour standoff when I first tried to catch it, then after losing my patience, just trying to kill it without destroying the tiles in the bathroom. Obviously I lost the fight and it escaped back to the machine.

I already had a pest control guy come and since he believed that it must be a mouse he placed a couple of those black mouse poison boxes down, which obviously won't do anything since the rat won't even fit inside.

My question is how do I get rid of it as fast as possible without it dying and rotting inside my washing machine? Is there anything besides food that would make it leave? I was thinking of sealing the holes and filling it with smoke, would it try to escape? I can also start disassembling the machine, but I'd prefer not having a terrified rat jump on my face. If I call pest control, will they be able to get it out?

I am quite done with this thing shitting and pissing around our only bathroom. I take literally any advice.

We have mice. The pest control guy came out and gave us an estimate for general pest control and putting out bait boxes for the mice. I expressed to him that my cats eat rodents (actually eat, not just play with or kill and leave it) and my concern with poison is that they’ll eat a mouse that has poison in its system. The man told me that poison they use is counteracted by vitamin K and that since vitamin K is in cat food, they would basically be counteracting it when they eat their food. He didn’t give me the poison’s name. Is there any truth to this?

Multiple large satellite hills. Tons of flying ants. Can be see in the air over the backyard. Where to even start and what products to use?

We live in the northeast USA and we live an older apartment building. We’ve been living here for around a year and we never had a pest problem, we found this dude this morning and want to know what species this is so we can properly deal with them (found him high on our bedroom wall)

One got trapped in a fruit fly trap and the second one was found dead on the floor. 4 days apart. I had DE (food grade) on the baseboards last week from Monday through Thursday pre-flea treatment which happened on Friday.

New apartment I moved to 2 weeks ago.

Hello everyone, I found that in my kitchen, it is roughly 2-3 mm long. Unfortunately I am also encountering cockroaches from time to time. I was wondering if one of them did lay its egg there or if it would be something else.

Thank you in advance for your help and have a nice evening

I rent a split duplex and the neghibors in the other half had a exterminator come by. A week or so later I was having my morning coffee and saw a weird looking bug crawling on my kitchen door. Ignorantly. I squished it and after, I realized I should have IDed it first. Looking online, I belive it was a roach with an egg sac and i was fairly sure a german roach.

We cleaned the kitchen. Saw no other bugs or signs of rosches and went about my business. About a week later. Saw another one, no egg. We told the landlord. Landlord confirmed thr other half of duplex was treated and we may see stragglers. Gee thanks for the warning, I would have put stuff out prior. We then purchased bait and DE. Placed bait under kitchen appliances and one in the laundry room.

We've seen exactly one bug at a time every 5-7 days on the same wall as the door. Making sure to go to bed when a dry sink. No food out. Ive even put peppermint oil down the drain each night just incase thats an entry point. This weekend we found two inside the keurig. Trashed it and deep cleaned the kitchen again. No other bugs or signs found. We even took over the outlet covers and sprayed DE in them. Now we are actively looking for them. I found one in my nightly checks last night. We also got glue traps yesterday. Placed three around the kitchen. One trap caught a roach (under the stove, against the same wall).

Is it fair to say at this point that its not stragglers? We told the landlord again when we trashed the keurig. He's not a good landlord mind you, he has his mkments and then will ghost for half a year. Moving isnt an option, rent prices are insane. I dont know the best course forward. There are kids and cats in the home.

Found this detestable creature crawling on the blanket I was laying in. Now what? Looked around and didn’t see anymore or any signs of anymore. Neither me nor my husband have been bitten and don’t see any bites on our ferrets.

Is this a German cockroach? Should I be concerned? I’ve checked around the house and this is the only one I’ve found but I know it’s never only one

Location: Zevo trap located in bedroom in mobile Alabama

I have not spotted any droppings or any other bugs that look similar.

Hi everyone!

Just curious as to what animal these droppings belong to. I live in south Texas and I mainly see them on either side of the garage door. Apologies if the pictures are bad, I can take more if needed.

Just had a mouse run into the bathroom while I was on the toilet. I screamed and it ran off. I’m in a studio flat unfortunately so the only other door I can close is the kitchen. I’ve left it open incase the mouse is hiding and waiting for me to sleep before it goes back there. I’m hoping that’s how it got in. It’s 1am in London and I’m too scared to look for the mouse.

I last had mice in April 2024 and there was a gap under the sink near the taps. I scrubbed the kitchen when it was daytime and made sure the mice were gone that time put wire wool down in the gaps there. I also have a noise machine thing that they don’t like as well permanently plugged into the wall (I haven’t unplugged it for 2 and a half years).

I’m in London in the UK and it’s cold tonight compared to the past three months. I got out of bed to close the window and put on a fleece top.

I’m hoping the mouse came in through the kitchen cause it was cold.

Please help. It seems to be following me. First into the bathroom and now into the bedroom area. Is that because I have the light on. Could it be just looking for a way out? Is it trying to attack me. I’m not sure what to do to stop it from following me.

I’m trying to figure out if this is an American /german cockroach or a cricket AI is all over the place lol

Located in Texas, USA

We’ve found these in the past few days in our kitchen, near windows. 4-5 per day.

My neighbor has a chicken coop literally right beside my bbq but on the other side of the fence. We are having a lot of flies on our side. It’s disgusting it’s hard to enjoy our backyard now. What can I do I spray to get these flies away.

Massive apologies for the poor quality of these photos. My wife took these before killing it. Is this a bed bug? We had bed bugs 6 weeks ago before moving. We’re also dealing with a German cockroach infestation in the new place.

The security deposit is refundable but I have not been able to look at the apartment yet. I know that pest control is working on the infestation but I don’t know exactly what the infestation is. I’m thinking German roaches. The apartment manager said I can tour as soon as it is ready in a week or two. Is that long enough to actually get rid of the infestation? If not should, what should I look for when doing my tour to see if there is still an infestation? Lastly, if I see signs of an infestation could I still move in and use boric acid as well as gel bait? I know this sounds crazy but the apartment is really cheap and in an area I want to live in. Thanks

Located in NJ. Found this in my room, it was quite solid and hard to breakup

Found this bug when I opened the door. What bug is it? I’m spiraling. Located in Los Angeles.

I live in a students dorm, my room is 20 square meters and I have silverfishes on the walls and floors. I vacuum every 3 days and I also change the air a lot besides using traps since months and spray them. The problem is that this room has a lot of open spots in the walls near the ceiling and once they are in your room they don't go away. The dorm doesn't care. Is a dehumidifier my only hope? what do you think about COMFEE Dehumidifier 12 litres/day. Please let me know, I'm losing my mind they are disgusting.
