I have 450 sq ft that’s on the ground floor. Like almost 0 elevation at all from street level. 100 year old building. I live a 10 minutes walk away from the Pacific Coast, SF climate
Every time I wake up and go to the bathroom, I see 2-5 insects in it. 1-2 are cockroaches, rest are some other small thing. Flies maybe? Always see some cockroach droppings on sink counter that I have to spray and wipe down
Every time I leave a room dark for a few hours and turn on the lights, I always see 1-3 insects
During the day with lights on, I notice 1-4 insects per hour in various places excluding tiny fruit flies. Those I probably see like 5 times a day
Problem has been getting worse since I’ve moved in but this is also the first summer I’ve lived through in this place
And if I need pest control, how much work is it to have them come in? Should I just move apartments if I need them?
I have, can’t find anything at all
Have sprayed every inch of all my bed stuff with isopropyl multiple times too
I’d check periodically
Do not spray bed bugs. A lot of that stuff won’t actually kill them and just causes them to move somewhere else temporarily. They can jump several feet. You’ll want an exterminator to deal with the infestation properly, along with some other steps to deal with them.
The old school method was to pour boiling water over your mattress, but honestly you’re better off slashing it open and have it taken to a dump.
