I've lived here for years and had a few boxes still packed up from the move, mostly old books, pictures and some old electronics.
I popped open one and FARRRKKK it was straight out of a horror movie (CreepShow I, II, III, IV, V, !!!)
These huge roaches jumped out and ran faster than a formula-1 car (relative to size) into other hiding spots.
The books were covered in this like mouse poo or little round balls and dirt
But the books were ok! Like WTF!?

What do cockroaches do in these boxes!?

How to get rid of them!?

Cardboard is an absolute no no on a boat for that reason.

Ask Bear Grill. He knows how to peel and prepare them for food.

I skippered a couple of tourist overnight yachts at the Whitsundays. 2 of the 3 boats had cockroaches in plague proportions! A cockroach ended up in my overnight bag and was transferred back to my own livaboard yacht.......and guess what I started finding just weeks later! More cockroaches!

While playing in the backyard, Little Johnny kills a honeybee.
His father sees him killing the honeybee and angrily says, "No honey for you for one month!"
Later that afternoon, Johnny's dad catches him tearing the wings off a butterfly. "That's it! No butter for you for one month!" says his dad.
Later that evening as Johnny's mother cooks dinner, a cockroach run across the kitchen floor. She jumps and stomps on it, and then looks up to find Little Johnny and her husband watching her.

Little Johnny looks at his father and says, "Are you going to tell her, Dad, or do you want me to?"
