The past couple of days we have encountered a new challenge. It didn't have to do with demolition or building, but with the well known fact of life in the South.. the cockroaches.
Being the "smart" group we are we failed to read the notices posted in the room we are staying in. When finally read on Wednesday night we were informed:
"Food is to be eaten only in the dining room as cockroaches are a major problem here and are known to breed rapidly where there is food."
Needless to say, we have now cleaned out all of the cookies, pop, fruit, chips, candy etc. that littered the room for the first couple of days. Our efforts to tidy the room were not 100% effective as we have now seen cockroaches up to 3 feet long in the girl's room. When a piercing scream is heard, it is probable that the cause was one of these skittering pests. The problem can be solved with a hard stomp of the foot.
Note to parents: It is advised that all youth empty their suitcase in the basement or outside to check for cockroaches and/or eggs.
