The other day, at my homestay house “the Pest Control” was done*. On that day in the morning before I Ieft home my homestay mother said ‘This morning will be very busy’.
But, after school when I came back home, it seemed that nothing had been done.
Actually I did not find any cockroaches at my home since my first day of homestay. I didn’t know what “the Pest Control” meant really… It was on the following day that I understood the meaning.
I got up, tried to go to the bathroom and…I saw a lot of dead cockroaches all over the house, the garage and the porch… I realized I had been living with a lot of “Pests” and I was in shock.
I am not sure I wanted to find out…

* THIS IS ACTUALLY A VERY COMMON PROBLEM IN AUSTRALIA. EVEN VERY CLEAN HOUSES ARE LIKELY TO HAVE A FEW COCKROACHES RUNNING AROUND – AND SOME OF THEM CAN GET QUITE BIG. (CCEB)
Wow !! The Pest Control sounds great for humans. So now you can live in safely without “pets”. Enjoy your new life without any pets 🙂 Akemi
