    We've had them in our house in Cyprus - had to get a pest control company in to 'spray'

    Folks say that they live/breed mainly in the drains etc, so maybe 'spray' in there???

    We had all the cockroaches you could want in Saudi Arabia. I can't imagine you'd have too many in this part of the world.
