Creepy ass bugs tale.
Just a short story about two roaches in Thailand....
It was on the island of Koh Yum. Very simple/primitive island. Only a few resorts most of which have no electricity between 22:00 and 06:00. So it's literally like a paradise.
I was staying in a cute wooden bungalow with a beach view. No windows but a good sturdy mosquito net around the bed. No electricty....so when it came to my toilet visit in the night I had to take my purchased pink maclite flash light. Siting on the toilet my first night shining curiously around the floor and walls I noticed 2 roaches. Yikes, they were beautiful..had lovely patterns, but I really am not the keen on huge bugs so I tried to scare them off. But they wouldn't go...in the end I just left them there. (I don't kill things).
Thankfully the next morning they had gone. The 2nd night they were back. Sitting quietly enjoying the peace of my bungalow. I tried to scare them off a little more rigorously. By turning the shower on and flushing one down the shower hole (where they must have crawled up in the first place). The other scuddled off after it and the bungalow was all mine again...
The 3rd night they were back again....what was with these 2. Never one, or 3. just these two- granted pretty roaches- but still friggin roaches. I left them thinking there was no point frightening them away anymore. I decided I would just lure a gecko in the next day...
The fourth night I went to the toilet (am I the only one that doesn't sleep through?). Sitting on the loo shining my pink light I only noticed one.....strange I thought. Where's the other one. Was he killed during the day..I checked behind the waste bin, behind the toilet....nope just the one.
I returned to my bed and shone the light on the mosquito net to find the small way in and to my horror....
The fucking 2nd roach was in my bed. I swear that fucker was out to get me. I have no idea how he got in there. There was a secure net all around the bed, tightly tucked in and under the mattress. I managed to scoop him out and changed bungalow the nxt day. Call me paranoid if you want bu that thing was just creepy!
Creepy ass bugs can share my bungalow but not my bed!
