Ok, I'm a hardworking guy. I do my job, I study hard at school, I don't make much... but I make enough to buy my daily bread. + Show Spoiler +
(all lies)


I live in a pretty crappy place, but I have the room to myself, and it's nice. Not too hot, or humid. Close to school (where I spend most of my time)... so imagine my suprise when I came home today and found out that I'd been ROBBED.

+ Show Spoiler [clicky_if_you_dare] +

[image loading]
I could probably still save a bit of it...

Nah better not try.

What the fuck took a bite out of my bread? I mean mice are too small, as are rats. Centipedes and bats are carnivorous. What the fuck tore through my bread and took a huge ass bite from it? Is there anything under my bed? brb. Nope.

Ah it must be the cockroaches. Most rats are too afraid to enter my house for fear of the roaches.



+ Show Spoiler +

How the hell did it even get up there?


[image loading]
What the? How.. but this...? How does this even make any sense????!!!

Ok there's a small crack to my room, but it's not really big enough for rats or mice to get through. I'm pretty sure I'm not taking midnight sleepwalking snacks so I don't know what the fuck did this. blegh... I think it ate part of another bag too, that one had a puny hole and I already ate the slice of bread in it thinking the bag was manufactured improperly.


What the FUCK? I have to sleep here tonight man!

I'm throwing this shit out and calling my residence office for some cockroach poison.

Also note, I didn't even touch the bag.

Seriously they can. I've seen a mouse acrobatically jump into our dryer's exhaust exit-pipe outside (it has shutters on it like a window blind). I was like "wtf" when I saw it happen- also, the bastard died and stank up the laundry room for a week, but that is another story. The main point of this post is to reinforce what has been quoted.

Probably mice... looks like too much damage at once for roaches. My roommate and I had some in our apartment last october. We never saw what they ate, but we sometimes saw one scurry when we walked into a room and turn on a light. Get some mouse traps that look like this:

Shamelessly borrowed from nbjianer.en.alibaba.com it seems

because these trip much more easily than the 'classic' mouse trap, small mice won't set those off. Put some peanut butter in the little dish as bait and set them toward a wall (mice run alongside walls). Should work pretty well, that's how we got rid of ours.

Ya +1 to the rodent hypothesis. Rat/mice don't have clavicles(collar bones) and can compress themselves through small spaces a lot smaller than you would think.

Also I have a colony of about 1000 roaches right now. Mine are a lot bigger than the Oriental and American roaches you would find around your house and it would take a fair amount of mine to eat that much bread. They wouldn't make the hole that big either, just large enough for them to get in.

(EDIT: spelling)

Really? Your roaches are bigger than rats too?

I know it's mice. I'll seal off the crack.

I was gonna say it's probably rats but now too many people are saying that so I changed my mind, it's definitely cockroaches.


Speaking of mice my cat brought a mouse in the house and let it go and now I have a mouse hanging out in my room where I sleep, it will probably wake me up doing it's mice things in the middle of the night. I hope it doesn't eat my magic cards.
