I absolutely, positively cannot stand roaches. They have got to be the creepiest, grossest thing out there. Ugh!
I have lived in 2 places with them. Once in Houston. The entire neighborhood got bombed every 3-4 months for ants and roaches. It's just how it is in tropical climates. But they always came back. I can still remember when I was 3-5 years old at night, laying in bed, listening to my mom using a newspaper to kill the roaches. Whack! followed by something like,"Die you filthy bastards!". They other place was an old apartment. I didn't find them till the summer, by then I was going to move in a month. It was an old building, nothing I could do about it. I just tried to keep everything clean and not think about it.
When I moved out to the boonies we had a house inspected for bugs before we bought it. I asked the guy if there were roaches, which he thought was hilarious. Probably thinking,"city folk". I guess they don't have them out here, thank God.
