I'm not alone ~~


Before I proceed, a warning. Weak hearts, please please skip this entry!

If you think I am alone in this house in Adelaide, you are sooo wrong... I have accompanieSSS...

And here they are ~

Everyone who knows me well enough will know that I am afraid of worms and friends, namely caterpillar, maggots, millis and centis... I was totally petrified when I first saw them IN MY HOUSE. Imagine, about 20-30 millipedes crawling in your house. And freaking hell, they do know how to CAMOUFLAGE with the carpet. Some garang ones will crawl across into the house, while most timid ones crawl by the sides.

If you think they are easily killed, think again. They curled up, giving them EXTRA armour. I gave up even TRYING after failing to kill one, say, after 10times? So the next day, I immediately went to get insecticide.

I didnt know there were soooo many types of insecticides. Ant killer, cockroach killer, Outdoor spray, spider control... just to name a few. In the end, I bought the one for crawling insects.

It is effective. Direct spray and I was able to create a barrier underneath my door which deters the millis. Well, at least it managed to keep out ~90% of the millis, which I thought is reasonable since there might be some blind spots here and there. These days though, I wonder if the barrier has lost effect or the millis has evolved to gain resistance to the insecticides, a new series of millis invasion started.

So anyway, I got another bottle of insecticides and hopefully, the insecticides do deliver what they promise: Kill FAST!

所谓少见多怪,多见不怪,我也麻木了。杀它们时,我还念经咧。
