It’s been a few months since the last post as we finally got our new place and have been busy going through the transaction process.
Upon getting the keys, the sellers had five fresh water lobsters still swimming in the pond. Their new home was still under construction and they had no space to keep them in their rental apartment.
The next day, we were going through the house discussing ideas for the interior fitout and found cockroaches in the kitchen cabinets. Hmm, that we did not want to keep.
While studying in Australia, we always bought insecticide to fumigate the whole house before moving in. It comes in a canister and when set off releases a cloud of insecticide. All the doors and windows would be shut and we would go catch a movie. After a few hours, all the bugs would be dead and it was time to vacuum the whole place.
We popped over to the supermarket but could not find a similar product. In the end, we bought a normal spray type canister insecticide. The product was water based so we hope it would be easier to clean the cabinets and timber floor after the killing spree.
