Hi Wei Er... you're so cute!!! Shall we trade.. you tell me how to get rid of millipedes and I tell you how to get rid of croakies?? :p I'm just kidding... :) If you can get your hands on pandan leaves, crush them and hang them aorund... apparently cockroaches are afraid of them....

Wei said...

lolz....think millipedes are easier to handle since they don't fly around and have less cahnge in invading your personal bubble. I have yet to find a good way to handle millipedes but its a good idea that you can actually still sweep them up and chuck them into the bin. But i wld help i enquire some good aussie advice from my relos.Thanks for advice but i ahve one big problem. They dont seem to sell pandan leaves here leh...How?=)

pest are pest. they are meant to be around. and maybe, they are meant to be.. ehem.. KILLED. (: cockroaches are too horrible lah. go get pesticides. it works wonders. oh oh.. mum used to have this kind of special paper, i aint sure what is it. but apparently it 'ward' off the roach. maybe, i'll send it to you via a package, yes? alright. my room is infested with those BIG flying ants and mosquito. okay. not as bad as cockroach. but alright.

Hey you know what..i tried Mortin (a Pesticide here) and it doesnt help lor..this huge croakie just keep running and running. There's no way i can actuali have time to grab a tong to flatten it..AAnd thats pretty gross thing esp when i have to clean up after that..=PHey i prob need some fo those paper soon actuali(i actuali got some from home but think they need to change every 3 months.) see if its cheap to send cos i think Justin spent abt 11 buck in sending tat watch over. thanks anyways...and btw ants and mozzies are no way as bad as croakies..=)

Haha... thanks babe! :) Hmmm how bout getting pandan leave essence?? Or get someone from home to crush the leaves and make pandan leave paper or pandan leave candles?? Ok ok... the latter is a lil overboard... :p Have you tried those sticky traps? I've seen them being used on tv but I'm not sure how effective it is... I hope you catch that pest soon!! :)

Wei said...

we actuali thot abt the essence thingy after you mention about pandan.We talked abt dripping a few droups on different spot on the carpet everyday and by the end of our lease we prob turn that gray to a green carpet..lolz!! Anways thanks for your help and would keep helping you to enquire how to get rid of millipedes..=)
