Me who spent months taking Tupperware boxes full of cockroaches out of the freezer and separating them by hand because our ants were picky eaters: I still smell them, to this day.

Thanks ants. Thants.

yikes. how do you react when you get a whiff? is it already too late and you don't smell them until they are next to you, or is it a general "oh wow you have a roach prob in this house"

if its in my room, that shitling better gtfo my place. if they just arrived i can usually smell them when theyre around 1m off me. but if they been chilling in the room i can smell them once i enter the room. imagine like walking little turd. the more they are the worse the smell.
