Worst Bug Infested Houses

[@stevenlatham4397]

There was a hoarder house in my town that got infested with bedbugs, roaches, and probably a multitude of other bugs so badly that the city and fire department actually did do a controlled burn to get rid of it.

I have been a pest control tech for over 20 years. First, the “German” cockroach infestation at the beginning of this video CAN be avoided. This type of infestation is due solely to uncleanliness and filth in someone’s home. German cockroaches are mainly looking for a food source, whereas other outdoor roaches such as, American, Smokey Brown and Brown Banded cockroaches are generally looking for a water source. This is why you see these big roaches outside under moist areas like straw beds and moist soil. Ants, no mater how large the infestation, can be controlled and eliminated, you just need to terminate the source which is the colony and that can take time and several applications of insecticide. Termites are generally silent destroyers until noticed due to home damage. Bed Bugs can be extremely difficult to eradicate fully and they are probably one of the main insects that I hate the most. Stink bugs can be guided elsewhere and should be handled gently to avoid the secretion. One thing that isn’t pointed out in this video is the fact that lady bugs are a protected species and if caught killing them it can result in major fines. We don’t kill lady bugs at all. It’s the same as bats, it is a $10,000 fine PER bat if you harm them. Law was passed in 1972 to protect them. You can relocate them from someone’s home, but never kill them. Yellow jackets are very annoying and their stings are very painful. Thankfully, I’ve never seen a nest like this one. Honey bees can cause a serious sting as well and it swells pretty bad if not treated. Carpenter bees don’t generally sting, they just eat wood but they can be controlled rather easily. Mosquitos are everywhere here in the south, just use repellent. Most of these insects can be controlled rather easily, you just have to know what chemical is best for what pest and then find the source, eliminate it, and continue preventative maintenance.

Bedbugs aren't a matter of cleanliness. You can have the cleanest house and still end up with bedbugs. There are decently cleaned hotels that you wouldn't think would have bedbugs. Bedbugs actually are infestations is er infestations from people who would bring in things that they feel are useful. There's a reason why you have to cut into mattresses before you throw them out. Cut into old couches. Make them unusable.

[@lalaland962]

My waste disposal company requires that anyone getting rid of a mattress buy a zippered plastic mattress cover before they'll take it.

I have dealt with 3 bedbug infections. 2 in my mom's house. My bf at the time and I were gonna move in together. So we threw our clothes in the washer and dryer on high heat and place them in bags that you can use a vacuum to shrink them. As an extra precaution we left those bags in the car for 4 days when we got to our new place since it was summer. By some miracle the bed bugs didn't come with us. When we found out the place we moved to was in foreclosure we had to move again. When we moved into the new apartment we found out the whole apartment complex had bedbugs. When my bf and I broke up I stayed in the apartment. When I met someone and it got serious I moved again and did the same wash and drying clothes with the bags vacuuming down and leaving them in the car for a week in the heat before bringing the clothes in to the new apartment and again by some miracle the bed bugs didn't come with me into the new place and thankfully this place had no bedbug infestation prior too moving in and is still bedbug free. Sadly I lost over 95% of my things cause of these bugs. I had to get new clothes and new things it was frustrating and expensive but it was worth it

I used to work in home health as a house cleaner, errand runner and companion. We would get special projects like cleaning homes that would otherwise be condemned. One of the worst homes we cleared was roach infested and covered in dog urine and poo. On my 1rst walk through to see if I could handle the job I was shocked. The urine soaked shag carpet would stick to your boots adding a layer to every step. I was so distracted by the floor I didn't see the roaches at first. The roach dirt was several inches thick on and in every cabinet, the refrigerator and all of the drawers. The refrigerator was still plugged in and running while it was filled with dead and live roaches. The roaches were dripped from the ceiling and came from everywhere including the outlets. Everything was covered in speckles of roach crap. Not long after that house I was called in to do a regular cleaning for an elderly woman that lived alone. She didn't have a vacume so I grabbed a broom to sweep the carpet halls and living area. After a minute I noticed the floor was looking worse like I was pulling stuff out of the carpet with my broom. On closer inspection I realized it was maggots. I immediately stopped and talked to the old woman about what I found. She was no help with what to do or how long this was a problem. I did notice she had several bandages on her arms and my heart heart sank. I took one off and there were maggots in her wounds. I notified my company and cleaned her up while waiting for the ambulance or the family to show up, which ever happened first.

Im dealing with that now and too ashamed to call pest control because my place isnt clean and it probably could've been avoided if i cleaned better and had diligence. But i ignored it and now i feel like i cant clean more because the ants are everywhere and im terrified of them running up my arms and legs. I just found hundreds more today all over my stove, i guess taking grease and food crumbs. Im so stressed. The ants have been here for over a year, ever since i moved in so it was already an issue. But due to my neglect it has gotten severe. Especially in the kitchen and bathroom. Shower, sinks, toilet sometimes. And all over the floors and kitchen. They are different sizes, and the trails they have in the kitchen is a couple inches wide, several rows of ants that never stop walking.

[@madamemulot7614]

@@BusinessCazual Hello there! I'm sorry to hear about your ants. Have you tried borax mixed with sugar? Borax is toxic to ants. Find yourself some "20-Mule Team" brand borax (usually in the clothing detergent section of the store), and mix it with some plain white sugar. You might need to grab several boxes but borax isn't very expensive. Put little piles all over your house, especially where the ants are the worst. They will pick up the sugar, looking for a sweet snack, and take it back to the nest. When they pick up the sugar, they also pick up some of the borax. They take it back to the nest to feed the other ants, and the borax will kill whoever eats it. Also pour lines of the borax and sugar mix all along the baseboards of your rooms, and on your windowsills. At the bases of your doors, outside, too. Anywhere you can think of. Put little dishes of it all over your house, for due diligence. This seriously works. You can Google it if you don't believe me! Hope this helps!

I once had a bedbug infestation after coming back from a beautiful vacation in Florida. Me and my family were greeted with hundreds of bedbugs. Trust me, that sucked. The house is and has been bedbug free ever since the bedbugs were exterminated. There was one that even crawled Inside my moms ear and bit her there as well. Luckily we got an exterminator to get rid of the bedbugs. I also had to sleep on the couch because my bedroom was not safe for me to sleep in during the infestation. I really hope that they don't EVER come back again.

[@ZeoViolet]

First, you probably brought them back with you. Bedbugs can't breed like crazy if you are not at home to help them. They would not have bred in solitude while you were gone. Sleeping on the couch was also stupid since bedbugs can smell your CO2 and sense your body heat, and would have just spread to the couch before long. They follow you. A reliable exterminator would have told you to sleep in your bed to prevent the infestation from spreading until it was dealt with. You could have lost your house all the damned furniture in it. :/ Yeah, sorry it happened to you though, dude. Had it happen once myself. Bye bye sanity.

[@Pumpkin525]

I once had a marmot get into the crawl space and get trapped in the ducts. About a week after we removed it, hundreds and hundreds of flies started coming out of the crawl space and into the house. It was like a miniature plague of flies. It was hard to even prepare food without flies getting into it. Take it from me, if you suspect some animal has taken a dump in your crawl space, clean it out immediately or you may find yourself in a similar situation.

[@MsAubrey]

The one and only time my house had bedbugs, apparently the exterminator was extremely impressed. The moment one was found, we put EVERYTHING that we possibly could, into garbage bags (we had 87 garbage bags of clothes, stuffed animals, pillows, etc.; anything that would fit) and the item that we found the one on, was my daughter's wicker laundry basket, which we promptly put into a garbage bag and took outside. In the chilly rain, we saw a bunch emerge... we just tied that bag up and said bye to that laundry basket. I called the exterminator that afternoon told them all of the things we did and they sent someone out a few days later. The exterminator checked and treated every room, every bed, couch, chair, baseboard, and closet. However, he stated that he only found evidence in ONE room, which was my daughter's bedroom... where we found the one in her laundry basket. He also commented that there was very little evidence of them, even in her room... which means, we found them VERY quickly. Any time any of my kids go somewhere to stay the night [with a few exceptions], they know that they're required to come home, go to the bathroom, strip and put their clothes in a bag, take a shower, and do their laundry immediately... we have a basement bathroom next to our laundry room. That might be paranoid, but I never want to deal with that ever again! I was lucky the first time. It only cost me $350 and I have a [including the basement, because he treated that too] 1900+ square foot home. Spray AND HEAT TREAT is necessary. Heat will kill them every time.

[@ZeoViolet]

Depending on the size of the infestation, steam treatment might also be an option if one's infestation isn't too far along. My apartment house had it start upstairs (the people there often were in and out and had friends over) and it spread to me because neither of them reacted to bed bug bites. I'm a very allergic person, so I DID. It didn't take me long to recognize the problem for what it was and react immediately. Landlord is a good guy and the exterminator had some profound laurels. He made use of both chemicals and steam treatment, and everyone in the building cooperated instead of fighting and pointing fingers, so it was a very rare "in one fell swoop" type of deal. Second treatment was done as a precaution, but according to the exterminator, they'd actually gotten it all the first time. I nearly lost my sanity but did everything I could figure would help, and he was impressed.

[@MsAubrey]

@@ZeoViolet Yeah... steam also = heat. It's my understanding that if no heat is applied, it's VERY difficult to get rid of them all. So... you got lucky just like I did. Good that everyone cooperated.

[@ZeoViolet]

@@MsAubrey Steam heat is best for localized application though...you'd need a professional steamer for that. Heat needs to be evenly distributed if one goes the heated-house route. Exterminators will make you spread everything out so no cool spaces can form. This is why I was concerned with something that you were relying on for heat...bundling everything in there could have heated up the outer areas very well, but left the inside too cool for it to happen. Both methods are best backed up with chemical application. The third apartment wasn't hit yet, but the place was checked and a barrier system of chemicals applied anyways, to prevent it from happening. Using just chemicals is what causes so much more money in the long run. Many bedbugs have developed resistances to it. Bug bombs and such don't work because they can't reach where bedbugs hide...in nooks and crannies. All you do is drive bedbugs into wall voids, and if they get in there....yeah once you are there, that is the point of no return. A very, very expensive act of wrapping the house up and fumigation is your last hope after that. Otherwise wall voids are unreachable. Just be sure that if anyone does DIY, they do it smartly. Unless done after research and in the early stages, it usually causes the problem to spiral thousands of dollars out of control. I did my homework back in 2014 when it happened, but I was so traumatized that I can recite all the do's and don'ts (a list far longer than this!) to this day.

I have an infestation to share, my mom’s bathroom used to be infested with ants (not nearly as big as these infestations though), and she would freak out whenever she saw one of the little dudes (I would often kick into guard dog mode until realizing it was just a harmless little ant, these guys don’t bite). She seemed to hate them so much, but wouldn’t call pest control due to it being inconvenient, despite everybody’s suspicions that there was an anthill in the walls. Finally, I managed to pressure her into calling pest control (though it took a bit of drilling to make her give in). She finally called them, but I don’t really know the details on what happened after (pretty sure the ants are gone).

Infestations are so sickening and it's awful if you're trapped. When I was homeless I was sleeping in an abandoned drug house in South Georgia. Some of the windows were busted out and others were stuck open, so you could imagine all the pests that got in. There was literally a wasp nest inside the room I slept in. I was sleeping on a nasty mattress on the floor, which was at least 5 inches thick with food garbage and random stuff. At night I could feel the roaches crawling around on me and I just had to force myself to get over it, there was nothing I could do. Sometimes I'd wake up covered in ants too. I wouldn't wish any of that on my worst enemy

I am so sorry you had to go through that 🥺

Bro I flinched so hard because I thought the cockroaches where moving by themselves.

[@diaryofarealmom3264]

I moved into an apartment with them and they were the most hellish thing I’ve ever dealt with. And actually they can live up to 18 months without eating, not 5.

[@Thepatientsadvice]

My friend in Patoka Indiana (it was on the news you could probably find the footage) had such a bad bee infestation that honey was dripping down the walls. I would go over there and we could watch honey pour down the walls like some horror movie, but instead of blood running from the walls it was honey. I'm also allergic to bees and wasps so I didnt realize how close I was to becoming the actual movie "my girl" until the experts tore into it. a 2 story building with the whole left side of the house becoming one honeycomb.

[@garystinten9339]

Plot twist.. the bees had nominated her the QUEEN. They also let you live because they saw how you treated her.

[@Dylan-Frost]

On the plus side your friend could probably make a killing selling honey

[@kittykaht1944]

I live in Minnesota and in the summertime by bodies of water you can get infestations of mayflies. At night they're attracted to light so they'll cover the entire window on the outside if there's a light on on the inside. So many on the sidewalks that you couldn't avoid stepping on them. There have been times they were so bad that they've used snow plows to remove them off of the bridges so that the cars won't get in accidents. I kid you not

[@atr0cxty943]

For real?? We here in texas just have a ton of mosquitos

[@cheri6360]

Yes we have these in the upper part of Michigan in the summer time. They are disgusting 🤮

[@artchic528]

Fun fact: mayflies emerge from their larval state with no mouths and don’t eat as adults. They use what energy stores they had from eating as larvae to fly around and mate, then the male dies while the female dive bombs into the water to die as she releases her eggs.

[@pagananarchist4723]

I'm not gonna lie. That clip of the ants is oddly satisfying to watch

[@universal2057]

I’ve had 2 massive swarms First one I had was a lady bug infestation that went to the point there was so many ladybugs on my porch i couldn’t even see my porch My second one was when a horse died and millions of flies flew all over the place, it essentially had so many flies that some areas i couldn’t even see anymore because it was pure flies and note i have a bug phobia, so it was hell

I love this channel... And it's good to see that this channel is about to hit a great milestone of 10M. ❤️❤️

[@iridianseraph4307]

When I was a kid in Des Moines, Iowa we had a ladybug infestation. It was winter so we think they came into the house for warmth. We came home and ALL ceilings of our house were coated so heavily in ladybugs that we couldn't even see the ceilings anymore.

[@jaystreet46]

I feel bad for anyone who has to deal with bedbugs! I’ve heard they’re next to impossible to irradiate. Last summer my cat got fleas, and that was bad enough. Took months to get rid of

[@colynman]

bed bugs can only be killed and controlled and solved as long as you catch them before the problem gets so out of hand to the point there everywhere and you can see them right in your view like roaches between roaches and bed bugs they hide and are hard to see when the infestation is small but when they get so out of control you can see them clear as day without needing to even look in the small hiding spots they start out in then you might have a problem getting rid of them

[@glizzyplayzyt]

@@colynman i can refute that claim it actually can be handled if it gets out of control it just costs alot more me and my family had it bad once real bad maybe 1000 in the house but my stepmom paid $5000 usd in cash too get the house sprayed they did the carpet walls everything hot steamed the house and we had too put these mattress covers on our beds they go over the mattress and zip up but they did that for about 3 months but the problem was already gone about 2 but we had too also throw away all paper all our school items anything they could of been on so yea

[@opinionguy7615]

My father had an bedbug infestation in 1990s when he was in college. He lived with 3 other siblings and his mother. they waited for 10 days without calling pest control. They killed them with poison and with hands for 10 days.

[@MsAubrey]

HEAT HEAT HEAT! Or... if you can't put extreme heat to the item, put it in the freezer for several days. Anything that can be washed in the washing machine, wash on HOT and dried at the highest setting. Our exterminator used a heat gun and sprayed pesticide and I am SO GLAD to say that they were eradicated. We found them early though.

[@Brandon-ch2ot]

Yeah the smoke bombs on each floor got my investation of fleas under control

“Some say the bugs were provoked by the intrusion of humans into their natural habitat, that 'live and let live' is preferable to war with the bugs.”

[@Gingers4u1]

I have dealt with cockroaches, bedbugs, fleas, mealybugs and fruit flies all by myself for years. I am a single woman, now 62, and have rid them all myself between my home and my mom's and a couple of friends. What the first thing to do is 'fog' the house with raid. One can per room. Make sure the drawers are open along with all the other things it says. Wash the sheets etc. Then you steam the house and furniture. You make sure you do the baseboards, cracks and crevices. I even removed them from the furniture with spraying and steaming. No, it cannot be done in one day. But you keep cleaning, steaming and spraying daily. Then put down Diatomaceous Earth. There is also a night light that has sticky paste paper in it. They are atrackted to the light. Another thing is put down a bowl of water. When they jump in the water they drown because they cannot get out. Why waste money on the expensive terminators when you can do it yourself allot cheaper. Same thing with bees and fly nests outside. You get a bucket of water, put a peice of wood with either peanut butter, cat food or something they are attracked to on the bottom of the board. Then when the bees or flies go under to eat it, from them going up and down, they hit the water and again drown because they cannot swim. Good luck.

[@amandagardiner6065]

I've actually been in a house that had both bed bugs and roaches just about as bad the infestations in those videos.

[@benjijohnsony1846]

Seems like weird scenario since roaches prey on bedbugs. sounds like a double horrible whammy

[@f1r3cat75]

Same, my boyfriends house was like that and I had to stay there for a month and a half. It was unpleasant

[@Orion_The_Omega]

I live in Georgia and when it was still cold, we had a large LadyBud problem. More or less, it was just a lot more then I I was comfortable with. They weren't that bad since the only Stade on the corners of my house and never really going anywhere other then that. I still find Laby bug corpses when I clean and it's been like a month and a half since they started coming

[@Bulgeofpersuasion]

Ladybugs are good bugs. I would happily live with a ladybug infestation.

I don’t get any ladybugs or infestations but I get the stink bugs that just show up on my wall every week or month

[@HKMcRooney]

Those stink bugs get EVERYWHERE here in MI. The apartment I used to live in wasn't sealed well at all so we always had stink bugs floating around. They'd die in the lights and collect, appear three inches from your face in the middle of the night, and my roommate said she had one fall into her mouth one night... They are so gross. Nothing you can do about it much either cause they're looking for the warm here, so they're auto-drawn to houses.

Me and my siblings stay with our moms house for the week, and we go to dads for the weekends, but for a few years, we had to deal with bedbugs at both places because dad got bedbugs first, but managed to get into our stuff when we go back to moms, we had to unfortunately deal with that for 2 years before they were all gone... so try to remove every bedbug as quick as possible before they infest your entire home.

One of my housemate few years back brought Bed Bugs into our apartment. She thought it was a good idea to host someone who have his own apartment infested by bed bugs... Yea you too find its dumb dumb, but she thought it was nice. I didnt knew about all of this obviously. When I first discovered, I was watching a movie on my bed late at night just having a good time before bed, when all of a sudden I saw a freaking bed bug on my sheet. I knew by the look of it that a nightmare did started. I knew how a bed bug looked like, and I knew it was one. In a panic mode, I flipped my bed over just to see a freaking family of those stupid bugs full of blood. Thanks god, not at the extend of what we saw in the video. ( I would have pass away probably of heart attack ) I didnt knew what to do on the spot I was panicking... I couldnt do nothing because it was past 12h00am... So on the spot, I learned that when you kill those stupid bugs, it stink badly. I knew it because I killed all of those that I could saw, but I knew I could not killed them all. I wrapped my mattress of plastic bag and sealed it completely. (dont think it was that helpful tho lol) The thing was I couldnt go somewhere else either because the last thing I wanted is to bring those nasty thing into a friends house or family member house. Well thats what normal people do, but not my housemate... This was the worse night I had. In the morning of the following day I called the exterminator and called my parents crying. When I knew the situation was over, I moved away from that housemate as fast as possible, not knowing what the next chapter it could be. I didnt wanted to know either. Turns out my housemate knew about the situation since the beginning. But she didnt thought it might be a good idea to notify me of the situation... She told me that she thought it would resolve by itself... lol Neither her nor the man that was sleeping with her that brought the bugs with him took responsibility. I had to take the situation into hands myself being obviously the only normal person there. I had to call the exterminator and pay all of it. She never excuse herself to me nor the owner of the apartment. A complete useless person. It was my last experience with a housemate. My trust just disappeared from this point. Now I live alone in my apartment. No trouble, no bugs, no BS, no noise, no problem. Its paradise. I still have nightmares about bugs and sometimes I might feel a hair and I have to look to confirmed its not a bug... I hope no one has to live this because it stays in your head for a long time.

When I was a little kid I had an infestation of ladybugs that had accumulated on all four of my walls in my bedroom, I have told my parent that there is a bunch of ladybugs in my room and of course oh, my parents did not believe me. Until she came in herself and had never seen that many ladybugs in her entire life.

[@DrachenGothik666]

I've seen the ladybug swarms a couple of times in Muir Woods. I'm a bit weird in that it didn't creep me out--it was fascinating. I got tons of photos, too. They gather like that for two reasons, preparing for winter, they gather by the tens of thousands to keep warm under leaf litter. The other reason is mating.

If you have a ant infestation you need to put boiling water on them you can put the boiling water on the trails of ants of the nest . You should probably put the boiling water on the nest so you should take them out for good.

[@DrachenGothik666]

One infestation that happened every few years in my hometown of Winnipeg (in Canada) was Tent Caterpillars (sometimes called Army Worms). They're moth larva, & swarm by the billions some years, eating anything leafy in sight, covering entire trees & bushes with their webbing like something out of a horror film. Looks eerie & amazing. The plants surprisingly get through the experience with little trouble & just regrow their leaves once the invasion is done in a couple of weeks.

[@olivebrosnan4437]

I used to have a infestation of fleas in my home. We had an outdoor cat who we’d let back inside but she must’ve gotten fleas from the outdoors and soon it traveled to our dogs and then to us. I hated it so much, I’d have to fucking drown them and rip them apart. They bit me so hard that I had itched my whole body and some parts had started to bleed. Eventually we moved out and our cat was outside whilst we moved so we never got to see her again. It’s likely that she’s dead or in a lovely home. I miss you, cocoa beans.

[@mread958]

Any cats outside will bring in pests. Cats do not need to be outside. They are perfectly happy indoors. Terrible things happen to them or they kill song birds. Not taking the cat with you was just plain awful. He came home and wondered why everyone left him! They don't know what's going on. All they know is they are alone. He probably suffered A horrible death due to your irresponsible behavior. Shame on you.

Bed bugs are EXTREMELY difficult to get rid of! I was staying with my boyfriend who had both roaches and bed bugs and it was awful.. we ended up throwing everything into a metal garage because if bed bugs get to hot they die, and it was in Arizona which is up in the 100s during summer anyway

[@ZeoViolet]

Yeah that is very unlikely to work on its own. You have to distribute the heat evenly. No metal cage is going to penetrate the center in that manner.

I always try to spare a hunting spider when I see one cause they keep insect and other spider populations in check so long as you only see one or two. Venus flytraps help too.

[@petrescuework-difficultcas6581]

I have made great experience with Pinguicula if you want a carnivorous plant that isn't too picky to care for. Drosera also works with sticky leaves, but it a bit more tricky in care. With Pinguicula you basically only water them that much they always have 'wet feet' and give them high sun. They don't need more. When placed at a window in the kitchen for example, they will catch flies, moths, fruit flies and small bugs.

[@catco5098]

About 40 years ago when I lived out in the country my home was infested with biting fleas. They were everywhere and on everything. I got a bag of Sevin dust and sprinkle it all over the house and left it for a while, vacuumed it up never had another flea or any other bug in that house again.

We had to leave our flat as I was pregnant. We found an attic flat and paid 2 pounds 3 and ninepence a week. We started waking up scratching in the middle of the night and found we had bedbugs. I rang the landlord and he said we must have brought them with us. It was going to cost too much to have the place "stoved" so we bought some Secto and squeezed the powder in the beams etc. We moved shortly after thank goodness. Now that I live in Queensland I have the place sprayed and sometimes find a cockroach on its back, I can't move it till it's completely dead. I hate them.

I was getting a lot of roaches in one of my rooms in my apartment. The worst part is they work very quietly and sometimes you don't even realize there's a whole family of them until you uncover or lift something up - they love dark spaces - under furniture. For example, I did not realize there was a whole family nest in one of my old inkjet printers until I took out the paper tray and I saw the whole army scurrying about. Then I discovered them under the sofa, in and under cardboard boxes that weren't perfectly sealed, and even under one of my computer's NAS drives - they love heat too! Watch your computers as they can get in through vent holes - your computer could crash due to a real "computer bug". I really got tired of this and didn't want my room to look like that in the video. The best way to get rid of roaches is not to get them in the first place. They usually come up from basements through the walls. In my old apartment building, due to settling of the building over the years, the floor and ceiling molding separated from the walls in some places, giving access to the roaches. I sealed up all of the holes and cracks I could using plastic wood, silicone sealant and steel wool. A common entry point also for mice and rats too are pipe holes in the kitchen. The first step is controlling how to prevent them from coming into your home in the first place, then get rid of the ones that are already there and making babies galore - poison traps, glue traps are very effective. I wound up getting rid of my old inkjet printer since they smelled it up and it was so disgusting- I am due for a new one anyway.

[@CancelHappiness]

I hate the misconception that bed bugs are ALWAYS caused by the person being dirty. Those things come straight from hell and they can live practically anywhere
