    Overwhelmed of cockroaches

    I am a new resident here, and I have been living in the apartment for less than a month. I have noticed an overwhelming number of cockroaches. I have set traps myself, and it never stops. I have informed the management, the office, and it still doesn’t end. I highly recommend you get another apartment—do not stay here.
