i live in a pretty old building (my flat was renovated before i moved in but i don't think it was done all that thoroughly). at the beginning of summer i saw a couple of cockroaches which scared me to death so i invested in traps and black caps. for a month and half i have not seen any, but in the past two days i saw two around my kitchen area (or maybe it was the same one? i didn't manage to get it with the spray…). i think it was a younger one, which also makes me worried because maybe there's a nest? i keep my kitchen clean and i don't leave food out, so i don't know what attract them there. it's the second floor and there are plenty unsealed points in the flat. should i contact a professional? is there anything else i can do? i'm from eastern europe and the only time i saw a cockroach before coming to japan was when i was on a trip to spain, so i'm completely unused to them and they scare me to death. i even had a nightmare that i left a room for a moment and when i came back a cockroach was drinking my tea lol. it's unlocking truly unprecedented amounts of stress in me since i'm not normally scared of bugs and the like but this is where i fail i guess
