[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Came back to update. I did diatomaceous earth, used up a can of roach and ant spray that had sat under the sink for a few years. Then dusted and put out bait traps. Got some Pestblock expanding foam (old house, there are gaps between the counter backsplash and wall because the wall is not even, other gaps and cracks) but wanted to get rid of them first before possibly steering them to another location.

Every so often an adult but more often a few little babies, always on the same counter in the kitchen. Never a noticeably increasing population but persistent. And they were German roaches.

Then it dawned on me--the babies especially would show up when I moved the coffeemaker. I finally realized they weren't hiding there, they were living in the base (not, fortunately, in the coffee producing area, never saw a bug or part of a bug in the water well or anywhere else when I made coffee). B[b]agged up the coffee maker and tossed it. [/b]Not a single bug since.

Then I googled it, many, many tales of cockroaches in coffee makers and apparently a chronic problem in commercial places. [/quote]
