    I’ll take the person. I lived with roaches in the past. Were impossible to get rid of and would keep destroying stuff including electronics. Not to mention the SOUND at night. Those 1000 roaches will also rapidly multiply to be way more.

    I’m glad to be out of that place. In the person case I am sure I could either reason with them (If they’re living in my attic out if necessity) or have the authorities involved (If they’re a danger to me).

      An easier (but more time consuming way) to get rid of roaches is with bait, not spray. Use spray only in areas you absolutely don’t want them to touch, because they know it’s bad and just avoid it. Use little amounts of bait everywhere else. Then you wait, and wait, and slowly they die and don’t come back.
