Get you some ant feeder from Lowe’s They kill roaches, termites any insect not just ants. Sprinkle it all around your apartment. Get you some glue trap put one in each corner. One on each side of the counter top. Get you some bate motels. DO NOT BOMB it will only make the infestation worse. You will have to keep your apartment clean. Wash dishes everyday don’t leave food out. Mop with bleach OR OR ammonia. Dilute with water. When you cook put your food up immediately take the trash out every day

If you leave the source out you are going to give them a place to stay. If you see big roaches but no babies they’re probably not infested but once you see babies there’s an infestation and a nest. Those are the one that are harder to get rid of. Same for pregnant ones. It’s gross to think about but it’s the absolute truth. If you have rms they need to be on the same page. If one is dirty then all this is pointless
