We have family in a little village outside Valencia. The nearest town, Picassent was fitted out with a new sewage system a few years ago, & the houses there have been affected ever since. If you have them the chances are, all your neighbourhood will end up with them. The advice re food is sound. If you discourage them this way, the chances are you won't suffer too badly. The other attraction for them is warmth. They are more comfy in a nice warm house in February than scuttling about in the cold. The sprays are effective if you can leave rooms sealed for a time, but the trouble is that the eggs in their protective sacks are immune, so you need a second going over a few days after the first.
They are horrible things, & they seem so big in Spain.
