Water bug cockroaches
June 10, 2026 - Reseña de Apartments.com
I moved in on March 15 2026 and there was a recurring water bug (giant cockroach) issue in this complex. Three of my neighboring residents have told me they have experienced similar problems and advised me to keep all drains closed. As a result, I constantly keep my shower, bathroom sink, and kitchen drains shut because bugs could come through them.
While management was responsive to a point, I was told they were not aware of a building-wide bug issue. However, multiple residents I have spoken ...
with have experienced similar problems over the past year. The primary recommendation from Ana (Property Manager) and Jose (Maintenance Technician) was also to keep my drains closed at all times.
Management arranged for pest control, but the treatment only consisted of spraying the interior of my apartment to kill off any that were already inside. My concern is that the underlying source of the problem may extend beyond individual units.
For transparency, here is the timeline of what I experienced after moving in on 3/15:
• 3/19 – Found a dead roach in the kitchen?• 3/24 – Saw a live roach?• 3/25 – Jose installed sticky traps?• 4/1 – Pest control treatment performed?• 4/7 – Another roach sighting?• 4/8 – Offered a second treatment?• 4/8 – Purchased and installed roach gel and bait traps at my own expense?• 4/9 – Killed a roach in my unit?• 4/14 – Found a dead roach in a bathroom cabinet?• 4/15 – Second pest control treatment
Since 4/15, I have not seen any roaches inside my apartment (as of 6/10), although I have continued to see them outside the building.
I appreciate that management provided pest control services, but I wanted to share my experience so prospective residents can make an informed decision. Other than that, Ana and Jose are helpful and responsive so I appreciate them being a resource.
