Let's hope Zonker has enough restraint to not represent this description with an animated GIF.

And finally, there are some people here who you definitely do NOT want to start dick-measuring contests with. They have drawers full of them and I understand they're all quite big.

Hey no fair Pugsy, Froggie and I can't join this contest. :lol:

Since you said this I had to go look at gifs. I found a couple of good ones but yeah, I don't think I will post them here. :lol: They were not family friendly. (Even though one of them was the goblin king). 8)

I got these Zip-Loc Big Bags (pack of 6) for around $6.50 at Walmart. Works great! Noticed a hole in the bag this morning. Put bag and equipment into another bag and sealed it. Highly recommended!

...roach problem...
Buy a large package of Bay leaves and put some wherever the damned beasts lurk. I was hesitant until I googled. It works to not only make the roaches go away but also lots of other bugs. BTW, few leaves are great in veggy soup. This is what I bought https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00 ... UTF8&psc=1

OK I just couldn't walk away from this one. When I was still working ( alphabet soup after my name, doesn't mean diddly now ) when we had new students come in and I gave them their orientation I always stress that this is the way I did things. It may not be right and the easiest but that was the way I did things. Now as they rotated with other people I told them that everyone has a different way of doing things and that there was no "right" way only the way that suited them. Also as they were new if they found or knew a better way please tell me. We changed many protocols on inspirations or ideas of students. Sleep tech for 30 years, have you kept up with the times, education, seminars etc. Have you questioned what you have been told and tried it out yourself or are you the expert since you have been doing it the same way for 30 years. :?:

as per the roaches have you tried a plastic/plexiglass box with tiny holes drilled in it for airflow or how about those bags that the bakery use for freshly baked bread. They use porous plastic bags that allow the steam to evaporate from the warm bread and not let it go soggy.

I recommend going to a motel for the weekend and use diatomaceous earth and boric acid to send those roaches to the afterlife.

Fabric shops sell very fine net material. I think you could double that up a few times and make a net bag to help with the problem. I use those little black combat things and that has always done the trick for me.
