With regards to using the mesh: doesn't the roaches need a place to hide and rest under?

All the other tips&tricks are amazingly useful! Thanks:)

The room is 90% of the time dark with no windows so I don't have a problem.
To clean or move the whole lot... Another tip... Flood the whole bloody box slowly so as not to lift the dirt and scoop or have them climb over a mesh bridge to the new box. This way you don't miss one or have to stress about them getting out to the yard.

Awesome tip, I hate ants , but I'm very against using pesticides. Apart from protection for my T's this will also help stop them making aphid farms on my aloes and cacti. kungfu
