Pissed off with pest problems
-
Hello . You guys should have guessed it , its SMRT again .
Im quite pissed with the fact that , today is the third time i've taken a SMRT bus infested with roaches . First is TIB783G on 171 . My dad told me there was a roach crawling just inches beside me . I took out my slipper wanting to kill it , but it escaped .
Next is TIB793C on 176 . Thot a CAC Merc cameo on 176 would be a nice one , but i was astounded upon realizing the amount of litter on the bus. The bus is extremely filthy. At the exit doors area , there is a large transparent plastic bag . Some tissues , wrappers are there as well. Not only that , this bus is infested with 3 roaches , or even more. I killed 2 with my slippers . very disgusting. Another was a little tiny one crawling next to my legs.
Today is the next one , TIB558R on 176. After sitting comfortably , i happened to look down and realize there is a 1cm big roachie crawling on the tissue next to me. So i decided to change seats . But then again , the fabric seats is so smelly that i couldn't stand the odour anymore and i change seats again.
Buses having litter problem couldnt be avoided if the people continue to litter . But what about pest?? Surely SMRT can do something about it . Having a roach crawling beside you isn't a nice experience.

I had to endure a 1 hour plus journey on 67 seating next to the cockroaches. I couldn't even change seats. The Rigid was packed to the brim.
That ride from Tampines to Upper Bukit Timah Road (NUS) was well, disgusting. Seeing cockroackes crawling on the seat infront of me and on the window panel beside me. Imagine my relief when my stop finally came. At least the next bus that I took to Ngee Ann Poly didn't have aircon nor cockroaches.

Whos the real culprit?I see no point pest control come to depot every night do maintenance if some goondoos simply eat,drink and left the leftover beside the seat where no one can easy notice it,Worse if it spill at the fabric seats.Someone also complain at stomp that he saw insect egg which is pest poison that look like some egg.I says its attitude problem,Last week i've just
brainwash two kiddos for eating and spilling one of the hamburgers those goondoos ate.Those goodoos doesn't seem like an uneducated ones more like poly or jc students.Before more lame complain like this pls think carefully the whole picture inside your brain,Its ok that you anti-SMRTB but pls to a certain extend only.Plus they also hired 4-5 cleaners at night simply to double sweep the buses only. -

I only anti-MRT , well , maybe not anymore , since i start to like trains. 
Hmm i got a question . What about those tissue paper that plp blow their snot into? They attract cockroaches as well ? Cuz these litters are the most common sight , followed by food wrappers.
Oh ya, i noticed that they not only double sweep the buses as well , they also mopped the bus with detergent i think. Took TIB725A one morning and i realized that its floor is mopped with some detergent water.
Anyway , if you do know , roaches can be incredibly strong . Once a big roach flew into my room and i sprayed it with alot of insecticide . It ran away quickly , and i lose sight of it . The next morning , my mum found the roach and its still alive and kicking.
So maybe , SMRT can use a pesticide thats specially formulated to kill roaches effectively ? Cuz i noe that some insecticide aren't strong enough to kill them , altho those insecticide used in fogging are surprisingly strong enough to kill them. -
And the thing is that , i dont mind if a bus is infested with roaches , i can just kill them with a step . But the thing is that , if alot of buses are infested with roaches as well , its beginning to look like a problem , dont you think so?

Cockroaches will come to any buses @ Depot at night,Worse if someone spill the food and the driver too late to sweep.For my style if happen i saw cockroaches during sweeping i will just kill them and swept away outside.

And wearing slippers will come in handy.Originally posted by carbikebus:Cockroaches will come to any buses @ Depot at night,Worse if someone spill the food and the driver too late to sweep.For my style if happen i saw cockroaches during sweeping i will just kill them and swept away outside.
Oh btw , i realise that the roach seen by me , are black in colour , in contrast with dark brown colour for the common roach, the German roach. Different species eh? -

when u encounter cocokroach the best is not to crush or kill it.. it will give out germs....

So what do you improvise? Pick it up and throw it outside LIVE?Originally posted by patdog112:when u encounter cocokroach the best is not to crush or kill it.. it will give out germs.... Maybe killing it does release germs , but as long as theres no human contact with the affected area , your health wont be at risk. -
leave it alone..?
