Question:

I have asked a few friends about bugs they may have in their basement. I think i have an over abundance of them. little brown ones and centapedes. I have a bathroom that is off the floor about 6 inches and i think they are having a hay day down there. is it normal to have bugs?(i dont think so) could it be my bathroom? how do i get rid of them?

Answer:

Capture a few of each different kind in a bottle and take it to your local nursery. They'll tell you what they are and how to get rid of them.

In the interests of retaining credibility that I worked several decades to establish and in fairness to all, I don’t comment on various (building, electrical, plumbing) codes, brand-specific products, recommend prices, people nor companies for various projects.

Remember, even if you don’t do your own work around the house have to hire someone, you put yourself at a great advantage when you can intelligently discuss a project with the various trades people.
