Yuk! Roaches inside TV

[kevinm34232]

I picked up a TV yesterday off Craigslist, opened it up today and saw a damn roach running on the power supply. He looked like he was in a maze as he dodged diodes and caps. He ran down into the screen before I can get him.

This TV is now baking out in the hot FL sun hoping to burn them out. Anyone know a solution for getting rid of these without damaging anything?

Burn the house down. Claim on the insurance it was an accident.

Ok more seriously it's probably in there because it's warm or damp so try removing both of those conditions. We don't have many roaches in this country, but most insects are similar.

Oh, and contact the seller to negotiate biohazard cleanup costs. If they refuse, kindly return the roach to their possession.
