Residents of a neighborhood in Ewa Beach, Hawaii have been dealing with a massive bug invasion for the past month. An entomologist identified the bugs as pacific beetle roaches. Dondra Ozaki has lived in the neighborhood, which is near an empty lot, for 12 years and has no idea why there was a sudden infestation saying that thousands of the roaches come every night. Ozaki has hired an exterminator and also sprays her yard with pesticides daily to deter the bugs. Most of the homes near the empty lot have the same roach problems. A spokesperson for the developers, Gentry Homes, said that they hired a pest control company to treat the area and they are working with the homeowners and pest control company to resolve the issue.

That's not so unusual, I lived in Kaneohe for several years, my son was born there & I've been to Ewa Beach ... cockroaches are a way of life in the islands and you get area infestations like this from time-to-time ... I used to bug-bomb my car, the cockroaches used to get so bad, .

, not a day goes by I don't ask myself the very same question ... basically the cost-of-living, we would have been renters the rest of our lives and pretty much lived check-to-check, which was all Ok with me because we were in Hawaii, but my wife(ex) was an island girl and wanted to own a house & live in the big city. If I only knew then what I know now, I'd be 'kamaaina', still there, eating plate-lunch, sleeping on the beach, fishing ... you know da' kine, .
