I hope it does not take that long! I hate them! But I've been told they are a big problem in this building. I've been doing some research on ways to get rid of them and putting them into practice. I clean my sinks each night and make sure they are dry and plug them up as well as the tub. They say they can only go a week without water and if they can't find any here they will go elsewhere to find it.

I also found out that they don't like certain smells, such as mint, their least favorite, and a few others so I have bought those scents to use in my wax burner. I'm not sure if that is working, but my apartment smells really good.

As for the Internet, it is back but still not as fast as it should be. I've been on the phone with them so much I feel as though I know all of them by name, lol. They had to build me a new circuit because the lines were so old but that didn't fix it. So I need to call them again. I think the next step is to have a tech come out and put a new line put in which will cost me $95 but they break it up over 3 months. However, they have refunded me so much money right now that I will only need to pay them about $45 for the tech. There is also a new modem out that I don't have so I am going to upgrade to that. Hopefully after all of that I will have my speed bad. Diane
