Which floor do you live on? Is your unit close to garbage room?

The closer you are to the ground or garbage room, the higher chances of having roaches. If you're far from both & you cover all the drains properly, there should be no roaches, fingers crossed. Of course, neighbors do play a role. If the adjacent units have an infestation, you're SOL


You can also complain to management and have pest control on the common area such as garbage room

If you do not have small children and is not sensitive towards pest control chemicals, you can ask pest control to come. You need to do it every few months I think.

Look at 1:11 mark onwards

Also if you or your neighbors don't seal the garbage bag properly, that is basically inviting roaches to come. I tie up my garbage bags either with a rubber band or string. For food wastes, I use two garbage bags (smaller ones). Unless it's too little, I ensure that I clear my garbage bin everyday after dinner (I use S size garbage bags because I want to have minimal garbage at any time).

Do these & I guess you can try the pest control that I have mentioned above.
