Re: What do you eat at work?
I usually eat protein bars. I can't really bring actual food because I have found small roaches in our locker room!! Anything I bring is small enough to keep in my purse and wrapped up
Re: What do you eat at work?
Gross!
I'd bring in a can of roach spray, or diatemacous earth. I have it for ants, it's in a can w/pointy tip. You can put it around your things (IDK if you leave stuff out or what).
Be careful you don't bring any home! It's best if they d exterminate, but they may not.
As far as snacks, I also like small, portable snacks

Boric acid can be found naturally in many fruits and other plants. The stuff you’ll be using is produced from borax mined from mineral deposits. While highly toxic to cockroaches and other insects, boric acid is fairly harmless to humans and pets when used accordingly.
Roaches crawl through the boric acid powder and the tiny particles cling on to their bodies. When they clean their bodies by licking themselves clean, they ingest the boric acid (which acts as a stomach poison). They die shortly after.
Since roaches are not very picky eaters, the roaches killed from the poison is eaten and the cycle continues. It also sticks on to food dragged through it. When the food is brought back for other roaches to eat, they all feast on the poison.

Re: What do you eat at work?
I remember one time I hadn't finished my nuggets from Chick fil a. I left them in my locker for about 30 min. Came back before going on the floor to finish my food and found a roach right next to my bag. I don't eat there anymore lol. Lots of girls had mentioned the infestation but I had never actually seen it
Re: What do you eat at work?
Maybe get some sealable containers.
Re: What do you eat at work?
Thanks, Pokey Pokes!
Forgot about boric acid..
I heard baking soda works, but never tried it.
Re: What do you eat at work?
If I recall, boric acid is cheap

OMG!!!! I used to clean the dressing room at my home club and noticed it smelled and looked much better after a cleaning. We didn't have roaches but it was an older building so unfortunately those are harder to keep clean.
Most bars also restrict where food is served, either to comply with ordinance or just avoid food trash being left there and attracting vermin.
Re: What do you eat at work?
Wow I come back to an interesting topic . I am sorry there are roaches in your club. I hear all the above mentioned solutions help. I've used diamatecious earth for fleas and it worked ok. But hot water and soap did a way better job.
Re: What do you eat at work?
Ps: I've thought about smaller foods and portable ones but I need something crunchy for when I'm stressing out .
Re: What do you eat at work?
How about fruit? Or almonds/mixed nuts? You can find to-go peanut butter packs and eat it with celery, apples, bananas, etc. Careful with things like protein bars. A lot of them are pure sugar and will spike your blood sugar leading to an eventual crash. Before work try to eat a meal with a mix of protein, vegetables, and carbohydrates.
