Dubia Roaches - And your wife!

[kgallego]

I always find this subject so humorous - Convincing your wife/husband to let you keep roaches in the house.

This thread is to hear everyones funny stories, so lets hear them!

Here's mine: I kept them in the garage until it got cold. Then I brought them in the house and when my wife came home and saw the bin under my vivarium she said, "Um...what are the roaches doing in the house?!?" I convinced her that it was too cold in the garage and they would only be there for a couple days. They've been in the house for almost a year now with no issues. But she still hates them, just as long as they stay where they're supposed to be. I have found a couple escapees, but she hasn't found any - luckily!

Took me ages to convince the other half to have them! Lots an lost of sucking up to her lol. She finally let me have them so I started a colony

She really wasn't keen and even woke up at night and had to read up on them at like 3am lol. After all the sucking up not one of my lizards eat them!

All I get is I told you so....you never listen haha
