I share the air conditioner and heating vents with all of the rooms in this home complex, but the manager sets the control unit to about 80 degrees year-round and we all get the same temperature and air.
That didn’t bother myself and others until I started noticing roaches coming out of our duct work; I told the manager right away and he checked our home and didn’t find our home to be the source of the bugs… He then checked the apartments near mine and found the culprit… One of our neighbors keeps their house filthy dirty and it is infested with roaches. Because of the shared ductwork, the bugs just crawl from one home to the next and they are start to infest the entire building, now the whole home complex has to be fumigated. Once that is taken care of, I absolutely want to know what I can do to keep bugs from getting in from other apartments back into our apartment. I doubt truly much if a screen would labor over the vent covers but it might be better than nothing, maybe I could also use some sort of bug trap or bait near the vent options too. I do like living in this home complex, or at least I did like living here. Now I’m not so sure. I might have to find a modern home that has its own HVAC idea and does not share duct labor with the adjoining apartments. The thought of nasty roaches crawling around our possessions absolutely grosses myself and others out! I can not have that.
