Brown banded cockroach (infestation?)

Hi everyone. I live in North Queensland Australia. Unfortunately I was about to be ready for bed when I shined my flashlight and found 2 brown banded cockroaches on the wall. I ended up finding multiple more in my room after doing a quick search. They were just out and about.

I’ve quickly cleaned up my room of any cups or rubbish. Tomorrow I will vacuum everywhere and do a proper clean up.

The first time I’d seen them, I had originally found a lamp which they’d managed to make a home inside of, and removed the lamp from my house. I thought this would remove the problem but clearly not.

How bad is my issue? What can I do? How best can I get rid of these roaches? I live in Queensland (humid) in a sharehouse, so really there is only so much I can do, but can I at least make sure they aren’t in my bedroom?

Urgent: Help this lizard

Hey everyone, I found an injured lizard in my front garden and need urgent help knowing how to nurse him back to health! Or if that’s possible.

Symptoms:
Seems like he can’t move at all and I’m not sure if that’s from the injuries or weakness?
His head shakes that’s the main movement he makes if he moves at all
Seems like he has a bit of injury to his skin on top.

If you can let me know how to best help him, I’m happy to make a run to the store and everything for him!

Lice vs book lice

Hey everyone, just wanted to ask how I can know whether this is book lice or normal lice. I suppose check my scalp is an answer but just posting here for general advice.

Thank you all.

Is this a bed bug?

I know these aren’t the best pictures, but from what you can see, is this a bed bug? It’s fairly small vs what I think they usually are. But I’ve been very paranoid recently, no severe biting and the bites I get are usually isolated, but I’m wondering if I may have caught one early?
