Cockroach Advice

Just moved to Athens from Scotland where cockroaches are pretty rare so not very clued up on them. I have spotted several outside the foyer and some dead ones inside the foyer of our new apartment (we are renting)

Done a little research and apparently they’re common in summer here, which I can handle! however I’m mostly anxious they get into my apartment (4th floor) I’ve checked for any entrance holes and covered them, I sweep and clean everyday and take out the trash. Placed some raid traps on the balcony. Is this enough? 😬

Also, I have some raid spray and gel bait, should I use it in the apartment even though I haven’t seen them in there yet? And lastly, could I spray raid in the foyer? I’m worried about harming the pets in the building and the cats outside. The building was last treated for pests in May this year.

I used to live in Bangkok so used to seeing them around and know they are part of live in a big hot city! Just seeking advice on preventing them in the apartment! Thanks!

Is it normal to see a “head lease”?

About to sign a lease on a property that I have viewed via video and in person.
My employer wanted to see an agreement between the company and the owner to ensure they had the right to lease the apartment to us and they provided a version in Greek which wasn’t signed which has raised some red flags. I didnt even know this was a thing!
