WATER BUGS HELP
Okay so for background I live in Virginia Beach, have lived in my home since I was a small child, it's very old , lots of holes in walls, lots of cracks probably more than I can even count around the house.
For the past week I've seen about 5 HUGE roaches, oriental and American. These are about the size of BIC LIGHTERS! I typically get some water bugs when it rains due to the area, but these are constant now and every single night seeing multiple. The issue is I'm a minor who lives in a home with dead beats who don't want to do anything about the cracks / openings for them getting in.
The main issue for me is that I have a crippling fear of them and involuntarily scream, feel dizzy and start sweating when I see one. I've been getting 0 sleep and have been absolutely restless and haven't been able to get more than 2 hours of solid sleep per night and once I'm up I am frantically checking each crevice and wall.
It's affected my mental health so heavily that I haven't been able to sleep or go into certain parts of the house. I'm afraid of my own room, the stairs , the bathroom and even going outside.
How can I help this without covering things? Is that even possible? I could cover some things but I won't be able to cover every hole in my house without the help of an adult someone PLEASE help it's ruining my metal health and life .
