Every once in a while I would see roach in the kitchen.
I keep out roach bait.
So in a few days no more roaches.
I found out where they were coming from. My Mailbox. I got the mail
today and there was a roach in there. I am guessing, instead of
climbing the mailbox and hitching a ride into the house, the trip
started from the post office.

Wow. Check a little more, ask your neighbors if they have the same
problem, and then tell the post office.

Decades ago I worked in a hardware store, Often roaches would be in
cartons received. The owner (of the store, not the roaches ;-) ) told me
they love the glue they sealed cartons with.
Yes, ask your neighbors if they see the same thing to see if they are
coming from the PO or if the locals are just invading your box for the
envelope glue.

Never keep a roach in the mailbox, the mailman may turn you in. Same with
guys that put a roach in the glove box and get stopped for a minor violation
and the cop spots it. . And don't carry a roach clip with you.

I have a roach clip on the arm band thingy for reaching into My
computer,,occasionally I pinch My GF with it,lucky Me I found one that
likes that action..
Roaches are like any other critter,,If they do'nt eat they leave or
die..I hope the OP is'nt gettin mail from Texas,,I saw a roach on a
flatroof there that musta been 3" long and 1" wide! A group of Em
could probably kill a cat!(Fat Freddies' Cat maybe?) Maybe there's
something in the air in Houston that made em grow so big..
