Cockroaches, mice and ghekho's

So I was just mentioning to someone over dinner how surprised I was that I hadn't seen any creepy crawlie things in our house...spoke too soon! The very next day a cockroach the length of my index finger decided to linger at our kitchen door, dealt with that, then walked into our pantry to spot a mouse jump out of our rice, went downstairs and jumped again at a scurry of a ghekho – done mind them at all though – they eat other nasty things like mozzies.
