My wife grew up very poor, like might not have running water poor.
So her parents were in jail for the umpteenth time and she was staying with her aunt and uncle. They were just as poor, however, the aunt did not care about home cleanliness like my wife’s mother and they had roach infestations like no other. Every electronic shorted out from roach bodies. You could not set a drink or food down or it would be swarmed. It wasn’t only one time either. Each home that these people went to was condemned soon after because of the infestations and unwillingness to clean.
