I have never heard of certain things that occur in the south until I started living there. I never knew that certain southern foods such as grits were such a popular hit. This is because where I used to live up north, there would never be grits in any of the restaurants. I felt somewhat silly when I asked one of my new friends when we went out to breakfast what grits were. Not only are there different types of food, but there is also different types of bugs. There are many different types of spiders and even cockroaches. I have never seen a cockroach before where I lived but that could be mainly because the climate is so cold. I had to call my HVAC technician multiple times to see if there were ways that I could keep out a type of cockroach from living out of my air ducts. It is so disgusting but my HVAC technician has told me that it is pretty popular where I live since they like to nest in the trees that hover over my house. They will find ways into my home and creep into the air ducts. They prefer the air ducts because it is dark and cool in there since I run my air conditioning unit almost all year. My HVAC technician also told me that I could switch out the air registers so that it is somewhat harder for the bugs to get into but if I wanted to remove it entirely I should call the pest control immediately.
