We all know the famous strap line for Roach Motels
traps:
"Roaches Check In But They Don't Check Out". (see link)
This is all well and good, but you seldom see them
actually
checking in. Roach Motel Bonsai Tree House solves this
problem.
As the name suggests, it's a Roach Motel that
comes
positioned in the midst of the branches of a Bonsai Tree.
A
little ladder facilitates the ascent of the hapless
creatures
into their new residence, and final resting place.
Inevitable delux version features a battery driven fake
neon sign.

Can we have a grand lobby with a transparent ceiling
and a roach at a little desk? |
|
|
For the life of me, I cannot figure out what--if any--
difference the bonsai tree makes to the roaches...or
me. We see them climbing the tree? Is that it? And, I
really didn't know that we *wanted* to see them at
all, except dead. |

Still, all in all, how could one withhold a bun from
such a guileless-sounding idea to kill the little
bastards? [+] |

There should be live music in the ballroom ... maybe The Beetles ? |
|
|
Maybe the Wiggles would be better, [8/7]. They were once a band called "The Cockroaches" |

Uh oh, design flaw; roaches are not attracted to light.
Scared off by it, in my experience. |
|
|
I'm sure that the dim glow of a fake flickering neon will be no deterrent, when measured against the seducing aromas wafting from the interior confines of the little motel in the trees. |

Ooh, I missed that bit. Sounds nice. |
|
|
Have you checked on how many legs you have recently? |
|
|
I keep an eye on such things, yes. But, "seducing
aromas wafting...." might attract a lot more than
roaches. |
|
|
Exactly how does the bonsai come into this? |
