We have vacuumed them up and hour later there all over the place again....the walls, the ceiling and everywhere!!! It's like they almost come out of the concrete! I have put out sticky pads to catch some of them but I have so many I have to change out daily. Any suggestions? Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks!

Yes. This is my third summer here and first time I've seen them. They were really bad on the lanai for more than a month; ortho home defense didn't really deter them unless I soaked their body. It was like a bad science fiction movie and I was becoming obsessed with them. I am starting to make headway as I go out every day and spray the little buggers and then sweep them up. One or two will make it inside every day and I can easily crush them as they are so slow. I have a very clean, neat lawn and no beds/mulch/etc by the lanai. Hope next year is better.
