yeah, you have tordenkakerlak!
According to Wikipedia, the only kakerlakker that can survive outside in Norway are markkakerlakker (which is a great word!), and they don't thrive inside. Other kakerlakker may be imported, but it doesn't seem to be a big problem in Norway. And I have never had any in my flats.

it was a mythic being in an old spiderman album, where he got stuck in norway and tangled into some old norse god/inner journey kind of a magical trip. the tordenkakerlak was some kind of manifestation of his own fears (or somnething like that), which he could not defeat.
it was more than 20 years ago so I'm not exactly sure how it went, but that's the story anyway. 🙂

Are you obsessive/compulsive? Got any strange habits that might land you in an institution someday?
Please share your sickness. Together, we can work through this.
