Are you saying that some Banglas had dumped their Indon girl friend in the water tank again?. No, most likey the sewerage system is extremely filthy & had not been cleaned for years. The TC had been lazy or do not have enough funds, maybe loosing it on some long, long, long term investments.

Your toilet must be very dirty, or the building in which your home is located is very dirty. First scrub your toilet with bleach, the commercial ones you find at the supermarket, then detergent & lastly dettol or equivalent. The building, you need the TC to do it.

that's thousand legged worm la

Yes, this looks like the type of worm infestation that plagued almost the entire west part of Pasir Ris way back in 1993 to 2000. It sort of 'pop' when you step on it, due to their hard crusty exterior, it's certainly not a earthworm although the resemblance is close. I doubt any fish will eat that.

A check to the link of that pic reveals it's a millipede.

Pour some Dettol into your toilet bowl, water basin and rubbin bin.

Joe how you deal with the snakes?.... I once freaked out when I saw a green coloured snake slithering around my mom in law's garden... KNN, I screamed in fright and spilled my coffee... In the end the maid drove out the snake by using a bamboo pole... My mom in law's neighbour once found a 2m python relaxing inside her living room...

My toilet i think cleaner than most malls' in SG :p. Must be my estate. I had to seal my rubbish chute completely because of cockroaches in the chute system. 2 months after complete reno, my new kitchen cabinet was infested with cockroaches, which came through the chute. Whenever TC fogs the chute (i had to email them to remind them), dead cockroaches can be seen everywhere at void deck.

The building lagi best; my neighbour above asked if I had a machine in my house, as his living room floor vibrates now and then. THen we realized it's because we turned on our ceiling fan!

Bleach is good enough, it get rid of algae also....

I don't claim to be expert but Dettol served me well for decades. I do believe the chemical and smell in Dettol deters insects from coming in. The formula can't be too strong of course, otherwise it'd be poisonously harmful to humans too. Anyway, there's always the occasional cockroach or lizard. If it runs, I'll let it run. If not, I'll kill it, by hand. Nothing so difficult. Just smack it and later wash hand with soap.

Thanks. Maybe will try bleaching the cracks too. Once i found one sliding in and out of a small hole in between the wall tiles!

 

[Unrepented]

Bleach will not help.

Try pouring battery water, dont keena your hands or clothes though.

1. Maybe there is a bird nest somewhere.

2. There may be small crevices in the walls or flooring and they breed, if so its very difficult to get rid of all of them.

Make sure your toilet is airy too, hot water (humid+ moist) + no ventilations breeds them, sealed the cracks with putty if possible bah....
