It's 3:59 p.m. and I've already had lunch. Temperature's about 33 degrees celcius, though it doesn't really feel like it. Just a normal day, trying to keep up.
This morning while working, I noticed a cockroach inside my power bank. I tried to pull it out, but it went back in. Second time, same thing, and now I can't see it at all.
I'm kind of scared something might happen to to my powerbank. I really don't know what to do, so I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to get this roach out.
. That's the update for now. Hope you're having

The roach will eventually emerge since there is nothing to eat there.

Place your powerbank away from things that will trigger the roach to go back insde. Maybe somewhere on a lit table? because roaches like the dark... Also, if you have some Cleenex Wipes you might want to consider wiping it to your powerbank because Roaches don't like cleaning scents. Also please don't plug anything on your powerbank cos it might eletrecute the cockroach and might ruin the internal functions of your device.

@Wrexxo Just try to check on your powerbank and don't plug any devices on it yet not until you make sure that the roach is not there anymore.
