Hi Sue!
 SM> Yes. I live in northern Maine. In fact our town is the most northern

 SM> I don't know where they nest. I just see one here, and one there. In
 SM> weird places. Like a drawer, on the couch, in the sink, on the floor.
 SM> Only one at a time though. I'm afraid I won't be able to kill them

 SM> fall now!!! Sure hope something works!
Those buggers like small dark places.  I've heard that they'll crawl into 
corrogated carboard to hide as well.  So.. come spring, you could probably 
lay some of that around in the places you see them, then carefully pick up 
the cardboard and BURN them!    or throw them in soapy water.
