All Shoprites are distributed by their own distribution co-op, Wakefern. The Fern family is originally Jewish but at this point may not be due to possible intermarriage. Fern is not their original name (the original is the same as mine-they are distant relatives). EIther way, from the various lists it seems that Wakefern is currently minority Jewish owned. THe current executive team has one Jewsih sounding name in Allison Berger, SVP and GC.
Wakefern sells their chametz through R'  Teitz of Elizabeth, so I'd say that Shoprite brand chametz was either at the Saker-owned store on Pesach or at Wakefern which sells their chametz.  Does Wakefern act as their distributor for the national brands too? I didn't know that.

what about chometz that wakefern (or any other non religious company) buys on Pesach itself?

Iirc r teitz sells it for them/ they don't ask him to sell..
and r Moshe holds this is not effective

Or something like that..

Thanks. Anyone know which of the larger Shuls are sign friendly? I don't think forest park had a place for signs last time I looked. Any others? Thanks.

Depending on the area it may be common - ask your neighbors. Go with an exterminator

Very common in Lakewood NJ basements imho.
The exterminators chemicals are much more dangerous...

Friend of mine living in a basement had this done right before pesach. Is this something the landlord should pay for, or the tenant? He mentioned to his landlord that he was calling an exterminator, but he didn't offer to deduct it from rent.
Btw, I believe he used bugaboo for like $100.

Well if your tenant came to inform you that he was calling an exterminator would you offer to pay for it?

No, I wouldn't. But if my tenant called me and asked me to take care of it of course I would. It's the landlord's responsibility

There's a spray- don't remember what it's called but it's a big white bottle with a red label and it has a hose and an electric sprayer and costs around $15 in Lowes - that an exterminator told me to use. He told me that he used to use it and it works great. Didn't tell me specifically about centipeeds but told me overall. The main reason to hire an exterminator IMO is because they can be more thorough because they "see with exterminator eyes" and will spray places that you might miss.
