Fortunately I’ve found a solution. I’ve been slapped on Reddit for misinformation, but anecdotally I can say with 100% certainty that what I’ve done worked in multiple apartments in separate buildings.
4 of those blower kerosene heaters. Blast those bastards until it’s just hot enough that it don’t melt your records and bam, problem solved.
Bedbugs are worse, but roaches are harder to beat when you’ve gotta get everyone on board.
Some people just consider living with them a part of normal life and they don’t even care.

Makes sense because that’s how some places treat for bed bugs. The pest control place I worked at would partner with another company who did heat treatments on bed bugs for more intense invasions - think homeless shelters that are infested with them.
The issue with heat treatments is that in order to get it hot enough to kill them completely, you end up taking a lot of stuff out of the apartment/room.
I hated going over the lists with people on how to prep for bed bug treatments cause I had to basically ask them about everything in their home in case it would catch fire or just melt.
