A local woman shared a candid clip of a shocking insect infestation, which horrified social media users who wondered how she slept.

The clip, shared on Facebook by Funie Mrs'Ambition, garnered massive views, likes, and comments from viewers who reacted with a wave of disgust and urgency, offering advice.

The horrifying video starts with Funie Mrs'Ambition emptying her jeans pockets, which contained a large number of cockroaches. She then pans the camera to a clothing shelf where the cupboard is visibly infested, causing a general reaction of discomfort among viewers.

The infestation forces her to move

The clothes were in the cupboard, and some of the insects were seen crawling on them, which is probably how they entered the jeans. The woman captioned the video, expressing that she simply could not tolerate the living conditions any longer and was moving out of the Sunnyside residence.

"I once slept at a place that had roaches because I was a student and was scared to go knock late at home. I woke up to bites and crawls on my body. I requested ASAP, and as soon as I switched on the  light, the horror." 

User @Kea Shomolekae added:

"Just spray them once cause you're gonna move with them. Go a tshwana (It's the same)."

User @DopeKing Less advised:

"This is so easy to get rid of them for good. Go to Builders Warehouse or Build-It and buy 2-3 fumigation sprays. Set the sprays wth your closet doors open or whatever has doors, open them except ur windows. Make sure you do this while you're not going to be around. When you come back, every crawling bug will be dead, including spiders."
