The blanks in the verse below can be filled in with five words which are anagrams:

Quaint _ _ _ _ _ this hotel supplies,
I speak of roaches, _ _ _ _ _ , and flies.
They don't appear on the bill,
You slap and _ _ _ _ _ , they're with you still!
At _ _ _ _ _ each guest _ _ _ _ _ pained screams,
That ought to plague the owner's dreams.
