yea they are cleanest...when my mom brought them home i was still at school, this was last spring, they died late august...i had some pretty big ones too. but i didn't know she brought them home so i freaked out when she said i had cock roaches in my room...but i grew to liking them in my room...it was cool hearing them hiss and what not.
my six year old calls cockroaches, CROACH ROCKAS! took me forever to figure what the hell she was talking about. anyways-yup cockroaches are pretty nasty. especially the real big ones. I have watched fear factor too, those big madascar (SP-too lazy to scroll up) are about gross. Havent some of the contestants said that they were getting bitten by them on some of the stunts?
I feel ya. I used to live in Indiana. I kept my doors an windows open all the time and there wasn't ONE bug. Well, I'm back in Texas now and there are quite a few cockroaches here. I see them crawling around once in a while, and I usually let them be, but sometimes I grab a shoe and smash em. (most effective way of dealing with them IMO) But since they don't bite, I don't really care about them. Hang in there.
we have cockroaches in our flat and have invented a gas chamber to deal with them. Its the top of a coke bottl with the lid still on it. Trap the cockroach underneath it, tak off the lid, spray in a little poison and put the lid back on. It kills them and you don't have to breath in the neuro toxin. Also, don't smash them. then their eggs hatch anyway.
eek! cockroaches are sooo nasty! i live in texas too, so i get them a lot... but try living in hawaii!!! i used to live there, and the roaches there are much bigger, and fly, and are just everywhere! eeeeehehehkkkkk.... i used to freak out all the time.... ugh... just thinking about it gives me the heebiejeebies,,,,
Hey Crystal, this is the ticket.. I used to live there, I know, trust me. And if you see one, there are thousands..... And palmetto bugs - a nice way of saying big, gross, flying cockroaches!!!!!!!!
