Fuck Household Cockroaches

Cockroaches are bros. If I see a roach around my house I'll pick em up and throw them outside on the lawn.
Fuck those tiny infesting fuckers though.

Literally nothing worse than roaches. Absolutely disgusting and they got big ol guts that get all over the wall when you smash em. If im not in a rush to kill one i like to catch them inside a box and tape it shut and throw it in a fire

Does anyone know if house centipedes take down roaches? House centipedes are some creepy fucker but i dont kill em bc they eat other bugs and i aussume that includes roaches

Release some mantises in your house, they'll solve all your problems

If you still have a mantis problem that just means you arent releasing enough mantises.

I see cockroaches more as hardy, ultra efficient beetles, than disgusting hellspawn vermin. They honestly deserve about half or a little less of the reputation they have. Catching a disease from them is rare, and they are a pretty cool animal if you read up on them.

Its rare to see someone actually appreciate cockroaches that arent absolute insect fanatic zealots
What are some interesting things about them? Just out of curiosity

For one, they taxonomically belong to an ancient order. They are a hardy bunch of fuckers. They are "living fossils". They have also adapted to almost every climate zone on earth. They can be found everywhere, from the arctic to the tropics.
They are social too, and are close relatives to the termites. Plus, they are not parasitic to humans. So there is not much reason other than "eew a roach", to hate them. They are opportunistic little machines of evolution that can thrive everywhere.
And even more so than other invertebrates, they can lose a lot of body mass before their systems stop kickin'.

Man, I'm a bug fanatic and I just can't get past the visceral grossout that roaches give me. It's something about how fast they are combined with how useless they flail their legs and antenna around. They move like lightning fast corpses on marionette strings. Ick.

sincere thanks for that
I already love the common house centipede (scutigera) but I'd be extremely happy with these giant ones in the house (if that's their habitat).
check @ 0:50, their legs can fucking curl like tentacles - they're comicbook superhero tier
