How common are these in your country? And I'm talking

I have never seen a single one in my entire life.

How large are they?

Canada has them I'm sure but I have never actually seen one. We do have may beetles (pic) in the Spring sometimes and they look similar.

>>77921099
It can very.

They can be as small as ants, and the small ones are usually quite circular.

Then you have the very narrow long ones that are 3cm.

Waterbugs on the other hand are fucking enormous. They're mega-roaches that are also quite common, and those can get to around 8 cm.

>>77921154

>>77921042
A lot of them appear here when rain.

>>77921179
This isn't reddit, you don't need to correct yourself, faglord

>>77921042
They are fucking everywhere around June - September.

i've never seen one in my house

>>77921042
Never seen one.

Never seen even one, no sir

>>77921042
German cockroaches are fucking impossible to get rid of, not even gassing them works
only way to get rid of them is to burn the house down

Why do you use roach spray? Too afraid to touch them?

Never seen a roach

>>77921792
Why the fuck would I touch them?

>>77921922
What part of the country do you live in? I'm in western PA and I'm not lying about never seeing a cockroach.

>>77921971
NYC

>>77921992
Well that explains it why you've seen them

used to be common, they briefly disappeared so people even began to joke of them as of an endangered species but recently they began to appear again albeit they are pretty rare nowadays

>>77921922
Do you think everyone lives in an infested city?

>>77921922
To kill them

>>77922034
Years ago some russian here on /int/ said to me that there was some kind of mass migration of cockroaches for unknown reasons, and they left Russia for good. Is it true?

>>77921222
how do people that hate reddit always know a lot of that site? really makes you think

My building is full of pests.

Mice, roaches, bed bugs, you name it.

On the plus side, none of them really "do" anything. The mice just come for the leaky tap (water) and get promptly eaten by the cats, the roaches just kind of chill by the toaster and run away in the light, and the bed bugs...well...they're a bit annoying. At least their bites aren't itchy.

Never seen one in real life, I don't think they're common in Britain/(europe??)

>>77922117
yes they almost disappeared for a few years, i am not sure about the reasons, but recently people report they began to meet them again, albeit they are much rarer nowadays

My cat eats them, I'm always worried that he might get dick because of that but he likes to eat them all the time.

OP is a motherfucker with fucking infestation in his home.
I'm not saying you will never see a roach here, but 3 fucking bottles in a week, one bottle a year is more like it maybe.

NYC too here, brooklyn specifically. You literally have a nest in your house. Stop leaving food out.

>>77923102
I don't think eating spiders will make your cat grow a dick.

never seen one

We get some as big as beetles that fly.
Fuck roaches buy a cat or two and you will never see a live one.

>>77921154
Could you take the waterbugs back, America? They started appearing around these parts about 10 years ago and now unless you close your windows at night during the summer one of those fuckers will walk in and say hello. Flying roaches are just wrong, man.

>Massachusetts
Never seen them

>Florida
Common as fuck - basically can't do anything about it - don't leave food out, etc.

>North Carolina
Never seen one here either - I do live in the mountains though so far less warm.

>>77921042
I have never seen one

>>77921042
Outside the house, my cat just smacks them dead and I sweep them later.

>>77921042

All over the place in southeast Texas. I've had probably 10 or so in my house in my lifetime but they're all over the place outside.

>>77921042
Everywhere.
I think Japanese cockroaches are the most disgusting ones.

>>77924187
All Japanese are cockroaches.

>he doesn't have palmetto bugs in his everything
Floridian moms scare their kids into cleaning by saying if you don't the palmetto bugs will lay eggs in your orificies

>>77921042

>>77924290
Nice

>>77921042
Just once in my lifetime, because an old lady was dead in the building and nobody noticed for 3 month until the smell was so strong outside of her appartment peopel had to go and see what was up

>>77922956
Even cockroaches want to escape Russia

>>77924207
>t. an illegal immigrant a.k.a cockroach

>>77924345
And now the Russian cockroaches have all come here
>>77924290

>>77921042
>And I'm talking about the insect, not Turks
So you mean Koreans?
I see a lot of them around here.

vancouver

never seen one in the city but could probably find some if i went to the most sketch parts of town.

>>77924207
Why are American posters so aggressive all the time? You should be range banned desu

>>77924187
>I think Japanese cockroaches are the most disgusting ones.
Nah, Americanas are the worst ones. They are way faster, can fly, are bigger, and look uglier in general. A house I used to live in was full to the brim with 3 (probably closer to 2.5, but they can be really big) inch americanas, and one time when I went to the kitchen, there were 2 of those huge beasts flying.

>>77924381
We should have let the soviets wipe your kind out.

Can't remember the last time I saw one.

I coexist with them. They don't even hide from me anymore.

>>77921042
cock roaches are really cool to study and learn about, insects in general actually, but holy fuck they're disgusting and everywhere

>8 cm
I saw only one (around 3 cm) in 2017 and i emptied a can of roach spray and cleaned the whole house twice just in case.And last one before that was at a friends house where i burned it with a lighter and an axe spray. If i saw an 8cm one id move out

>There are many cockroaches in NYC...

we call them lebbos
they're bloody everywhere here in sydney

>>77921042
if you don't drop foods, they won't appear.
but still they show up, you need to fix the pipe

Well there's about a few million of them here and they usually run kwik-e-marts or work in call centers.

I have never seen one in my life

>>77921042
even today they are making inroads into Japan. besides, it's a bloody pain to tell them from Japanese.

I found one in my bathroom just an hour ago.

They don't live in Britain

There are literally no dangerous animals or insects in the UK

God's country boys

Had the small ones in my house at one point, haven't seen them again for years though.

I'm sure they're around but mostly around big cities

>>77921042
rarely seen them, am terrified of them and have horrible memories of finding them in my room underneath discarded pieces of paper, folders etc.

They're common, I let spiders and other natural predators in my house to hunt them, really effective I must say, I have only seen a couple of small ones since I stopped killing other insects.

>>77921042
My commie block was full with old people and some of them were dirty cunts so we got roaches coming through any available pipe. We had water pipes for the heaters that we cut since we got central heating, sometimes they came through those.

Saw like one a week or so, mostly in the bathroom. One year was particulalry worse bscause of one of the neighbors. They eventually disappeared, but I had one coke through the window while flying, scared the shit out of me since I never saw them fly.

I've never seen one. I think they are pretty rare.

>>77923102

There are more cockroaches than there are chickens on the planet

>>77921042
I have never seen one and couldn't live anywhere they were located. I absolutely couldn't.

Never seen one like that in a house. Only cockroach I've seen was a wood cockroach once when I broke open a log

>>77921042
Saw one a month ago. Before that saw one a decade ago in Corfu

I used Maxforce to eliminate them in my workplace shower room.

It was quite effective(In a month, roaches are disappeared.)

iirc i saw this phrase https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/So_Long,_and_Thanks_for_All_the_Fish remade as "so long and thanks for all the crumbs" (:

I have them in my apartment, the entire block is infested but I can't move for another year

>>77921042
Dorms are full of them. You don't find them anywhere else though.

They invade us during summer. But as soon as the temperature lowers, they disappear. Much like flies and mosquitoes.

They usually come in summer and they're large. I once tried to kill a lot of them by making chlorine gas.

>>77921042
My island summer house has a few dead roaches every summer that I get there after a long time. The whole island has a roach problem desu, which is not good because I am deathly afraid and disgusted by big crunchy insects.

How common are these in your country?

In Japan, There are them anywhere in mountains and residential areas.

I catch some in the summer but my cats take care of them most of the time.

The first time I saw one was on the Croatian coast, and up north, too, not more than 100km distant from Ljubljana. But I've never seen one here.

>>77921234
I've been looking for that for a while, but can't find it. Guess I will have to order some online.

I saw at least a dozen yesterday, I live on the Mediterranean coast, here it is very normal to see them in summer.

I've never seen one in my life
