Cockroaches have many redundant systems in their bodies. They have several gangulia which are like brains, which is why they can live for awhile withour their heads (they do starve to death eventually in about a week). I belive they have several sets of "lungs" and a double digestion system. Also insects have hemolymph instead of blood, this fuild contains most of the seperate fuilds found with in higher systems (like blood, lypmh, digestive fuilds, immunio fluids) and some have open circulorty systems which means no heart and no blood vessles, so they can be hard to kill. Try steping on it agin and in several diffrent areas to ensure that the critial biological systems have been damaged. Also Cockraoches can injest some amounts of radioactive material, however direct exposure to a nuclear explosion will kill them, if not from the radiation then from the heat or rapid change in atomshperic compostion. So a cockroach can surive a nuclear blast but under much the same cirmstances in which a human could surive.

Cockroach in bare ft! i might say snails have been worse than the two, however (I trod on one with footwear on and that i ought to sense the shell crunch by using the only!) Slugs - no longer that undesirable, I trod on one barefoot. It grow to be darkish and once I trod on it, i assumed 'eeh, in all likelihood in basic terms a patch of dirt'. next morning, I wakened and observed that it grow to be a slug XD

Just to mess with humans heads. They like to watch us think " haaaa! i got you you damn bug" then they come back to life and are laughing their butts off all the way back to tell their friends they just made a human look like an idiot.

You got to step on them and then twist. Make some guts. That should kill them. Then again, they did survive when the dinosaurs didn't. Hmmm, good luck.

You have to cut off their heads and burn them to actually kill them. LOL
Cockroaches are the only thing that the NUKE won't kill when some idiot finally puts his finger on the button somewhere.
Filthy, dirty, nasty, foul, stinky roaches. UGH Can't stand the little buggers.

Cause a roach's body is its brain. So of you say, cut its head off, it will be alive for a month or so before dying of hunger.

I don't bother stepping, I just keep my raid nearby and spray it to death, it doesn't take long, just a couple of seconds.
