Your question contains an unverified premise: that cockroaches "survive in a microwave". Before asking "how" something can happen, you first have to verify whether or not it actually happens at all.
If cockroaches don't "survive in a microwave", the question makes no sense. But the ambiguity of the question raises yet more questions:
1. Does "in the microwave" mean anywhere inside the oven, not just the heating chamber?
2. If you mean the heating chamber, is the heat turned on while the cockroaches are in there? If so, what heat setting is it on? For how long? Do cockroaches survive any heat setting for any length of time?
3. Have you experimented with cockroaches yourself, and if so, what combinations of heat settings and times did you use? Which of those combinations killed cockroaches, and which did not?
4. Did your experiment include controls, that is, did you try the same tests on other living things, and how did those results compare with those with the cockroaches?
5. I should have asked this first: where did you get the idea that cockroaches "survive in a microwave"? Have you seen living cockroaches in a microwave, and if so, what part? The outer part of the cabinet, which is shielded from the microwaves, or the interior of the heating chamber? If they were in the shielded part of the microwave, why shouldn't they survive? Unless your microwave is killing things in the house, i.e. outside the shielding, there's no reason why it should kill cockroaches outside the shielding but inside the cabinet.

Althought somewhat irritating which you have "seen" cockroaches survive in a microwave for 5 minutes, the respond interior of reason straightforward. Cockroaches merely don't have plenty beverages, fat, or sugars of their bodies. it particularly is customarily what microwaves heats up. The molecules in those compounds are observed as dipoles, and have an excellent can charge and destructive can charge at the two end (including water). whilst the microwave field hits the water, those molucles attempt to line up which leads to a large variety of action. action leads to warmth on the molecular point. it particularly is yet another excuse that microwaves can look to warmth nutrients from the interior out, because of the fact it impacts the entire merchandise at as quickly as on the molecular point. Our little chum the cockroach merely does no longer have sufficient water, fat, liquid etc., to prepare dinner as rapid as, say, a cup of espresso. do this (and it particularly is fairly much less disgusting than microwaving cockroaches): Microwave a dry paper towel and a moist paper towel. Or a saltine cracker as against a bowl of applesauce. The dry stuff won't get warm, jointly as the different stuff will boil.

They dont. I put two cockroaches in a 1250w microwave oven for 20 seconds.
After 3 seconds they started to convulse and sizzle , then they puffed up to twice their normal size and stopped moving at about 6 seconds. then i turned the microwave off.

They probably will (if you use it long enough), but they may have more resistance because of having only very small sizes moisture pockets in it's body. Same goes for other insects.
Moisture molecules are heated up by microwaves; other stuff hardly or very slow.

if you zap them enough, they'll turn into radioactive giant super bugs and destroy the world.
