I seriously hate cockroaches, they are the most disgusting, gross, creatures to ever set foot on Earth. I'm sure many of you people out there hate cockroaches with a passion as much as I do, yet, they have survived for millions of years since first evolving in the Carboniferous period. Don't any of you people wish that they died along in the Permian mass extinction which killed about 90 percet of all species on Earth?, or died along with the Dinosaurs?, I just hate cockroaches with such a passion, thats why I have bought Raid recently. Man, are cockroaches really that tought to exterminate?, man, it's like the Devil created them.

Cockroaches are tough. If anything was going to survive the Permian Extinction it was going to be a cockroach. We have them at the moment, I don't like bug spray so I try to squash them. Stand on them on a carpet and they walk away, I don't believe how hard they are to stop. And they get through cracks that look to be much thinner than a cockroach. I believe cockroaches can live through 10,000 times as much radiation as would kill a man. So you can't even nuke them!

For me, it would have been the other way around. If I saw something I thought was a big *** spider, I would have been relieved to have seen a cockroach. Mind you, I've never even seen a live cockroach before but, anything is less scarier than a spider for me...

Supposedly, cockroaches have no central nervous system so, the theory is that this is why they can survive certain conditions that other species would not survive. Just something that I had heard. I cannot think of anyone who likes cockroaches unless, they are prey to other animals. Remember the Roach Hotel ?? "They can enter but they can't get out".

Maybe cockroaches feel the same way about people? People have been a lot more destructive to the earth than cockroaches.
They have just as much "right" to live on earth as people do.

Lol... use pesticides and make your own cockroach extinction. I'm sure people would record that in every biology journal and you will be in history textbooks.

Actually, I couldn't care less about cockroaches and pseudo-intellectual rants on prehistoric epochs and bug sprays.
