Why do people hate roaches so much the ones i’ve seen seemed friendly
Friendly until they crawl into your ass and ears
There's another type of roaches in central Europe, they live from dead plant matter and die in a couple of days if they're accidentally in someone's house.
>>4617958We have those in NYC. They are huge and crawl in and kinda get slow and weak then die.
>>4617968They can fly too if they're the same.But yeah, they're perfectly harmless and don't infest homes.
>disgusting>infest houses>disease ridden>hide inside crevices and holes you didn't even know existed>enter through any space, big or small>you can't open your windows to let air flow inside your house at night because the fuckers will take the chance and go right inside>reproduce fast>eat your food>eat your napkins>huge so if you stomp them you get your soles and floor dirty with thick slimy wet dead cockroach innards and shellsTOTAL COCKROACH DEATHGENOCIDE COCKROACHES
>>4617958Thats probably the ones i’ve seen. Big friendly fellas and not very fast
>>4617936Association with uncleanliness mainly.
>>4617936because they're scary/thread
theyre nasty fuckers that spread disease and i dont wanna deal with that
>>4617937Fuck these shits, it's like earwax is honey to them
>>4617985I posted that >>4617958Actually, my kitchen and stuff is quite clean.
>>4617958picrel ones? they eat fucking anything(not only plants), gets everywhere and are impossible to get rid off. also stinks like shit. if you spot them in your home you have one option. burning down whole block.
>>4618071This one:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectobius_vittiventrisSo, probably not that one.
damn Americans really have some pests don't they. Racoons and cocks
>>4617985Flies are unclean but they never get the same reaction because roaches are fast and large
>>4618255Flies are pretty self contained too, yeah they can infest shit but it takes a while for it to spawn new flies and you can throw it out in the meantime. Meanwhile, roaches can create more of themselves off crumbs and scraps without you noticing and can go weeks without food.
>>4617936They’ll fly up in your face when startled and stab you with their spiky legs. They’ll also nibble on your toes or anything else not covered by your blanket as you sleep. The bites don’t hurt, but it’s a fairly sharp pinch.
>>4617936>Doesn't know what personal space is, pounces on your face and feet whenever it get a chance, also very fast.I wouldn't have a problem with them if they behave like normal insects. fuck them.
>>4617936I kneel, Roach-sama
I don't usually post here and I don't want to kill a thread for this.Is this a roach? I've never seen them before and this thing came in through my window today, I think. I've been in a new apartment for just over a month and it freaked me out since I really don't want to find out I moved in somewhere that has fucking roaches.Picture is pretty shit because my phone doesn't want to focus on this thing.
>>4618418yes and its a tiny one which means there's a breeding populationyou're fucked
>>4617958Wood roaches! They're what link Termites to roaches.>>4617973All roaches fly amigo >>4618071not it>>4618418easy id on roaches are long antennae, spiky legs, and their forewings are leathery. That is 100% a roach. If you rent, immediately inform your landlord
>>4618461>>4618439Fucking hell. Thanks. This really fucking sucks.
>>4618020they're not scary just very disgusting.i ain't scared of poop but sure as shit don't want to be near it
>>4617936are you an indian
>>4617936Why do the roaches in my house only come out at night and when the temperature is a summer heatwave?
>>4618418That looks like something in Ectobiidae family, wood cockroaches.>>4618439It's likely an adult, just from a small species. Nymphs look different and don't have fully developed wings.
I have bug nets everywhere and I swear I see the same faggot roach try to get in every goddamn night, like just give up ready
anyone has that full jap video of torture devices made specifially for roaches?
>live in major US city>next door neighbor's house only separated by 4 foot gangway>never had roach problem>neighbor moves after 10 years>flood of roaches infests all properties around their home including oursIt took us over a year to finally genocide G*rman roaches>>4617981This anon gets it. >roaches short my PC's power supply>roaches destroy my printer>roaches found inside my coffee machine>INSIDE MY COFFEE MACHINE>BEEN DRINKING ROACH COFFEE FOR A YEAR>AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHKILL ALL ROACHES. TOTAL ROACH DEATH. ALL ROACHES ARE BASTARDS.
>>4620889>BEEN DRINKING ROACH COFFEE FOR A YEARJesus man, and to think i was disgusted by that time one flew right into my face
>>4620889>he doesn't clean his coffee machine regularly enough to notice a cockroach infestationyou get what you fucking deserve
>>4617936I have a potted plant on my balcony that happens to have a small symbiotic ant colony living among its roots. When I find and kill a cockroach I always make a point of putting the corps next to the pot so the ants can have a nice protein treat. The ants are really well behaved by the way. I've never caught even one inside my house and that plant they're in symbiosis with is the healthiest I got.
>>4618050this, and diarrhea is like marmalade
>>4617936OP is a cockroach
>>4621341this. Enough personal hygiene and constantly cleaning up your place does help a lot with keeping these fuckers away
>>4617981You vill drink ze cockroach coffee
>>4621402lol
>>4617958waterbugs?
>>4617936They keep eating my bread! How's a man supposed to survive in this harsh economical climate if roaches keep eating my bread?
>>4621892Eat the roaches
>>4617958Germans?
>>4617937>>4618050Hol upThey do that?
>>4620889You think roach coffee is bad? You should see the layer of roaches they have to scrape out of soda syrup on a daily basis because the fuckers manage to get into the sealed tanks
>>4617936Because their shit, slime, and saliva all mix into this disgusting-smelling, acidic brown liquid. They ARE unsanitary and deserve all the hate they get.
>>4622214Once again a little piece of information makes me glad I don't drink soda
>>4617936They're not a problem until there's an infestation. If I see one outside I'll leave it alone like I do with all bugs but when they're inside there's rarely just one that accidentally got in. They become very bothersome once you find a few in your bed.
I want to fucking burn down my house, these fuckers have ruined my life. I hate every bite of food that I take, I want to puke every day, rage fills the inside of my body, paranoia takes a hold of my mind. I really, really wish I could just fucking wage total war against german roaches, but alas, I can only find temporary solace in their mangled corpses and slow deaths at the hands of alcohol and a match. Somebody wake me from this nightmare, I fear I don't have much time left.
>>4623228have you considered not living in filth?
>>4623294I clean, I kill, I call for help. Nothing has had an effect. They're in the walls, the outlets, everywhere I can't reach and they know it. They taunt me. Kill a thousand, two thousand take their place. I have no escape, but I am not willing to die until they've died first.
>>4617936>the ones i’ve seen seemed friendlyThat's bullshit. Pine/Palmetto/Waterbugs/whatthefuckeveryoucallthem are notorious for dive bombing at people, and even the hardest cunt in the universe will shriek and flail like a little bitch.
>>4620889>be me >have job where I go in early as fuck >drink gallons of black coffee to function until the sun comes up >walk out of the break room sipping a cup of coffee >my coordinator comes up to me and gives me this look >tells me that when she came in 5 minutes earlier she saw a roach crawling out of the coffee maker in the part where it discards the pods and was coming back to put a sign warning everyone not to use the machine until its sterilized >tell her I appreciate her doing that, but stress that I kind of wished she hadn't told me since this is a textbook example of finding half a worm in your apple
>>4622154Why do you think they're called COCK-roaches?Have fun sleeping tonight
>>4623228I used to have them. Get this stuff put it everywhere, cabinets, corners, etcThen bomb your house. Trust me it works.With German cockroaches you need the gel because they'll bring it back to their nest.
>>4623546I've started putting up roach traps in my office, but I might have to switch to gel because there's just too many of them
>>4623546all that off the shelf stuff is dog shit. this is roach Armageddon. The real key though is cleaning up, calling up hiding areas, and starving them of anything beyond the bait. this not only kills the bug, but because they're also cannibalistic sons of bitches, when they die in the nest, others eat their poisoned bodies and continue spreading the poison.
>>4618071Why don't you just spray them with slow-acting pesticide?When they go back to the nest the pesticide will spread to all the others and the fuckers dieIf not just gas the house
>>4623604You can't just gas the house with German cockroaches. You need the gel.>>4623595I'm with you brother, fuck cockroaches and FUCK mother fuckers who bring the German ones with them to others buildings. Fuck those people.
>>4617936Kill roaches behead roaches roundhouse kick roaches into the concrete
it's a deep seeded instinctual aversion that is wired by evolution
>>4623595>>4625264WHY DO I ALWAYS FORGET THE IMAGE!?! IM TRYING TO HELP PEOPLE!!!!
>>4625415That brand is good but you posted the one for ants. Put in on little post it notes and then redo it with fresh gel every 3 days because they like it fresh. It will kill every roach in about a month.
>>4618418might not be a roach
I love them! They make nice crunching noises when I feed them to my tarantula or blue tongue skink
Roaches are total bros. Help clean up pretty much anything on the floor, like living with a bunch of roombas.
>>4625514based
>>4621344Tell your ants i said hi :)All of them :^)Individually >:^)
>>4622154Yes and even the big ones do It, they enjoy crawling in tight spaces and are the insects that crawl into human ears the most on the planet, that and they can scrape up or freaking perforate your eardrum while human spelunking
>>4617936What >>4617981 saidAlso one flew over my head when I was a kid and I think that scarred me for life. I never knew they could fly.
>>4623558How macabre to make it look like that
>>4625264>FUCK mother fuckers who bring the German ones with them to others buildingsWhen I was younger my parents and I had to move into an apartment building, one of the not so nice ones and my neighbors would always be moving in and out. One day someone brought German cockroaches with me.Never again. I cannot begin to express the disdain and contempt I'd feel if I had to use the bathroom or get something to drink and know I'd have to deal with these motherfuckers all over the place. We were never dirty people either, the roaches practically never had any real food to feed on but they are that persistent. FUCK German cockroaches. I had some bigger ones before where I'd see maybe 1 a month as a kid, but the German ones are reprehensible. Fucking hate them
>>4617936because i'm a lazy shit, roaches remind me when i REALLY need to mow my grass because when my grass grows tall, they start fucking like bunnies and make their way indoors
>>4617936They gather around trash and excrement, most are very neurotic and spazz out if you touch or try to handle them, and also have spiky legs. It's one of the only creatures that still gets a visceral disgust reaction out of me, besides most flies and tapirs
>>4618418It's 100% a german cockroach. Look it up.They colonize homes unlike the american roaches in OP pic who are sewer's creatures and sometimes end up in homes through pipes but don't survive.
>>4617936One cockroach is friendly. Three weeks later your grain sacks are full of holes and your cabinets smell like piss.
