ROFL we have lots of them in North Carolina. They are huge, fat and nasty. Kill it soon as possible or it'll run away and hide. They are smart creatures and you should get them as soon as you can, or they just go away for a while.

Just remember it's never just one.

Oh, and remember to sleep with your mouth closed, and probably some ear protection (just in case)

I don't believe it!! - a roach isn't dead unless its in a million pieces (think garbage disposal) even then its iffy....

roaches don't die ;)

I have tons of them in my house. I was scared of them when I was little but I learned to live with them.

Anyway, I usually don't kill them because it isn't worth the trouble but when I see 1) matting roaches or 2) a female roach about to lay an egg 3) If they are flying around 4) If I can identify the female doing an matting call I will kill them.

Yesterday there was a roach in my shower about to lay an eye. I wacked it and threw the egg down the toilet.
