About once a year they do something to the sewers here in Phx. Then these massive roaches come right out of the toilet (yeah right out of it). The last time it happened I hit one full on with a fly swatter and it didn't even faze it. It started flying around the bathroom.

I don't have any roaches in my house except when this happens. Boric acid works wonders. They breathe through their feet & that's hard to do when you fill their itty-bitty lungs w/ acid.

If I know one is in the house I won't sleep, or leave the house until I know it's dead. I even moved my washing machine once to track one down.

Your's is about average size for one around here.

edit: now confirmed dead 18 minutes after pic taken. now i just need to gather whats left of my testicles and flush it down.


My cockroaches are laughing at the smallness of your little frisadfsf

Raid = Poison. Shoe = Eggs. Acetone = awesome. Seriously, they melt under some acetone spray. Nail polish remover should do the trick. Plus it evaporates, so no mess!

All right. This is serious. I want to see a pic of a melted roach.
