Back in my college days down in Atlanta I used to keep a tennis racket handy for the sole purpose of hitting those flying roaches in my dorm.  |

And when I spot it, right away I'm alert, because I know the sumamabitch is VERY near. Scorpions have an odor as well, its very similar to gasoline  | |

And as much as I hate roaches, I find these lil' fuckas even MORE disgusting and gruesome
Everytime I go to Arizona to visit my auntie, I see ALL types of desert beetles and the minute I spot them from a mile, the back my head produce electricity that could light up a whole rural town
Roaches have odor by nature, they can't help it, but THOSE lil' greasy bitches FART in self defence, did you know that? Evil sloppy greasy shit eating lil' bastards. | |

Scorpions have an odor as well, its very similar to gasoline You know I've never seen too many scorpions, I think I've seen two in my 39 years at most. I've killed more centipedes than I care to remember, but I realize that they don't bite indiscriminately. I once felt something like a leaf blowing across my leg and brushed it off and to my horror, it was a 10 inch centipede. It just ran the fuck away ... until I caught it with the bottom of my shoe.

I've been obsessed with making sure any apartment that I come to see doesn't have any infestation. I turned down a condo close to downtown Chicago 'cause when I looked under the kitchen cabinet sink they had this brown poison gel lined up against the cracks. I knew what time it was. No thanks
 I lived in an apartment building that was infested with them. When you live in a building with other people, once one apartment has them, that's it, everybody has them. "The Scatter" (you know what I'm talking about, you turn on the light and they fucking scatter) is one of the most horrible things to see first thing in the morning, ever.  Oh, tell me about it! Back in college, my boyfriend had an apartment that was infested. You could actually hear the roaches scatter when lights were turned on! | |

[Edited 5/15/10 8:43am] You know whats the FUCKED UP part about this whole discussion? ALL of the aforementioned predators are expensive delicacies in some cultures esp the centipedes.
I know I'm trying to keep an open mind about things I'm not exposed to but goddamn if I see one of them(esp that GREASY desert dung beetle) in a buffet, my mind will be closed indefinitely and there's gonna more than a bunch of ruffled feathers  | |

dseann said: DesireeNevermind said:  how did you get roaches in the first place?In the Caribbean, it's not like in the U.S. where filth brings them out. If there is a strong downpour here the come out to play. They fly around like fireflies or mosquitoes and if you open your door one might fly in, or even find someway in your house when you least expect it. It's bad enough I'm terrified of the ones that crawl but THIS...  surviving on the thought of loving you, it's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years... | |

If any of the aforementioned predators show on my dinner plate intentionally, I'd dump the cook in a pan of boiling corn oil. Deep fry that ass.  | |
