· Cockroaches have inhabited the earth for more than 250 million years.

· The average roach-infested household contains more than 20,000 roaches.

· Roaches can live up to 20 days without food and 14 days without water.

· They can flatten their bodies and crawl through a crack thinner than a dime.

· They'll eat anything -- food, leather, hair, and the glue in book bindings.

· They can live off the toothpaste residue in your toothbrush.

· They can survive radiation up to 12 time greater than humans.

· Roaches have been implicated in the spread of tuberculosis, leprosy, cholera, dysentery and typhoid.

· Roaches are startled by the smallest of air movements and can run for cover in less than .05 seconds.

· There are over 3,000 kinds of cockroaches, including the devastating Asian Roach, which has migrated to this country.

· They are cannibals and take a particular liking to each others' excrement.

· The actor Nicolas Cage ate a cockroach in the movie Vampire's Kiss, just for the shock value.

· In extreme cases roaches will feed off people.

Cockroaches can transmit a wide variety of diseases and cause common allergic reactions previously thought to be caused by dust

I definitely don't love them, but yes, they're pretty damn functional, and will far outlive all of us... so I guess they deserve some sort of er, respect...

They're still gross though, lol... to me anyway.
