I was just trying to think of something for journal when a topic crawled right in front of my face, figuratively and literally, but not that close, not like when I was very young when one roach decided that was a good idea to share a bowl of noodles with me while I was still eating.
An adult German cockroach was crawling leisurely as if there was nobody there, at first, I was going to use a plastic container to catch it — I don’t dare to smack any roaches even with an item — then a thought came to me, why not use roach bait, one that has the last meal in it.
So, I observed the target, which was staying against the wall facing to right, I purposely placed the bait twenty centimeters behind it and lined up the opening right on its escaping route. From my three decades experience of dealing such pest, I can tell which direction and how it would run.
Everything is set.
I gently nudged it with the container, just as I’d planned, it made a quick 180 turn in a split of a second, then it all ended very fast, another fraction of the second, it pew (sound effect) directly into the bait.
Now, I think this would be my favorite way to exterminate any roaches, I’d just kindly provide them a very cozy dark accommodation to stay when some weird object trying to chase them and smack the shit out of them (me physically and it biologically), with a free of charge and delicious meal waiting for them inside the well-built heaven (no pun intended).
I took me three decades to finally realized that there was an easy way to get rid of one roach with horrifying moment if the operation goes south, so I am wondering who is the one single-minded, me or the one running for life and has been virtually successfully for so many years along with its 119-239 brothers and sisters from the same parents.
Anyway, allow me savor my triumph for a bit longer.
Enjoy, my dear roach!
