Cockroaches... as far as I'm aware, they don't contribute anything to the eco system, they're just pests.

Unfortunatelly, not even a nuclear war can erradicate them ๐Ÿ˜’.

One of the proposed explanations for the recent explosion in bed bug populations is the fact that pesticides have become more effective at eliminating cockroaches, which are predators of bed bug eggs

Hm ๐Ÿค”... you know, I've seen roaches in the bathroom as well, and I always wondered what they were doing there, like there's no food there. Apparently, if food is scarse, they'll eat almost anything, dead human skin included.

In that case, I guess they're not that bad. Sure, they should be regulated, cuz of deseases and all that, but living in a bubble is not good as well... for the immune system I mean.

OK, you've convinced me, I'm giving up on the roaches ๐Ÿ˜‚.
