That's what I thought this mornig. It looked dead. I thought it was dead. It was on its back, which means it's dead right? Thats what any person would think if they saw something on it's back. If something is dead, why not put it in the trashcan? It wouldn't move... unless it was alive!!!
Yeah, that's right. It was alive! The cockroach that was laying on it's back in my kitchen this morning was not dead but ALIVE, which I figured out after I tried to pick it up with a dust pan!!
It was very scary. Leah was behind me screaming, which only frightened me more! After it had gained it's senses, it quickly started scurrying around on the floor. I was trying to remain calm, but Leah's screaming didn't help. That's when I fully realized that there was actually a huge cockroach running around in our place! So, I smacked it as hard as I could with the dust pan and ending up breaking it. I didn't even notice that I had broken it, I was just happy the cockroach was dead! I had to hug Leah afterwards, its was very scary!!
So, when you see a giant cockroach laying on its back, just keep Erin's story in mind.. it might not really be dead!!

I remember when we first moved to Florida, I got up to feed the dogs. As I reached into the dog food bag to scoop out the food, i could hear scuttling. The cockroaches had invaded the dog food bag. It gives me the heebee geebees just thinking about it! We went out that day and got sealable storage containers for the food and have been using them ever since. I discovered that cockroaches are bold and fearless. They will run at you not away. I highly recommend some pesticide if possible!
