I am catching up with posting online my articles.
This is the continuation of the previous article:
ABOUT DISGUSTING COCKROACHES - PART 5
In December 2013 I wrote couple of articles in regards to the cockroaches and the reaction of disgust that I had towards them. At some point I took into consideration that I should break of my reaction and try to touch one of these disgusting cockroaches walking sometimes in my kitchen. But then I did not do it.
Now the summer is coming and the hotter weather makes the cockroaches to become more active. And so in the last couple of days I noticed couple of cockroaches in my house. I am against killing them thus I catch them and I throw them outside. When my friends see it their jaws drop ( because it is "normal" and usual to kill them ) but then I say that the cockroaches don't pay their rent and so I evict them and I smile. I realised that cockroaches are also part of life, they are expression of life in this form and it is just our judgment and our mind that made them seem to be disgusting and so this is the reason why I do not kill them.
Anyway today I noticed a big, fat cockroach walking next to my computer table. But when I moved he disappeared under the furniture. Thus I got to prepare the dustpan and the floor brush and these are very effective tools to catch the cockroaches without hurting them. The way it works is that I swipe the cockroach with the brush and almost always they fall on their back and then they are immobilized. Then I get the dustpan and once I swipe the cockroach onto it then I keep shaking it rapidly so that he does not get on his feet and I throw him out of the window into the garden. And this quite easy to do on the open surface. Because once the cockroach finds a corner or some space under the furniture then it is almost impossible to get them out of there.
