how long do cockroaches live?
if they're not squashed underfoot as youngsters, that is.
there's this cockroach that sneaks into my loo every night, and waits patiently behind the wash-basin till i come in and shoo it away, at which point it scuttles back down the drain-pipe.
it's a gentle, harmless creature.
but I'm not sure if it's the same cockroach, because it's been turning up with extreme regularity every day for about a month now!
do you suppose it's a whole bunch of cockroaches who decided to take turns to visit me?
anyway, it needs a name, what should i call it?

Call it Sepp Blatta. :P
cockroaches are never, i say never "gentle, harmless creatures"!!! it's just their existence that makes it impossible. like mosquitoes.
I *cannot* stand cockroaches. And don't even get me started on the flying ones.
Actually cockroaches aren't that bad. They're one of Nature's little cleaners.
@Tuna, All cockroaches possess the ability of flight. So technically, you have started on the flying ones.
@Neeli,
They live long enough to grow from the teey tiny ones you can barely see to the ones almost as long as your hand. Call it Kukkaracha.
:)
You're wondering what you should call it??!! Kill it, I say!
Roach, I guess.
But I promise I'll refuse to go to your apartment if you're keeping pet cockroaches!
@neelu,
u're right, they're not that bad, they're all shiny maroon, look better than most bugs!
