What do I know about cockroaches? I know that they can survive for SIX weeks without their heads! That's so disturbing. I also know they don't need to eat everyday. They can survive incredible amounts of radiation. It's crazy what cockroaches have survived. I want to know what they like to eat more, do they like fruit? Vegtables? Or do they eat meat? Can they survive in the cold harsh environment in Washington? Im not sure.

I know that cockroaches like eating veggies and fruit, they like to invade messy kitchens and are difficult to rid yourself of.
They can survive nuclear war missiles and having their head chopped off.

I want to know how the can survive in such terrible conditions and why they enjoy eating those certain foods. Maybe even how long they have existed on this earth.

Cockroaches-They are nasty gross and ugly things that have no life and need to die because there is no purpose of them on this world
I know that they are an insect that has 2 long tentacles in front of them.
Color of them are brown or dark brown.

I lived in California and had lots of cockroaches every where for a long time-
They like to sit in your bath tub
They don't like dogs

What I want to know about them:
What type of food do they eat,
What do they smell like,
What do they use their 2 long tentacles for
I also what do know how long can they live
What kind of environment do they like
Do they prefer the dark better than the light?

About the Blogger
I started my teaching career in South Central Los Angeles teaching in modified to full bilingual 4th and 5th grade classes. Then I moved to WA State where I have taught mainly 6th through 8th grade. I have enjoyed the culture clash but notice that kids are the same everywhere :o)

My areas of interest are science and technology but I also love studying ancient cultures and learning about different peoples and cultures.
