Well in the Philippines i see a lot of cockroach. Some cockroach that fly and they like to go in an area that is dirty or dusty places. I saw one time a cockroach and i just kill it. I am not scared of cockroach unless its big and flying. Here in America i did not see any cockroach and i dont know if you see that in here.

Some part of the Philippines experiencing great floods sometimes, like what is happening right now. After the flood is gone,you can see a lot of roaches crawling everywhere coz they like wet and dirty areas. I am really and totally scared of cockroaches,i swear i'll ask someone to kill it instantly if i could see any. I saw from one of the reality programs in television that because of hunger,the family forced to search for coachroaches to eat. Really yacky!

Yes,I live in U.S.And I hsve seen cockroaches.They do not harm you.I hate them,but I can't stand the way they crunch when you step on them.Any bug that crunches gives me the chills.You mostly see them in dark musky basements.But I have never seen one fly.I think I would freak out!LOL!

Hello,happymom,i am afraid of cockroach,when i see the small one,i can kill it by my hands,but if it is a big one,i will never kill it by my bare hands,i will use a vacuum cleaner to suck it in so that i do not have contact with it,sometimes,it may have escaped when i am about to switch on the cleaner. I do not know how to deal with the flying roach though,do you have any good ideas?

This is the only context you will ever hear me say the word hate... I HATE cockroaches! Afraid of them? Only in the fact that they are such disgusting filthy creatures that carry diseases. But I can kill one with a smile on my face.
I stayed with a couple of friends once when I was 18 and their house was infested with them. They'd drop on my head from the ceiling, crawl into my pajamas in the night. I could never get any sleep in that house. Ever since I have done everything possible to keep them out of my house. Thank goodness they aren't a big problem in my current neighborhood.

Oh yes, absolutely!
That's why I kill them on sight. I know we shouldn't judge someone by their looks... but I can't help disliking cockroaches. :P
