Cockroach Hunting

If there is one thing I abhor and do not want to share my living quarters with it is cockroaches or cucarachas. The most common variety here are typically BIG and are the type that fly in rather than walk in. That makes it really convenient for them to invade my privacy but I will hunt them down and kill any that I see. Only one has ever successfully evaded me. Here is how a typical hunt unfolds.You open an innocent drawer, this one being the garbage can. To your horror you see a cockroach scuttle across a pot or pan or in this case the contents of the can.

You never try to out run them, rather you reach for your weapon of choice, this being 'Baygon' the roach killer. See the little guy tits up on the label.
You remove the drawer and if need by the content of the cupboard next door until you find him then you aim your can and fire.
A good hit and this is a far as he gets.
Ew-w-w-w!
You then pick him up with a piece of TP and.....
give him a water slide ride...whe-e-e-e-e. That was satisfying.
