I have to agree. Sorry, I am quite sure there are interesting varieties but if you have ever had to live in roach infested housing, you might not find them quite so attractive. But I wouldn't kill it, at least I wouldn't squash it, only 'cause I can't stand to sqaush big bugs.
Yuck.
We have them downtown, 2" long - I can't imagine how you guys in Florida deal with those big palmetto bugs.
