They only fly in Mexico (and southern Texas) though. Science literally doesn’t know why. Oh and for some reason it’s only the ones big enough to confuse for squirrels.
And they taunt you! They’ll either crawl up or jump out at you to make you panic, but those fuckers quickly meet my chancla.
We also have the tiny ones that I’ve began squishing with my bare hands. Fuck it, I don’t care anyone, there are so many of them despite having a clean house. I think I kill 3-4 per night.
I mean, cockroaches are largely decomposers with photophobia. There isn’t much need to fly when you live in cramped, dark spaces. That doesn’t mean they don’t have the ability, which is what I’m contesting.
Yeah. Most Mexican cockroaches don’t give a flying patootie about light. Some scramble but you’ll see them during day and they will fly straight at your face. They’re wicked fast and hard to kill too. And they make noise. They’re in a class of their own.
Really? They don’t fly in the northern States or western States I’ve lived in in the US nor the European country I’m in or have visited. Also don’t like light and more active at night. They’re a problem where I am now and they are slow and dumb comparatively. They often off themselves by falling on their own backs. You’ll find them on the street dead trying to climb steps and stuff. They are not the flying monstrosities we had in Mexico by any measure. (Oh fudge. I just looked up and they are elsewhere in the country they just haven’t spread to our island but this seems like a recent development. I hope they don’t ever come here.)
Wiktionary tells me it meant “butterfly caterpillars”.
Huh??
Idk but those suckers can fly in Mexico. They’re awful.
All cockroaches have four wings and are capable of flight.

I’m currently fighting off some invasive stink bugs and I was sick of slowly killing them with poison/alcohol.
So I shopped for a bug-a-salt Pumpgun, but this is probably having not enough power for cockroaches.
But just recently I saw the successor and that could be helpful

flying squirrels?
They’re stupid big
Dude, they fly in most places including Australia
Just he glad you guys don’t have the spiders that would eat them for lunch

Sounds less weird the the word butterfly
Well they thought butterflies ate butter, so they called them “flies that eat butter”, hence butterfly. (that’s one of the theories at least)
