Cockroach / 蟑螂 (小强)

Still remember the cute frozen lizard picture I took not long ago? (frozen cos I accidentally freeze the poor lizard inside the freezer) Now I'm on the crazy move again.. I love taking photos (basically I will take a shot or two of anything that catch my interest) and up-to-date, I have taken more than 35,000 photos. This time, the star of the day was... Mr Roach (also known as cockroach aka 小强/Siu Keong.

Well, I dislikes cockroach. But since this Siu Keong disturbed me when I was shifting thing yesterday night.. So, sorrylah.. Siu Keong, u need to Rest In Peace liao..

Well, this Siu Kiong died in style with the 六脚朝天 posture .. Ada Gaya, ada sensasi... So, he can really R.I.P. with no regrets.

Dunno ah.. I always have this thought that the cockroach might fly around & land on my head. So, I have no mercy on them. See one kill one.. Hahha, although cockroaches only fly around during rainy days.. How about you?

** Note to self : This is kahchuak, not kahlua...

I don't have any problem with cockroach at all... several times, cockroach has been walk passing on my feet, and it's ok with me... sometimes, I might kill them, but then sometimes.. I just let them free to enjoy their life... :)

I only dislike their smell... that's all...

Cockroach will find "perfume" sprayed on them if they let me see them. Hehe... :D

These home cockroaches are health hazard to human. They are carrier of pathogens that caused asthma, allergies. so do not give chance for them to live ok?!

but if you are talking about the "Madagascan Giant Hissing Roaches", that will be different & interesting. those interested, go google yourself for some interesting info of this pet :D

Chen said...

SA,
Thinking about the cockroaches crawling on my body.. That is indeed an unpleasant thought. Yucks

The "dying cockroach" cockroach exercise sounds fun.. but if doing that for prolonged period.. Mmmm... bodyache..

May,
LOL Luckily u only hide behind LB's skirt & not underneath his skirt :P

Zeroimpact,
Siu Keong died already lah.. Not scary anymore. Dead cockroach won't do any harm leh ;)

Slurp,
Yeah, the roaches are dirty little fella. I can't imagine the contestants of Fear Factor are asked to eat & chew live cockroaches. Yucks... I feel like vomiting seeing that. Damn disgusting..

I google on the 'Madagascan Giant Hissing Roaches' just now.. Looks equally eerie as well :P

Anonymous said...

Same case here. I have this fear that the siu keong have kepak wan and will fly and land over at my head or something.. or worse, face!

And the smell.. eww. Beh tahan leh.

rainbow angeles said...

My place is not actually bug-free... oh, and i absolutely BENCI itu semut!!! Especially the small red ones... and also the small smelly ones! Ewwww!!

BTW...
DYK that you've been tagged... again... liuliuliu... :D

Chen said...

yeah lah, u suku liao, dat's why... I killed the kahchuak, how will I cry for it leh? LOL

butt,
The flying roach is the most disgusting roach !! Don't mention about landing on the face (dowan to think about that) :P

angel,
itu merah punya semut, gigit olang manyak sakit woi..

IDBI I kena tagged again ah... I saw it liao at your blog. Manyak susah punya tag... Must drink more ginseng liao (but dont have ginseng in da house :P )

Mother Superior said...

Just popping by, and what do I see - a kah chua!!! Frankly, I'm not really scared of roaches, just rodents. Come to think of it, on forensic foresight, don't you think your cockroach looks, er, a little juicy? Ugh!!!

Alicia said...

waaaaaa u always take pictures of dead stuff!

so meannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

the roach family will miss the roach la

NA said...

Did you manage to dissect 小强? =)

Francis Ho said...

That's a fine looking specimen ... but I'll stick to waters, clouds n skies! ;)

Robin CHAN said...

Dun get me wrong, I was reading another post from Kampungkai, which say about the same subject on ridding the pest.

Chen said...

mother superior,
juicy roaches? Yucks… I’m not gonna eat that.. Hahha, so I can’t partake in Fear Factor ;)

alicia,
Not always lah.. must change “taste” once in a while :P

This roach is a poor orphan, so don’t worry ;) His mum & dad left him long long time ago liao...

kurakat,
Dissect the roach? Frankly speaking.. I did that when I was in secondary school time.. at 14 years old.. Out of curiosity, I dissect the cockroach.. Nothing special inside there.. not as what I expected :D

fh2o,
Unker, occasionally u do take nice pictures of spiders, little croc - lizards & frogs as well (besides the cloud, river, sky etc etc…) ;)

robin,
okie :)

Kristopher said...

Doc: i run away 1st.... ;)

Chen said...

kristopher,

Pink Cotton said...

I HATE KA CUAKS too!!!!!!!!!!

hahaha...i feel the same way as u la chen.i must kill them whenever i see them!

why,just the other ntie i was trying to kill a ka cuak who was on the wall...i couldnt find the 'bang yiu' and guess what i used to kill him???


PERFUME!..wahahaha
just spray spray on the ka cuak ..kekekeke

Chen said...

pink cotton,
walao.. use perfume to spray at kah chuak? The kah chuak must be smell very nice then after the “magic” spray.

Hahha, good lah u.. Used whatever resource available on the shelf :P
Kekkee.. btw, is it effective?

Pandabonium said...

Chen said...
