[2. roaches away]

Hmmmmmm, how many of you out there are haunted by roaches? How many insecticides have you bought? How much many have you spend on buying those useless products to kill a simple 6-legged creature?

Actually, I'm pretty afraid of those stuff too. Disgusting, smelly and they CAN fly! Oh my gosh! And they somehow doesn't know how to run away from humans and instead, they always run towards you. Most gals freaked out. Most guys avoided stepping over them so that they can keep their shoes clean. But it's only recently, my bunk mate taught me a simple way to kill them.

Some facts:
~ protein hardens at 60 degree celcius

~ the whitish, gross stuff you find in roaches are mainly the different types of protein bodies

So, think. What ways can you kill them without filling your room with the stinky smell of insecticides? But before that, there have to have some requirement for this method to work.

1. the roach is not flying

2. you have already some boiling water near your reach

So, now I shall reveal the steps in killing a roach using a clean and green method.

Step 1: Fill up a small glass/tumbler with the hot water.

Step 2: Bring it slowly to the roach. Make sure that you don't scare it away.

Step 3: Take aim.

Step 4: Splash the water over the disgusting pest.

Step 5: Watch the pest hardens and die. Viola!

But do take note. Nowadays, roaches are getting smarter. They can "tip-toe"! What?!?
