haha.. no lah, I'm a crazy fellow who likes to think of crazy ideas.
I'm also scared of cockcroach but bo bian, sometmes have to act tough and catch it.
Usually I would use empty container to trap it.
And now u reminded me of this incident,
got 1 time hor, I left the cockcroach in the container for 1 good day and it still never die! u don't die hor, nvr mind. So I decided to try and "hiong hiong" grab it (not bare hand of course, I will cover my hand with a plastic bag) and dump it into the rubbish chute.
Yes, I did it ("bravely") eventually (I think for 1 good hour!).
After this incident, I hated "them" more. Why? Becos there's this unbearable stinky smell after opening the container.
So ladies, nvr trap a cockroach in a container and leave it overnight. I've learnt my lesson.
"These" creatures should not be called 蟑螂 but rather 臭蟑螂, oh sorry, shld be xi2 beih3 臭蟑螂.
