BURN THEM WITH FIRE. Srsly tho, the freezer idea in an air tight plastic bag would kill the shit outta them

I heard that the counter to bug-type pokemon is poison attacks.

But cockroaches are fairly large, and I can't imagine how one would get into your keyboard... that's almost like saying "I discovered a rat living in my keyboard". It's just kind of hard to grasp an entire roach being able to fit in between the cracks in the keys. If it were ants, or something gross like maggots, I could see it conceivably happening, but roaches?

You know, you could just use a screwdriver to pop the keys out and then take your keyboard outside and just shake the roaches out of it.

If you do, somehow, have a rat living in your keyboard, you can lure it out with limburger cheese, because it has a powerful scent.

If you discover a colony of feral cats living in your keyboard, call 911.

You should have walled off - this thing just waltzed into your keyboard, dropped a hatch and started producing roach eggs? Why do you still even have this keyboard? This is hideous.

I love this thread though ^^

So to summarize - he has burrow, tunneling claws, new roaches hatching and creep tumors on your enter, f12 and delete keys?
you only have 1 marauder?
time to gg out, get a new keyboard (I'd go for razer immortal to surely avoid this problem in the future) and work on your macro mechanics (don't forget to clean at least once a month and destroy those tumors as soon as they spawn)

thanks for the laughs though

I stopped at page 2... but honestly guys there are a lot of cockroaches in Hawaii... a lot... barring the resorts.... hawaii very ghetto and slummy... and no matter how clean your place is, they will invade


a solid recommendation and a very truthful one is to buy a gecko and let it have free roam of your house.... more than one preferably - but this will take care of your cockroach problem.

Starcrafters,

Look at your keyboard, now back to mine, now back to yours, now back to mine.
Thankfully it is not mine, but if you started living in Hawaii then yours too could be infested by zerg.

Look down, look up

What are you looking at, my maurader keyboard which is covered in creep. Look again, the roaches have bred!
Anythings possible when you live in Hawaii, I have a pet Kerrigan.

There are hundres of different types of cockroaches... not all of them are the huge hissing ones they always have in the movies. I remember being in Florida on spring break, and they are all over the place down there too, some big, some small.

Don't worry, roach is ground only.

Lol at the people surprised at a roach actually being able to fit in a keyboard. You'd be surprised what they can fit in, regardless of their size. They're the longest living species for a reason.

I heard banshees are a good counter against roaches, so...

Do exactly what idra did. Attack move (smash) the banshee (razer headset) onto the marauder (keyboard).


omg i cannot stop laughing. omg ROFL
