Cockroaches can live 9 days without their heads attatched?? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 97/100. Sissygrl (4548)   ranked 2 out of 92 in msn7 months ago

I was playing the brain game on MSN with my good friend last night, and although it was late at night, i know for sure that this question was real. . We both remember it. . What insect can live 9 days without its head.. and .. its a cockroach.. geez. are those things darn near indestructable?

So the body lives.. but what does it to? just scuddle around bumping into things endlessly for 9 freaking days? WEIRD.

that's true, once I was watching national geographic channel and they were showing some stuff on insects, and the host was holding a huge one in his hand, he took a knife that those hotel cooks use, and he was like............BAMMM............he chomped his head off the bdy. I was eating some popcorns at that time, and when I saw that, I was like.....EEEEEEWWWWWWWW

I am amazed too about this. I have heard it from a pest control person that this is true. They will be here when everything else becomes extinct, I do believe.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Sissygrl (4548)   ranked 2 out of 92 in msn  7 months ago

Yes, and they will have a feeast!

Hey Sissy

Oh that is so sick, and I hae to say right now roaches are not fun insects to try to get rid of no matter what you do, as they tend to lay eggs rapidly

I wold have never known that a cockroach can live 9 days without its head,

but I have read that they can be good for crops, can't remember why but I heard it on the radio that some cockroaches can be friends of a farmer.

Mooch


myLot reputation of 97/100. Sissygrl (4548)   ranked 2 out of 92 in msn  7 months ago

Maybe they eat mytes or something that can cause damage to the crops! i doubt they'd be able to do THAT headless though!

I've heard of that before and wonder the same thing. What do they do for 9 days is beyond me. I know they're nasty creepy little creatures and also want to know, what in the world are they good for? Eeeewwwww!!


Cocroach

I dunno what they are good for if its for anything.. what do they eat? other bugs maybe..? I know gecko's eat them.. my aunt works in the biology department in a university and to try to combat the cockroach problem they brought in those lizards to eat some of them lol.

That is really freaky! So I guess in order to kill them we have to step on their bodies and make sure that they are flattened real good so that they would not stand up and walk again. LOL!


myLot reputation of 97/100. Sissygrl (4548)   ranked 2 out of 92 in msn  7 months ago

Or burn them up real good. but that would probably stink. Lets say drown them;)

That is really creepy!

I was just looking through my books trying to find this story i read, about a chicken, i think in the 1940's that survived several years without a head.

It had been cut off somehow leaving enough of a brain stump to allow it to live. the bird was fed with an eye dropper if I rememer correctly.

It was something of a tourist attraction, I imagine along to the lines of a large ball of string, or a bearded lady.


myLot reputation of 97/100. Sissygrl (4548)   ranked 2 out of 92 in msn  7 months ago

I've heard this story as well! I dunno where though.
