🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳HELL NO! $2,000 to have 100 cockroaches in your home? A thousand HELL NOs!🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳

[Floyd R. Turbo]

Could money persuade you to live with 100 cockroaches crawling around your house? A North Carolina pest control company is offering $2,000 to homeowning families willing to take in 100 roach roommates for an experiment. 

"As technology advances, we’re always looking for the newest and greatest ways to get rid of pests (cockroaches specifically)," ThePestInformer said in a news release. "In this study, we’re willing to pay homeowners $2,000 for us to release American cockroaches into your home."

The PestInformer said it is looking for five to seven families to open up their homes, where 100 cockroaches would be released and stay for 30 days while being filmed "to gauge how effective this treatment is." Online applications will be accepted through July 31, according to the company's website.

David Floyd, founder of ThePestInformer, told NBC News more than 2,200 families had applied as of Monday.

1. Hmmm, a weird experiment indeed. But w/ my 3 dogs and their huge appetites for all bugs

in my house, thus I never see any bugs. If I didn't have the 3 dogs, I could envision myself taking on such an experiment.

12. Btw, it is my understanding that American roaches

Are the huge mofos. Body the size of my index & middle finger.

They fly.

And bite.

Hell no!

So they release these & allow them to infest ghe homes (& entire neighborhoods!), then spray poison repeatedly.

Not a good deal imo.

13. The largest I've seen in the states were in Hawaii. They would come out at night along the Ala Wai

Canal. After a couple of nights scraping their remains off of my runners, I quit running the canal after dark!

14. Saw 1 knock over a large, heavy paper grocery bag.

Horrid creatures.

Almost as revolting as qpukes!

16. Ikr!

And if you try to spray them, they fly at you.

Another reason I stay in my very well sealed, nice cool home.
