I HAVE always wondered why things that are venomous (like tarantulas, spiders in general, scorpions, snakes) don't bother me in the least, but a harmless flying cockroach can paralyze me.

When I read your post, I was wondering about that, lol. Nah, they probably freak you out because they're not pets, they're disgusting, and annoying, I'm sure. I mean, I would love to be able to see a flying cockroach in real life, only because I've never seen one before. I've only read about them. Sometimes, I get cautious if I don't know what it is, if it's something I've never read about, or never seen. Most cockroaches are really gross, but what really interest me about them is their ability to adapt to almost anything. They're amazing creatures.
