Not the ones killed by Won Sile. Cockroaches that die upsidedown are killed by Raid and co. Try Won Sile and see them die shattered. 2 Likes |

Some die right side up. But most of them die upside down cos they put themselves dat way. Especially d ones dat fly anyhow then hit a wall and land upside down. Its very hard for them to turn and after much struggle they die |

Cockroaches have a more stable center of gravity upside down, as such dey maintain balance in dat position when they die. 1 Like 1 Share |

Cockraches dont naturaly die upsied down.They sometimes die upsied down because when they are on their backs they cant get up so they do nothing and just die. Creatures with exoskeletons frequently have a primitive muscle/blood flow circulation system tied into each other and it is hydraulic by nature. The natural state of their legs is curled up and a force of exertion combined with the pushing of blood through their legs causes them to straighten. They have fine motor control of this which allows them to move, in fact it's probably unconscious such as the way we move our limbs, the process is lsot on us we just know we can do it. Now, when the insect in question hasn't got enough food or water they grow weak, or with something like old age. So they find it harder to exert to force their legs "open" So imagine their standing on all their legs and can't summon the effort to keep the set on one side open. That side will collapse and they will tip. This causes them to roll over onto their backs. You can try this with a healthy insect and they will tilt and get back up but it's a strain and they use their legs a lot. When they are too weak to do this they are stuck, and frequently die shortly afterwards as they become too weak to right themselves. 3 Likes |

As they struggled for whatever pain of dealth they are passing through, they mostly end up with their back. By God's design, their legs are such that, they fine it difficult to return back to their belle-face-down position until death finally comes. |

Atmmachine: In America we don't have cockroaches but we have billions of rats & mosquitos,.. Which America is that. Don't be Ignorant. The fact you haven't seen one in the state you live in does not mean they don't exist. If you live in the east coast, chances are you'll probably see little roaches and not cockroaches. On the other hand, go to HOT STATES like Florida, Texas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma and you will even see FLYING COCKROACHES SEF |
