| Why Do Roaches Face Upwards When Dead? by chocolateme(op): 7:47pm On Apr 20, 2015 |
I have tried to understand why they face upwards when dead.. when u spray your house with anti pests control insecticides, the following morning you wake up to see all of them lying on their backs facing up, what do u think could be the reason for that? |

Turns out that they breathe from there...and the insecticide asphyxiates them so they turn downside up to breathe easier. That's what my layman mind read somewhere tho'...Google woulda helped sha. 1 Like |

I think, that happens when they are struggling for life/oxygen.. then no power to turn again, so you meet it dead upsidedown 1 Like |

Folakeme:eyaa! Must u put it that way? Now u've got my emotions feeling bad for killing them. I don't kill rats, if i happen to catch any alive, one look into their eyes, I start feeling pity then release them to the streets. |
