Default Easy way to catch/kill roaches

Tools needed: 1 small container with a screw-on lid.

What you do is you slowly walk up to the roach, let it walk around for a small amount (no sudden movements by you) and then, quickly, put the container on top of the roach and hold it there.

Now, leave the roach like this until it begins to get a little curious and starts moving towards your hand...give it a few seconds and then do a quick test of lifting the cup up ever so slightly. If the roach stays where it is, quickly move the cup up and screw the lid on. Otherwise, put the cup down and repeat this step until it works.

With the lid screwed on, shake the cup as rapidly as you can and in all sorts of directions. Keep doing this until you can tell you have given the roach a concussion.

At this point, go to the nearest toilet, unscrew the lid, dump the roach in, and flush.

Wash container afterwards (it will smell really bad).

PS, I wouldn't recommend using that container for ANYTHING ELSE after that...let it be your roach catching container
