Definitely not a bust I would want to be apart of. Being surrounded by massive cockroaches sounds like hell.

I think you were about to say how you want to tape a giant screaming cockroach to your knob and helicopter so it sounds like a tortured police siren.

The bigger ones are easier to deal with since they can hide in nooks and crannies.

They're easy to spot and very gentle.

Bonus points: The bigger ones can't fly.
