Cockroaches Cockroaches are the insects that frighten me the most. I wasn't afraid of them before, but now I can't stand them. It started when I was sleeping one day and smelled a disgusting odor. I discovered a dead cockroach under my body and its eggs on my pillow! I almost died! I jumped off my bed at once and took a bath quickly. The experience made me hate cockroaches. What I find most disgusting is when I see a cockroach fly around the room. I'm always afraid that they m1ght land on me. Hearing the sound of its wings makes me nervous and afraid. Cockroaches pose a threat to our daily lives. A dirty environment will attract many cockroaches and this may threaten our health. They pollute food and water and bring many illnesses, such as dysentery and skin diseases. I can't help shivering at the sight of them.
