Why Cockroaches May Very Well Survive A Nuclear Explosion
Written by Malcolm Trotter on November 4, 2009 – 7:59 am -
They may be small, but cockroaches are made from far sterner stuff than you or me. Cockroaches can live through levels of radiation exposure which would kill humans in short order. Our biology and that of cockroaches fundamentally differs, permitting them to easily survive doses of radiation which would kill us. The differences are many, but Sydney Termite Control can tell you about the most important points.
As a human, we can only withstand around 5 rems of radiation before our body’s tissue starts to deteriorate. So if a nuclear explosion came along; POOF, we’re gone. However, the abilities of a cockroach to withstand one are unbelievable. In fact, they have the ability to withstand anywhere from 67,500 rems to over 100,000. Big difference right? Well, these levels are equivalent to the rems produced by a thermonuclear explosion!
Cockroaches might be much smaller than us, but no one can argue that they’re not tough. If you’ve got an infestation of cockroaches in your home, it’s anything but easy to rid yourself of them. You’ll need the help of reliable experts who know everything about cockroaches; experts such as Sydney Termite Control. These pest control experts can answer your cockroach questions and help you put a stop to your cockroach problems for good.
Unlike other companies, they ask for the details of your pest problem; STC knows that each household’s pest problems are unique and present their own challenges. Most pest control companies only go after the adult cockroaches; so you’ll be overrun with the next generation in a month or two! Instead of providing this incomplete solution, Sydney Pest Control finds and eliminates not just the adults, but the eggs to provide a long term solution to cockroach problems.
Seriously, if you’re trying to get rid of your problem, why try to do it alone? It’s like decapitating a cockroach if you take this route. Oh, by the way if you do take the head off a cockroach, it will still be able to live for several weeks without food and water. Crazy right? Well, these are the types of things you need to know when you’re dealing with cockroaches.
While you’re not likely to have a nuclear explosion in your home (which wouldn’t work anyway), you no doubt don’t want to have cockroaches around for your own sake; as well as that of your family, friends and anyone else. If you have cockroaches in your home, take action right away. Call Sydney Termite Control and get rid of them once and for all.
Oh and by the way, just to give you another illustration of how tough of an enemy you’re up against when trying to take on cockroaches, they can live for months with only postage stamp adhesive as nourishment!
Yep it’s a crazy world we live in, but there is no sense in wasting anymore time. If you do, you’ll end up regretting it. We can definitely guarantee it.
