AAAHH!! Kill kill kill! I want them DEAD!! AAAHH!!
Two feet of snow still in the yard, sun comes out and poof!

...Millions of these guys, crawlin' all over the house. In through the cracks in the doors and goodness knows where else.

I love all of Earth's creatures, but eww!! I hate finding one of these guys in my water glass, or on a chair, or crawling over my hand, or climbing on me off the couch, or... EEWWW!!

2. What are they? Just-hatched cockroaches?
Do they get bigger than that? Do they fly?
