Occasionally, we here in South Florida have similar moments, where we find the need to hoist the black flag, or Raid, depending on what's handier at the moment, and spray.

Take flying cochroaches. Please, take all you can, we got plenty. 2+ inches, and friendly as heck. Not afraid of the light anymore, reckon that was genetically mutated out of them with the advent of modern electrical lights.

But it was the "slitting throats" reference that threw me, though. See, slitting a roach throat wouldn't do a lot, 'cept to make it harder for 'em to swallow for a while. Ya'd have to stab the buggers along the sides where the spiracles are, cut off their breathing. Can't go for the brain, either - it's splayed along the belly side. Cut off it's head, you'll numb a bit of the nervous system, that's all. Besides, last time I tried, the doggone thing ran off with my kagas katne.

But I found out I'm Class 3 qualified, and am in the process of procuring a suppressed Ruger 10-22 w/laser aiming module. That'll impress the little buggers!

If I can find out where they hid my box of .22s.....

Nick, if your roaches ever team up with our South Louisiana mosquitos we're gonna be in a heap of trouble. Around here we have to tie lead weights around our kids to keep the mosquitos from flying off with them.

Then again, no one seems to have picked up on the difference between HIKV sufferers and normal folks. Normal folks wish they could slit a few throats. HIKV folks don't slit, they lop and chop.

Far as them pesky insects a stroke with the flat of the blade turns your khuk from a rifle to a shotgun.
