My mother used a flyswatter on palmetto bugs ... or the heel of her shoe. She liked to hear them pop.
<shudder>Have I mentioned how utterly ruthless my mother could be?

I don't like to hear them pop, but I do prefer them stone-dead!
And Bear, did the dream involve roaches or sharks of any kind?

After catching a lot of flies and ladybugs in my house last fall (fortunately since then I've managed to keep them out), I have to admit there's a certain satisfaction in hearing/feeling them pop. It kind of reminds me of popping those plastic curly-q's that they use to stuff packages for mailing.
