I’m a Scot by heritage, so I have sympathy for your plight. Calling them “cockroaches” is unfair to bugs. And, if we are to believe the scientists, cockroaches will be around long after the human species is gone. Not a good thing...
What about “Orcs?” If “nithings” doesn’t work for you, how about “Orcs?”
