How can I outwit the wily cockroach?
How can I outwit the wily cockroach? The coackroach is very aware of danger because
tiny hairs on its rear end signal changes in the direction of the
air flowing around its body. When it feels a puff of air on its
bottom, it hurries away quickly. However, if a vacuum cleaner
approaches from the rear, the suction of the nozzle blows the hairs
on its head. The cockroach then thinks that it is being attacked
from the front, and will turn and run straight into the vacuum
cleaner’s nozzle. 5 JULY 2000
