Aussie cockroaches are full-on. Half a spray can and they're still moving. They're pretty noncholant too. But no way do they compare with the thumb-sized variety in Korea which can jump off walls.

The NZ weta ain't quite an insect (related to crawfish or something)

growing up we use to get the spray can and a lighter.. was the only way
you could use a whole can on them and it would just turn into a snowman but wouldnt kill them... best way, have your cat take care of them.. or blowtorch them, and you know when your 12 years old the blowtorch method is way cool...
