The yellow powder is REALLY good.
I get mukade climb up from my bathroom and I left a sprinkle of the yellow stuff around my genkan and around windows. I always find the giant ones dead along the yellow powder when I come home. |

I don't have mukade but when I see one outside it's enough to stop my heart for a couple seconds.

Man, that powder works wonders... but when you live in an apartment that has balconies on the first floor, you have to powder the perimeter of the entire apartment (aka ask the neighbors if its okay)... otherwise they'll just climb up the wall and get in throughthe vents.
I'm on the first floor of my apartment and there are GAPS inbetween my wall, floorboard, and floor. So no wonder these suckaz have an easy time getting in my place. Luckily I haven't had any ENORMOUS ones... just ones the size of my pinky finger. I've called meelynn before when I found one I think. Fun times. One actually poked his head out from under the floorboard while I was pissing. I was like OH FUCK NO and got the bug spray.

I think the oil/freezing spray would be the most satisfying. Or you could have a bucket with a lid full of bleach, scoop the fucking thing up, and drown it in bleach. Probably more work than it's worth, but it would be totally brutal to drown it in bleach.

Their central nervous systems aren't developed enough to feel pain (same goes for lobsters, btw). I hear drowning them in oil is the most satisfying because they suffocate.

Joking aside, I'm going to also vouch for the powder.
Since I went all Chemical Ali with it around my house, I have yet to see a single mukade or roach in my house.

Found a roach in my sink after work yesterday. That fucking time of year again. I'm beginning to think that freezing my ballocks off in winter wasnt so bad at all given the lack of these horrible pieces of shit.

I've heard that hair spray is great because they can't move when it goes hard. They then suffocate. I've never bothered trying it though. I always grab the bug spray. Remember to not let it get away after you spray it because then you'll never know if you got it or not

I don't know about mukade, but I know I've heard similar things about roaches and other kinds of insects and some spiders breathing through spiracles like that, and one of the ways I heard you can kill them is throwing a handful of baby powder on them. The powder is so fine that it gets inside the spiracles (the holes in the exoskeleton they breathe through) and clogs up their breathing passages and suffocates them. I'd give it a shot, sounds like fun.

Here's the way I used to deal with these hellish creatures.
When you see one, get masking or duct tape and lay it on top of the mother. It'll stick to it and be stuck. You can easily dispose of it in the garbage this way, too. You may want to put another layer of duct tape on it just in case. Then, like a couple of the other posters have already mentioned, get some アース (earth) powder and put it around the perimeter of your house/apt. Finally, get some sleep.

I found a roach in my apartment during my stay in Japan and frebreezed the sucker to death. It was quite satisfying. I will keep a bottle of baby oil and this magic yellow powder on hand when I go back, I never did see one of the mukade critters.
