Can a roach survive a nuclear bomb?
Yes and No. Yes if they are in an enclosed space they are immune to radiation given off from a nuclear bomb. Also, If they are in an enclosed space or underground then they will be able to survive the shock wave and ground zero. No, if they are above ground when the shock wave comes around they will be killed just like any other thing. (By the way when i say enclosed space i mean really enclosed like inside a phone pole r something) But chances are they will die at ground zero. The only real dangers to them are the shock wave and ground zero

I think we can get a little more detailed here! Roaches' favorite food is, of course, your leftovers. But they eat a lot of other surprising things:
- Paper and Glue: Cockroaches are known to eat paper and glue, especially if the materials are old or damp and moldy.
- Body Waste: These bugs can feed off the waste of people and animals.
They eat a few other things too - nasty buggers!
