Why is a woodlouse called a cheesybug in kent?

i dont know why it is just kent (and the north of kent to be more specific) but the reason for a number of areas of the UK to associate the woodlouse with cheese is because the woodlouse carries its eggs on the underside of its body until it hatches. this has the appearance of the smegma that can collect around the penis, belly button, or toes. it is a basic suggestion that this might be the same material. but it is not.

for clarification smegma is not a cheese either, it is dead skin cells and bacteria that creates an aroma that is described as 'cheesy'

What happens if a roach gets into your ear while you sleep how does it feel And what happens if it gets to your brain?

If a cockroach attempted to crawl into your ear while you slept, the sensation would most likely wake you up. I would imagine it would feel quite peculiar, and most likely uncomfortable, but take heart in the fact that a roach, being one of the larger insects, could not effectively fit into your ear and therefore could not reach your brain. Also, the ear does not directly connect to the brain, except via wires and nerves, and as such only microscopic organisms could manage the trip.

My advice is to lay off the weed and hire a better exterminator if you have fears of bugs crawling in your ears at night. You would feel like a sigarat burn
