The cockroach lore that has been scaring us for years is mostly true. Roaches can live for 20 days without food, 14 days without water; they can flatten their bodies and crawl through a crack thinner than a dime; they can eat huge doses of carcinogens and still die of old age. They'll eat almost anything-regular food, leather, glue, hair, paper, even the starch in book bindings. They sense the slightest breeze, and they can react and start running in .05 seconds; they can also remain motionless for days. And if all this isn't creepy enough, they can fly too!

Non Example: The cockroach lore that has been scaring us for years is mostly true. Almost every tale we have heard about cockroaches is true. These tales have been disheartening people for generations. No one seems to believe that it is possible to control roaches.
