They can withstand some of the deadliest weapons on earth, yet you can kill them with a shoe.

Meh, they're been here longer than humans and will probably outlive us all.

I guess they can only get killed by physical force....a bullet is certain to kill one as where a deadly gas might not affect it..

The roach is also one of the hardiest insects on the planet, capable of living for a month without food and remaining alive headless for up to a week. It can also hold its breath for 45 minutes and has the ability to slow down its heart rate. Cockroaches also have a very high resistance to radiation.

That's what they have to do with radiation.

Although the radiation might not kill them, the initial heat and all the other effects of a nuclear explosion should. And there's always the unlucky roach that gets hit dead on by the nuke. That's physical force, right?

It'd be dead before it knew it though. It wouldn't even take one one millionth of a second for it to die.

'Cause one of the chemicals in RAID (I forgot what it's called, but it starts with a "p") attack the insects' central nervous system.

That pretty much applies to anything hit by a nuke...

How? The time is unmeasurable to a human, you can't even think about it. I doubt there's anyone with a good grasp on it, if you think about how long one is, you've probably wasted millions of them just in that timeframe.
