"No survivors were found on the group exposed to 100,000 rads. It may imply that the dose would be enough to kill cockroaches; but think about it, 1,000 rads alone is lethal enough for the human body. Then again, even if the studies favored using nuclear radiation for pest control, the government may not hand the isotopes over so easily. The cockroaches' resistance to radiation can be credited from their slow cellular processes; their cells divide slower than humans, making them less susceptible to radiation. For now, Jacksonville pest extermination companies like BugManiacs prefer the tried-and-tested way of pesticides, bug baits, and the like. It's definitely better than carrying a portable reactor while wearing a hazmat suit."
