Cockroach

This is the first time I had a roach enter my room since I moved out, and because I didn't expect it to happen, I didn't have any spray to kill it. But it won't get out no matter how hard I tried so I cut an empty gallon and trapped it with it. I slipped a paper beneath the gallon and tapped the edges so it won't accidently open.

Then I immediately check out a cockroach killer spray, but of course it'll not arrive until a few days later. So I just have a trapped cockroach in my room for a few days. But now the spray already arrived but I don't feel like killing it with that. I kinda want to see how long it will take for that damn roach to die.

It's trapped with a little oxygen cause I didn't cover the whole edges with duct tape so there are probably some small holes for air to get in. Of course I didn't give it any food or water.

I searched online and it says roaches can live a month without food, a week without water, and 45 minutes with oxygen (this is also why I'm sure the trap isn't covered properly). Let's see if it'll die in a week or a month.

Hi, you can just put a paper or piece of cardboard just something underneath it, lift it up, open the window and throw it out. Or just leave the paper near it so it can go there by itself then throw it since they are so jumpy.. that’s how i do if i found one

You sound like an edgy pre-teen. Either kill it or let it go. Keeping it trapped until it eventually dies is just disgusting cruelty.
