A pest control company in America is offering homeowners US$2,000 if they will allow 100 cockroaches to be released into their houses.
It's part of a scientific study being conducted by The Pest Informer, testing a "specific pest control technique," to gauge how effective the treatment is.
Five to seven creepy-crawly tolerant volunteers are being sought, and participants must be aged at least 21 years, own their own home or have written approval from the property's owner.
If the cockroaches are not eliminated at the end of the study, additional treatment options will be used at no cost.
UK-based feminist author, Antonella Gambotto-Burke, is claiming that babies who are bottle-fed or use dummies are more likely to develop "rubber fetishism" in later life.
The controversial idea is one of several theories about birth and infancy in her just-released new work called Apple: Sex, Drugs, Motherhood and the Recovery of the Feminine which she said "aims to strike a devastating uppercut to a partiarchal ideology that has marred billions of lives".
She says she's the first person ever to link rubber fetishism to bottle feeding, saying "babies who suck on, smell and fiddle with rubber or synthetic rubber-teated bottles and dummies will quite naturally crave the same sensations in later life".
