How I breed cockroaches in my bedroom

Since one year, I have found a new hobby I enjoy much: breeding cockroaches !
I make efforts to keep them in my bedroom so when I receive people, they don't get disturbed.
They feel comfortable since they have made a first fecal local point under my bed where I leave some old newspapers (they like paper) and a second, less noticeable, between my wardrobe and the wall.
I'm used to eat in my bed especially when it's peanuts or bread with still some flour on it : they love that !
I pay much attention to their well-being keeping my curtains closed for instance as they prefer when the room is dark.
Sometimes, I deem necessary to let them go to my bathroom so they can socialize with the neighbourhood (they travel fast through the tubes).
They are pretty numerous since two or three months and I admit it starts being really hard not to squash some :-/
Sadly, it happens sometimes and it makes me feel guilty. When it occurs, what do I do ? Throwing them to the toilets, you say ? You're crazy ... I want to preserve the eggs which are resistant enough for not getting broken in such dramatic accidents so I put them in my rubbish bag. Then, I (im)patiently wait till the babies have hatched out :-)

If you want to become a cockroaches lover like me, I can offer you few, give you some tips about how to have well-educated cockroaches and in good health :-)

Why the hell don't you just breed them in a tank?
I breed roaches but they are food for my dragons....really don't see why anyone would actually let them run free in your room, you must have one dirty living habits...

By or even make a container to keep them in man, jeez, show some culture...Sigh

How fast do they breed? It's been raining alot for the past to weeks and the temperature has been dropping. I've seen one or the same sprayed one every night for the past three nights in the same area (seemingly coming in from my garage or a nearby outside door) and it's freaking me out because I know if you see one, there are a bunch more waiting. I find roaches so repulsive and want to know if its too late to get them the hell out of my house without calling the Orkin man. Will glue traps, roach bait and a heavy dosage of raid along cracks and garage doors do?
