They creep me out too, but I don't kill them either. I actually ordered a tool online specifically for the purpose of catching them and releasing them outside. I got that after a sizable cockroach crawled on my foot one night when the lights were off. I freaked out so hard that it ended up escaping because it was overwhelmed by my reaction. I was crying, I felt very bad, and I was paranoid all night when I tried to sleep.
