This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
It releases the smell. It stays around in the room.
I can't smell ants but I can smell roaches. Any house or restaurant I walk into that has that signature roach scent, I do a 180° and leave.
As to describe the scent of roaches: Pungent, wet/moldy towel smell, worse when they're dead.
We need people like you as health inspectors.
You know, I feel like I know that smell as well. Not anywhere NEAR as pungent as the ant smell, but I've been in some... Unfortunate situations with enough roaches that I can conjure up that smell.
Wait I thought wveryone can smell roaches
Well, now I can't help but wonder if burning them is better or worse.
Probably better, I've never tried it. I just imagine a bunch of tiny fireballs running around.
In my experience it's way better, and that having a candle burning will usually clear up the scent of a crush in relatively short order.
