I would assume definitely No, Some say even Dogs have none (I disagree), just plain thoughts and instincts,
So how can a cockroach with nothing but a (lacking) central nervous system can possibly "remember" some place as being dangerous?
If you attempt a kill at some point yet it escapes, It is bound to return there later and you will have another go at it, right?
So how come I've seen it there several times within an hour while I did nothing, but ever since I did try and miss, several hours have past and its still isn't back so I may try again?!

Preoccupied with the habits of cockroaches eh? I've been there...
The simple truth is that you have to give your kitchen a thorough cleaning. No food pieces anywhere, no cockroaches. At least from my experience

I remember that episode! It was one of the weird ones, like the one where a microwave told a wife to kill her husband

I know and I have it. But I assume that one "works" as you play a "possessed" cockroach, thus it can have much more brain power?
Though I'm not really sure how is that supposed to be contained within that body, technically.
Maybe Your Soul is outside, without a body at all, but the cockroach is all you can control until you get pack to your own body.
That being said, unless this cockroach I was talking about is possessed too, I doubt it helps me much...

Well I did wikipedia it and even went as far as checking a Science institute website,
but they only mentioned brain and nervous system functionality. No definite conclusion there but an assumption they don't.
Well this study is quite scary. Also interesting stuff.
