Terminix erects live cockroach billboard in Dallas.

(click image) Cockroaches were inserted into this "E-COLI" board near Mockingbird Station. It was up for one day only, Monday. According to the Dallas Observer, the roaches were given 15-minute breaks in order to keep them from baking in the sun. Video below. PETA hate letter tk. Ad agency: Publicis Dallas.
Previous live animal billboard ads: Bees (save the bees) • Fish (for a German seafood restaurant) • and Tadpoles (playing sperm for the movie Knocked Up).

So, the message is, "there are cockroaches in ecoli." Get it? Er, no, the message is "e coli is in the cockroaches that are in the e coli." Wait, no, that's confusing. The real message is, "cockroaches are everywhere, even in…" I give up. What the fuck is the message?

Oh, God, Dallas, I am reminded once again why I left you.

There's a certain enjoyability in watching a cockroach-killing company have to take measures to protect the lives of a bunch of cockroaches.
