    Step on it.

    Most humAN way?

    Do it yourself...since your asking for the most human way rather than the most humane way.

    Ensure no animals or machines take the pleasure of crunching them into bug juice.

    Seriously, you need to buy coachroach killer, not fly strips or spray. Roaches are a very resistant pest to rid of.

    It would be like treating HIV with aspirin.

    You could spray it with alcohol. The alcohol will eat through the waxy coating of his exoskeleton and burn his insides, bringing him to a slow and painful death.

    Oh, you meant humane way? Stomp him.

    Your question give me feeling that you belong to Jain or Budh religion. Better to handover to your neighbour, they will kill for you. If you will not kill cockroach it can live without food for six months.

    most human way is to feel revolted and smack it with something made of paper.

    most humane way is the hydrogen bomb. supposedly you need to get it real close, though.
