What Is A Blunt Roach?
Blunt roaches are the leftovers of a cannabis cigarette. The roach is the portion of the blunt that remains after you put out the rest of the joint. While some people dispose of the roach after one use, others choose to keep it in case they need to relight it later. This is especially common among people who smoke cannabis in “social settings.” Blunt roaches are also a popular item for sale on the internet. They’re sold as novelty items, and some people use them for novelty games.

1. Respiratory system
The blunt roach is a large insect, the size of a small mouse. Roaches are not poisonous, but their large size and sharp claws can cause serious injuries if ingested.
2. Digestive system
Roaches are scavengers of human and animal waste, so ingesting one can carry with it the risk of contracting diseases from fecal contamination or other harmful substances or bacteria. This can lead to symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, fever, and abdominal pain. If you suspect that you have ingested a roach or know someone who has done so and developed these symptoms, please seek medical attention immediately
3. Skin
Because roaches are scavengers and will eat just about anything, ingesting one can also lead to skin irritation. If you believe that you have ingested a blunt roach, please seek medical attention immediately.
4. Neurological system

How To Avoid Swallowing A Blunt Roach?
- Do not use a blunt smoking device. Instead, opt for a pipe or bong. The heat from a blunt usually exceeds a thousand degrees Fahrenheit, which is dangerous. Blunts have a reputation for being a “safer” option, but they are actually very dangerous, especially when they are packed with a combination of tobacco and cannabis. When smoking a blunt, do not inhale too deeply, and make sure that the tip of the blunt is glowing red before you put it to your lips.
- Do not drink alcohol. Drinking alcohol will make you less cautious, which can increase your chances of accidentally swallowing a blunt roach.
- If you do accidentally swallow a blunt, do not panic and seek immediate medical attention. This is important because blunt smoke is known to cause lung damage and symptoms like shortness of breath and wheezing.
- If you are the person who swallowed the blunt, do not panic, but rather seek urgent medical attention as soon as possible. This is because smoking cannabis can lead to feelings of euphoria that make it easy to forget that your throat may be burning or that there may be something lodged in your throat or stomach. While it is unlikely that a person would swallow their own blunt if they did they could potentially be very sick with symptoms such as coughing up blood or vomiting blood, or worse yet they could die from choking on the blunt while they are unconscious or in an altered state of consciousness.
- If you are a friend or family member of someone who swallowed their blunt, seeks medical attention immediately as well. The symptoms of smoking cannabis can be similar to those of choking on a roach and can cause severe illness or even death.
- If you got rid of the blunt accidentally and it was not in your mouth when you threw it out, do not panic. There is no need to seek medical attention unless your symptoms persist for several hours afterward, such as persistent coughing, chest pain, or difficulty breathing, or if there is blood in your phlegm.
- If you have a blunt at home, be sure to put it in a sealed container immediately. The same goes for pipes and bongs as well. There is a risk that someone could find you blunt and smoke it without realizing what the substance is.
- Do not leave the blunt where children can get to it, or else they could end up smoking it or accidentally swallowing it.
- If you want to smoke cannabis with friends, do not pass around blunt roaches that are already on fire. This is because the heat from one fire-roasted blunt can ignite another one nearby and cause an explosion of flames that could burn down your house.
- If a friend or family member requests that you show them how to smoke a blunt, do not oblige them. This is because it is possible that they do not know what to do and could end up smoking the blunt while they are unaware of the dangers involved.
