Anyone still feeling resentment towards their ex might be dreading Valentine's Day coming up with the heart shaped chocolate and red roses plastering the supermarket shelves.
A zoo in Toronto, Canada, could help heal that wound as they've offered people the chance to name a cockroach after their ex this Valentine's Day. Jilted lovers have pounced on the chance to get this last laugh with the zoo being inundated with requests.
It's not just exes who can be the target of this as the cockroaches can be named after bosses, old best friends, a neighbor, or any other pest too.
Toronto Zoo's cockroach campaign reads: "Roses are red; violets are blue… Is there someone in your life that’s bugging you? Give them goosebumps by naming a cockroach in their honor this Valentine's Day".
Scorned lovers could name one, or more, of the zoo's cockroaches by filling in a form online "in honor" of the person of their choosing. They will then receive a digital certificate with the roach's name, and even a shareable digital graphic.
Unfortunately for anyone looking for a Valentine's Day pick me up, the zoo has now closed the competition after far too many people wanted to take part.
