It is clearly immoral to kill (or at least cause suffering to) “normal” animals such as cows and dogs. Does this also apply to cockroaches, ants, etc.?

Killing without suffering is not animal cruelty. I don’t even know if cockroaches suffer (because of their level of awareness). Simply killing is certainly not appropriate. But if necessary, I don’t think there is a problem.
